Re: AOS replacement

So, in a series of funny events today, I found my car stumbled heavy on the verge of stalling out after pulling the oil cap. All signs point to AOS. How much of a pain is this job? My shop (where I work and keep all my tools) is closed, so this is going to be a driveway repair. Also, I remember the...

Re: What did you do to/with your 996 today?

A youngster in a murdered-out AMG GT with "MLNNIAL" vanity plates and I both exhibited a stunning amount of self-control on the freeway early this morning - which was nice, since it prevented me from being publicly humiliated by said Mercedes. I tried against a GLC63 AMG a couple of days ...

The tires like to mold themselves to that beam in the front and leaves for flat spots. When they built our new dealership, the parts department got fancy racks like those. They didn't...
