After getting in haste a beautiful
99 TIP 55k miles 10 months prior, I've lurked around and evaluated ton of postings about fears and pleasant points of this car.
Appreciating JFP in PA, Jake Raby, all other wise gentlemen here and witty comments; grin .. , moral sin to sky angel with top up.......
And upgraded followings mostly about safety issues with my indie mechanic qualified in Porsche and Audi here in Seoul;
-LN IMS retrofit dual row at
cam deviation 3 degree, RMS
-Tensioner pads all checked and intact
-160F Tstat, Water pump, Radiators cleaned, Coolant refreshing
-Full flow spin-on oil filter w/ FilterMag SS300 90lbs
-Transmission filter, fluid refreshed
Only DIY

is rear logo here , although I've been inclined to keep all the stock shape of exteriors and interiors during my 35 driving years. That's the first exception.
Thanks members.
