Tech inspection results

[Jinx]

Nothing noted about the brake fluid. I checked
And the color is very clear. It is in fact hard to
Tell it's level. Nothing noted on previous service
Records about fluid flushes behind done.

I just ordered from Pelican Parts a boot,
Inner and outer clamps and grease for
$18.75. I'll have my local import guy
Install it. Since I am not following the
Dealer's advice by not waiting for the
Joint to fail.

Thanks to all. Jinx

Stupid question why would the dealer tell me
To wait? Of course my FORMER local guy wanted to
Know why I was replacing my headlamps from
Stock to Sylvania Silverstar ZXE's . I no longer
Use him for my service.

Plus, "slinging grease and DE" are never a good combo.

You need a brake fluid flush. Our local PCA rules require this prior to a high speed event. Most do. Be safe.

Nice looking car. I think you made the right choice. Your in the ARPCA region check and see who they use.

Thanks to everyone for the quick responses.
Scheduling the flush and boot replacement
Today. Please have a great and safe fourth.
With love

I've heard that using other than the stock halogen bulbs will cause the lens to burn brown from the inside. I use ZXE's on two of my other cars, but have spoken to several dealer mechanics who strongly recommended that I not use them on my 986. I'd love to put them in, but I don't want brown lenses.
