Ok I am about to purchase. 1) I will need to buy the radio removal tools from Becker, right? 2) I'm leaving the bluetooth device behind the console, correct? It will tether from there I'm hoping.

How much oil should be on my dipstick?

On the way home after filling up, I noticed the oil reader was abnormally low. I changed the oil only a few months ago.

Checked the dipstick and there was not an insignificant amount on there,...

I think you have the causal relationship reversed here. :cheers:



The key is to keep your mouth closed when they indulge in their less expensive, less impractical hobbies or purchases.

Been thinking about removing it for a while now. This has probably convinced me. Love the minimalism, not a fan of branding. That said, I'm thinking about the brake light but also concerned people...

Ok that was it. The plate has been removed (was splitting in half). Mechanic says it's not a drastically important part, but I'll probably get it replaced down the road. Sounded so awful, relieved...

An addendum: the bottom protective plate is quite obviously out of place. Maybe 2 or 3 inches removed from where it should be. I would have taken a picture but I have left my phone at home.

Repetitive slapping noise under 2000 S

Yesterday I noticed a fairly loud, repetitive slapping noise happening under the car, passenger side. It will not begin until I hit 22-25 mph and will get more intense the faster I go. I just looked...

Same. Although mine was not cared for properly when I purchased so I knew I would be replacing it for safety and aesthetic reasons. It had to be around 60F when it cracked.

Ok I figured out the hooks. Took a lot of time, but hopefully now they will stay in place.

I mentioned earlier that the glass was laying flat next to the rollbar. Well, I'm pretty sure the edge of...

Glass window is on! The problems with visibility are overstated, imo. You can easily see headlights. Only thing that's cut off is the top of taller vehicles. And if your plastic window was as clouded...

Time for a new top. Asking a few questions.

So the temperature drop claimed my plastic window this weekend (only 52 degrees F though?). Now I'm in the market for a glass window. I'm looking at GAHH. Here's where I'm at:

Got quoted $1250 for...

Who is ready for top-down season?

...in Florida. No more 100 degree weather. No more menacing summer sun but a kinder, gentler autumnal sun.

Apologies if you are putting on winter tires or storing for summer. Well...sorta. :D
