Hello friends,

Happy sunday, I hope all of your projects are going well.

Today I was doing some basic maintenance. Swapped out the license plate cover with a liqui moly one I got from Super lap battle, looking super sweet!

Added some air in my tires due to the fluctuation in the weather. Hopefully I can get around to getting some new tires this year. Even though I don't drive often, the continentals I have on have a manufactured date back in 2016. They're just barely starting to develop dry rot and I think it's just their time. Regardless, they've been an awesome set and definitely will be getting the new generation soon.

Checked around the engine bay and noticed my ground strap (part no. 12427621168) is looking a bit corroded. I think it's time to replace, so I'll look around to see where I can get a decent price on it

Other than that, the only thing that is of concern is the middle exhaust hanger right past the down pipe. It seems to be slipping off as when I adjusted the exhaust to move over, about a month later I noticed it had moved off the hanger a touch again. Not really sure what to do since I don't know what causes it other than extra vibration in the exhaust after the ER down pipe and AA axleback. Whatever the case may be, it's only a bit of rattle so it's more of an annoyance than actual issue.

Still watching my timing chain's slack as well. Things still seem to be good and with 60k miles now on the clock, the time is ticking till those chains decide to say goodbye.

Thank y'all for sticking around and until the next post!
