ironbut Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Best not to dwell on it IMHO. Enjoy that new car smell and find some new favorite roads. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Enigma Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 I think it's safe to say my friends and family will not be browsing a car thread on a headphone forum and know who this grandenigma person is.

HemiSam Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 That's great, Dreadhead. I suggest you do your best to get the coolant out of the engine bay if the dealership did not. If you let it cool, wet the engine bay with the water hose at the house at lower pressure and apply Simple Green and let it sit a while, you'll be surprised how effective it can be. You can apply pressure with a rag or the like for tough spots if need be...watch the aluminum / metals and paint bits and if you have dark plastic valve cover(s). Once the coolant gets baked on, it's much more difficult to deal with (i.e. polishing compound type hard). Car looks great. Enjoy!

I took a look and they did a pretty good job but it is obviously still on engine block as the smell isn't gone yet.

Combi Coccoro, they are amazing compact car seats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Enigma Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Was looking at those the other day. $600 in new car seats is definitely cheaper than a mini van 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 and you'd feel really bad if Chris in the cheap ford beat Jeff in the S4. In a contest between breeder wagons, no harm no foul. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPI Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 XT and ST have identical 0-60 so it seems the better match. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
