Just thought it would be a great way to discuss what members have been doing to their cars recently.

Today I did an oil change and gave it a wash.

Hahaha, the key is to plan the oil changes the same weekend the kids come to town. That way I can have them do the work while I dictate and have a Bourbon.

Tell me about your alignment tools/setup, please. Maybe a link?

I used the Quick Trick Alignment kit Gen 5. The stands are Atlas Alignment Stands from tooltopia.

Replaced my front tires.

Haters gonna hate, but I replaced my Firestone Indy 500 tires with another pair of them. They work fine for me and that is all I need to know.

Lingenfelter has one thats the exact same just different screen printing. Or look up acdelco cover its a gm accessories part
Finally got some issues sorted out, which resulted in moving away from the solid roller/lifter setup I had before... And to a new hydraulic setup.

Got to drive her around for the first time in about 2 years, and the Huron Speed kit is getting installed as we speak.

Life has sure been complicated over the last couple of years, finally starting to calm down somewhat.

This fucking chirping noise is driving me up a wall. It sounds like it's coming from the first cat on the driver side. Does anyone else get this noise on their car during cold starts?
I sprung for the Grom VL2 Vline.
Please report back after you get it installed have some time with it, I really don't like my Navtool anymore too many issues.

I definitely will. I did a good bit of research and this seemed to check all the boxes. I wanted Android Auto without swapping the deck, BT audio streaming, and I wanted to run a backup camera since I have a 2010.

I'm very hopeful this works as advertised.

It’s your muffler bearing.

It does. Fairly simple to install.
