Maintenance is very easy, and the brake pads last FOREVER. It’s a great car for teaching driving to teens. It holds a LOT. I brought a boxed...
There is an electrical connection to the EGR. You could check that.
True, but you understand that lost transmission oil changes are done by professional shops, and they store all sorts of fluids and lubricants.
I don’t think there is a factory recommendation to replace them, just the rubber intake manifold and throttle body gaskets. Many people don’t...
Yes, there is a metal gasket between the EGR cooler and exhaust manifold/pipe.
I have a question. Many people are installing the catch can next to the inverter, about 24” or so above the PCV valve. So the air + oil vapor...
Great! I just sent the three of you a private message to choose a date. If you already installed a catch can, maybe you can give us advice or show...

I’ve done it with a pump and also with a funnel/hose. I think the pump approach is better, because with the long funnel/tube, once the tranny is...

I’ve been trying to round people up for months! We have room to work on two cars at a time, so if we’re fast we should be able to get through...
No catch can yet. Next time!
Success!!! @Pacific Seaglass came by with his 2013, 140,000 mile Gen III. We pulled the EGR and cooler out and it was a good thing! The cooler was...
