Mike,
How many miles when you had to do all this?

Installed a single lugnut for Ms. Pintsize last night after she lost one of her locking lugnuts on her new wheels.

Also purchased a bottle of Motul RBF600 from her for a clutch fluid bleed.

I need to do this :tup: Car idle has definitely been erratic enough to warrant it. I plan to take it a step further and clean the throttle bodies as well.

That'll be fun if you haven't bypassed the TB heater yet. :)

Got these beauties in. Hurts to have to sand down brand new factory finished paint.

:icon08: Can't tell if serious... I wasn't expecting this to be very difficult, but I'm a little gun shy after my recent failed attempt to change the brake pads on Ms. Pint's Z (something that should NOT have been as difficult as I apparently made it).

Are you just referring to the coolant lines that can be removed per this DIY?

I thought about doing that this past summer but never got around to it. I just recently drove the Z out in freezing weather for the first time, so I'm even less inclined to do it now, though I like the solenoid valve idea that someone mentioned in the DIY. If you are talking about something else entirely or just speaking to the difficulty, please, enlighten me :tiphat:

If you're talking about just the MAF sensors, then sure. If you are including the TBs, let me do mine first :p
