A little VX pamperin' this week...

Hey Biju,

If I buy you a plane ticket to Reno will you come and do the same for my ebony?

I’ve been a good VX dad this week. Since my Proton is now my daily ride I needed to catch her up to speed with some service and attention. She got spoiled:

• Cleaned EGR valve removing carbon build up and replaced EGR gasket
• Cleaned throttle body removing carbon build up
• Replaced fuel filter
• Lubed chassis
• Replaced transmission filter
• Flushed transmission fluid with RP Max ATF
• Flushed power steering fluid with RP Max EZ
• Flushed TOD/transfer case with RP Max ATF
• Changed front diff fluid with RP 75W90 gear oil
• Changed rear diff fluid with RP 75W140 gear oil
• Flushed cooling system and added RP Purple Ice
• Replaced fuel tank sender unit to fix dancing fuel gauge (didn’t fix it tho)
• Changed oil with RP 5W30 w/ Mobil 1 filter
• Replaced PCV valve and grommet
• Repacked front bearings
• Flushed brake system
• Replaced brake lines with Independent 4X braided kit
• Replaced rotors with R1 Concepts drilled/slotted rotors
• Replaced brake pads with OEM pads
• Lubed window tracks with silicon spray
• Installed PIAA Super Graphite windshield wipers

She’s purrrin’ and loving it. Man it feels good knowing she’s all set…

Not a chance, nephew! I'm gonna be eatin' mac-n-cheese for a few weeks to make up for that little splurge. Man, the things we sacrifice for this disease...

Man! I just replaced the transmission oil / filter, steering oil, and oil change (Royal Purple) and was out-of-pocket $250.....just like that!

I need to change the serpentine belt and replace brake pads....

Where did you get your baby serviced? Dealership?
