I will hopefully be installing new plugs and doing the MHD stage 1 flash this week.

I am going to be moving soon so I submitted a USPS change of address form online and the stupid postal worker marked our house as vacant a week before the change was supposed to take place. So, my tablet and spark plugs were returned to the senders as un-deliverable and have to be re sent...

Enjoy the car, I have done most of those mods as well. Doing a CIC retrofit right now. I would also recommend trans and diff flush to ensure a happy system. Also replace the mechatronic seal when doing the trans flush.


BE AWARE THE AWD IS A PAIN TO WORK ON. Everything is harder. Examples--You must remove the drive shaft to access the transmission fill plug (unlike the RWD) and you must remove right side axle to replace the turbos (unlke the RWD) but I love mine and the way it handles. just remember to ensure the DYI use look at addresses and AWD specific issues. It was awesome when I was in Colorado!
