EuroCarFan gets old real quick... ECF is much easier. Same with vegastrashed... Socal peeps just shortened it to VT. Works for me.
Only one way to find out.
Made the correction.
It's not the Patron. It's your subconscious telling you to get a Valentine One and a ECU reflash.

I was thinking that too when Brad was applying his Blue Bra. Felt bad after seeing all the bug splatter on your car when we arrived in Gilroy. Hopefully, you didn't suffer any chips after cleanning it up.
I am there for the Saratoga Springs run, BTW...
We can always just meet up for lunch or something in the meantime. ECU (hehe) has my cell number.
Hey EFU your not going to believe this, but my oil level did not drop even 0.1L and has been sitting at 0.7L since before we left for SLO. Sure hope it is reading correctly, though especially after the runs. I am hoping the rings are just seated nicely. Maybe 08's have changed something. My salesman said I would only have to worry about if for the first 3,000 miles but he didn't really know d!ck about the car, I am sure. Maybe he was right about this, though.
I was puring oil into my 2001 E39 M5, don't miss that...

HAHA, The ECU yes, but I like my Passport and it seemed to pick up signals as well all of the V1s. Only problem is I don't think I can trade up in the future, but I can reflash with USB and it is abnormally quite as far as false alarms. Kind of neat how it flashes my GPS speed too.

!!! But in my defense it was late since I had to make up work due to the weekend EFU NOW! I honestly can't believe it! And that was a true mistake! I really wasn't trying to pick on you, Tony and it was not any sort of FU joke, sorry ECF! there I think I finally got it right 
You guys are so nice that you did not even call me on it (EuroCarFan, sure you were think WTF)
"WTF" -Great, got that one correct. Maybe I should stay away from using acronyms for a bit, though!
As far as the oil that is wierd, but the manual says something about it will not register if you do not add less than 0.5L mine will probably just drop to 0.2L all at once or something from what I have read. I'll be changing the oil soon, anyway then I can see what was in it.

I didn't even pick up on the "FU" part of "EFU." All I noticed was you butchered "ECF" again.

HAHAHAHA...I thought you were piggy backing on your mistakes and just using every acronym but the correct one to call me by. LOL! No offense taken buddy.
As for the oil, I think mine is due for one soon or if not, I'll just pay to have one day out of schedule. Seems like a good idea after those spirited runs.
