Today I hit 140,000. Last week I changed out my Blower Motor.
did you use a kit? do you mind sharing? thanksSwapped out all rear bulbs for LED. I had already previously changed the license plate lights and turn signals. Now I did all the brake, tail and reverse lights. Now all 3 of our cars are fully LED except for the head and fog lights.
photo shows the old bulbs on the left side, new ones on the right.

No kit, I just went to superbrightleds.com and ordered the bulbs that fit the car.did you use a kit? do you mind sharing? thanks
Yeah, I lift one corner at a time to rotate tires with a spare. Now I have installed new set of tires, I’ll have Discount Tire Store to rotate them for me, save me some work.Saturday I did a two'fer, oil change and tire rotation. Getting this car up on 4 jack stands is quite difficult, maybe because of the car's size and height compared to my other cars. I tried using my Flyin Miata slotted jack pad to lift the side of the car from the center of the side pinch weld, similar to how I lift my Miata up on each side. Seemed to work okay, but I had to extend the jack stands up pretty far to get all 4 tires off the ground. I think I need larger stands.
And actually the rear left corner never even touched the stand during the whole job, for some weird reason. I had them all at the same height and everything.
Discount Tire will rotate your OEM tires for free. There was no need to wait to buy from them.Yeah, I lift one corner at a time to rotate tires with a spare. Now I have installed new set of tires, I’ll have Discount Tire Store to rotate them for me, save me some work.

Really? I know they’ve fixed the flat on my OE tires for free several times. I had them marked the valve stem position to the tire so that the balancing wasn’t needed. I’ve to wait for my next new car purchase to find out if they’d rotate my OE tires for free. But a friend of mine he paid $21 per tire for all tire services provided by the DT for new OE tires on his 2017 Lexus RX back then.Discount Tire will rotate your OEM tires for free.

Yes, been going there for years. It's really a good business decision, as I always buy replacements from them.Really? I know they’ve fixed the flat on my OE tires for free several times.

so that requires a total of 5 "lifts" with wheel remove/replace, plus getting the spare tire out and putting it back away again. I guess it's not terrible, but I was changing the oil at the same time which is why I went ahead and just put it on 4 jack stands.Yeah, I lift one corner at a time to rotate tires with a spare.

Have you checked the rear anti-sway bar links?
Looks good, can you post a sound clip so we can hear what it sounds like?Recently replaced stock exhaust with a "Racing Beat Power Pulse" axel back exhaust.
Really like it. Nice sporting tone, no obnoxious, buzzing, droning noise.
