Got mine back out of the body shop Friday, fixing my stuipdity. Then today I did a manual regen using my CTS2!!! It worked great, not that I would want to do one like that every time but I could see how it could come in helpful in some cases. :jester:

Up until recently she had a mild ticking sound exactly within the 2k rpm range but during this weekend's drive it was entirely gone. The oil was changed recently so maybe it did the trick, and something I've noticed is that driving her more does more good than harm.

 

After a 1,200 mile road trip in July the water pump stopped leaking, I haven't had to add any water since then!

Today I swapped the 2 firefly poor excuses for back-up lights for LEDs. Will take pictures tonight.

 

Pretty hard to tell during the day even on a cloudy day. These have 3 LEDs pointing back through a lens and 3 pointing towards the reflector. I just did a bench test and I'll be seeing spots for an hour. You cannot look at the LED one dead on while the halogen looks like a firefly by comparison. Test was performed at 13 Volts and down 2 f stops so you could see something other than white. Couldn't take a picture headon the LED so had to take it at a slight angle.
I will post picture as soon as photobucket is back up.

What bulbs did you use? I have been meaning to look into this. Backing up at night is brutal with my tint plus the stock "fireflies"

I just got some cheap T10 LEDs off of ebay or some China site to see if it would be better, it is way better. If they don't last I'll get more expensive ones.

 

I believe these were the ones, I ordered a spare at that price. It says 30W I don't think this means 30 Watts, may mean it puts out equivalent to 30 Watts halogen bulb.

I measured a regular 921 (the ones that were in) at just under 2 Watts and the LEDs at 3 Watts. So maybe there's a missing decimal point. Or just a selling scam.
