Default Re: What Maintenance Do *You* Usually Do?

Wash the car? Only in a touchless automatic carwash. The stickers managed to stay on.

I am capable on switching wheels and pads. Otherwise I put the gas in and load and unload from the trailer. I can check tire pressures and temperatures.

I wish I had the time to do more but not at this point.

I installed a suspension once in my E46 M3. After finally managing to get the upper control arm installed after unbolting the diff and hammering on the body to fit the wrench in I decided I can pay someone else to suffer the same. I am doing it for fun.

Once I build my house with a proper garage (or a garage with a house) I'll do more.

Welcome to our community.
Well, may not be the ultimate Garage Mahal but I figure it should keep all the current vehicles in the family (4) plus one more space with a lift and separable from the rest by a partition.

What puzzles me is when someone spends high six figures or even low seven figures building a custom house and they only get a 2 car garage. With available land not being an issue. In Canada where cars freeze into solid rock in winter. I like my cars to be room temperature when I get into them.

I like this forum. I hope nobody posts a question about retrofitting rear seats in a GT3.
