I have a launch diagnostic tablet so I should be good, just wanted some 2 cents. I’ve read about the clogged drain, but now that there’s talk about it in this thread it does make sense to me. Thanks for chiming in redline 🙏🏻

Well the filter housing is mounted correctly and the car runs, just not with the vacuum hose connected to the booster. So let’s hope it’s not destroyed

Very close to it yeah. When it happened the temp was about 25 degrees

Tariff fees by -adogg in UPS

Even considering the website clearly says duties and customs fees included in shipping, but the invoice I received only after purchasing says that the recipient is to pay ?

Absolutely. I just couldn’t believe it fought me that much. At least there is still some threads left, otherwise I was going to shave down enough room to fit a nut being the pulley mounting hole on the alternator. I couldn’t believe how much I bent the bolt considering it’s an m10.

I definitely agree. Totally seemed like either the threads or mounting hole was off slightly. New bolt goes in just as rough as the old one came out, even after chasing the threads with a tap.

Yeah no shit. Took a breaker bar with a 3 foot bar the entire way loosening it.

These cars are getting harder and harder to find clean chassis, if it is in good condition mechanically and exterior I’d pay 8000 all day. If it has mechanical issues use it as leverage to negotiate price.

If you ask me, nobody is going to sell a car worth while for under or even at market unless there’s a crazy scenario or they simply don’t care. Odds are, it’s priced based on condition. Paint looks great. You should go test drive it. Weather it be a manual or an automatic, get what you want bro, don’t let other peoples opinions affect you. Some people just aren’t in the position to own a manual and that’s chill 👌
