Km's...well, the odometer says 138,000 as of today...but that gets added on to the 71,000 that was on the original odometer (it was replaced under recall or TSB in 2005 by Civic Motors Honda on St.Laurent), though I can't for the life of me, figure out why they didn't adjust it to reflect the true mileage.
I got the Syntec Edge oil and a Fram double-guard filter, and will change to that for now until I can prove the engine on a couple of longer trips, after which time I might go to Royal Purple or Amzoil. Sticking with the OEM recommended 5W-30 for now too.
The deck has completely buggered up now (I think it's the faceplate or it's connectors), as it will only show the demo mode, and ZERO of the buttons work. I think I won't even bother going with another Sony deck after seeing this happen to this one. I will likely go back to a JVC, as I had nothing but success with theirs. Either that, or a Kenwood (there is a nice one they wanna sell me at FS on Bank Street for $99 to get it out of their inventory). I will redirect my stereo info to the ICE forum from here on out.
I'm happy that all of the accessories on the car work, especially the A/C and cruise. I'm also happy that I've got that 2nd set of steel wheels and tires for the car too that the guy just threw in the trunk (195/55 R15 87V Barum Bravuris 2's)...2 of them are fine still, at least 1 more season/year left in them, the other 2 (likely what where on front) are almost bald. I got a quote from Golden Tire on St.Laurent for $125.00 each, taxes in, hung and spun. My dad said this is a good price on tires like that.
After my drive to Brantford next week, I'll be able to report back on how things are going.
L8tz!
