And today is not Sunday funday for me.

Take car out of the garage. Low tire pressure. Hmm. Look at the DIC tpms readout, rear driver tire 8 lbs lower than the rest. Great. Check with manual gauge, yup 8lbs low.

Play the game of roll forward then check, rinse repeat. Nail dead center of tread. So this coming Friday when I’m off will go get it patched. Joy.

We had a Valero, it's gone now. We have Marathon as well. They were BP.

Forgot about Marathon. They just started showing up here. The BPs here split the market share it seems. Half the BP stores are Marathon stores now.

Best of luck with the patch.

Mentioned before that I took mine to a Goodyear shop a while back and they patched for FREE. Your mileage may vary.

Yeah Goodyear patches them free as does discount tire. I will be hitting one of those two up this coming Friday (my next day off work). Luckily it’s not losing air bad and is center of tire tread.

Question? So I am ready for my first oil change, look in my owners manual to see how many quarts of oil I need for my v6 and it says 5.5 quarts without auxiliary cooler and 6 quarts without auxiliary cooler. How am I supposed to know if my car has an auxiliary cooler or not? LGX 3.6L V6. Thanks.

Look if you have
V18 COOLER-ENGINE COOLANT, AUX I think this is it what you’re looking for.

I haven’t verified this yet. But if I remember correctly....All coupes have the auxiliary coolers while the convertibles do not.
