Just to close this out - finally discovered that that leak was from the top of the windscreen and not the sunroof. |

I'm planning to have my injectors replaced on my 2014 L405 SCV8, which isn’t too surprising given that I’ve now crossed the 200,000 km mark. While the top of the engine is off, I’ll also be repl ... |

Recently had some pulleys and belts swapped out on my V8 SC. Since then, I’ve noticed it’s idling a bit high—anywhere from 800 to 1100 RPM when it’s warmed up. My mechanic took for a spin with ... |
