Fwiw, stuck with the Mike Miller recs here. Red Line 75w90 for the diff and Red Line MTL for the trans. Zero issues after multiple 30K runs on both.
Miss you guys!! Love following things on FB seeing the kids and that awesome new ride!!
It was definitely a curve ball. I rolled the dice on the solve. Better to be lucky than smart!!
Thanks! Always feels like home when I drop in.
I saw the EWS come up in some threads. THe weird dash/interior lights saved me from chasing this one with lots of parts, thankfully.

Greetings from the past, mia familia.

Good call on the new reservoir. It's worth noting as we get up in mileage that there is a non-replaceable filter in the reservoir that can get junked up over time and cause issues.
If you haven't...

I still love the ZHP and I'm glad I kept her, but the Alfa is imo a very worthy replacement. Lack of manual trans notwithstanding, I...
Thanks gents!! Much appreciated.
Thanks, brother! Life is grace and timing. Better to be lucky than smart!

Great write up that hits the nail on the head-- good and bad.

:thumbup Happy to report mine is still working like a charm 6 years later.
+1 on trying for the BMW glass. I swung for the fences with a cracked windshield a few months back and NJ Manufacturers covered it. The Safelite guy couldn't believe they approved factory glass for a...
Good stuff, right? I think 2019 will see me in the Quadrifoglio. It's just spanking everything...

Good pickup by two of my favorite peeps. I went conservative with the base Giulia. Seats were one of the compromises.
The Ti has a sport seat option that gives you the deeper bolsters.

Beautiful!!!
Exactly. So many things remind me of the ZHP. She's like a modern incarnation.
I told Marc yesterday that I have zero desire to drive the ZHP right now. She's that good.
