Filled my SpeedHoles™ with foglights. Didn't end up rolling with OEM because I don't have the cash to drop a couple hundred on em right now :/

Rolled over to MA for my daughters emergency surgery, slept three hours in th parking lot using a stolen Delta airlines blanket, just saw in recovery. All good, minus a small redundant body part.

I hope all your P80s , P2s , and P-kids/family are well today...

Yo, abscate, Was it a defective appendix? Sis had that last year.

Makes today's headlight and parking light replacements seem minor.

Got VMplayer to operate on my 2007 XC70 today! All I could get were DTCs. Can someone verify how I can get graphic readings such as AFR, MAF rate, TB angle and such? What tabs do you start those graphics readings with? Searched under Work List, Diagnostics, Software but couldn't find the tools.

Torsioned girl part. In medicine the gold standard of most painful conditions. After 12 hours of pain, she walked 3 hours after a 2 hour operation without pain killers, describing it as 1/10 compared to the previous night.

She’s home with us for a few, back to school mid week.
