190,00 Oil / Filter change - NAPA synth 10W-30, Wix Filter. Interval change is short pertaining to mileage, but son only drives it a few blocks to work each day - so engine doesn't warm up. He's been instructed to drive it for 20-30 minutes once a week.
Attempted driver's side axle replacement, but could not get old one (eEuroparts China Unit) removed from transmission. Local Indie repair shop had to remove passenger axle and pound through the transmission to remove. Stated 1 in 200 axles are like that.

Replaced driver's side front and rear doors w/ used units from yard after side-swipe incident while vehicle was parked as son's work.
