toomany MBZ: Tossing a bottle of cetane boost in the trunk is a good idea, thanks.
vstech: I run dedicate winter and summer tires. When installing the winter tires this weekend I filled the tires to just shy of max pressure (per the sidewall) with nitrogen
. Checked and topped off pressure in the spare since it was out of it's hole. And yes the belt and hoses are almost new being replaced as part of the engine work.
Simpler=Better: Don't have heated seats, instead I have the dealer installed German sheepskins. I do however have a AAA Premier card - regardless of where I breakdown, it's home I want it to end up via a flat bed.
