Oh my sweet, sweet cars. How I love each every every one of- what what was that noise? Why are you doing that? I don’t think that is a healthy car smell! Shit.

Here is a boring list one makes in lieu of actually doing maintenance:

Alfa

Figure out where and how air is getting into the cooling system

Improve cooling system bleed valve

Land Rover

Driver’s rear tail light (inop)

Replace FR wheel sensor

A bunch of other little stuff

Saab

Figure out why it won’t tepid start

Fix fuel leak

Pull and test fuel accumulator

Pull carpet to dry out

Honda

OK at the moment?

Volvo

Ok at the moment?

What’s a “tepid start”?

I had trouble with my 03 Civic running super rough for a few seconds  about a minute after tepid starting. Never did figure it out and got rid of it instead. It ran completely fine under all other conditions.

GTI- Tires, done; oil change, done; needs rear brakes. Post-winter interior clean done.

MINI-Needs oil change but pretty much fine otherwise. Booked for Thursday. Also filthy.

Jaguar-Well I once filled a whole sheet of paper. Changed the dif oil the other day. Planning a major brake overhaul (MC leaks a little, pulls left, hand brake inop ). Could use suspension bushings, seats recovered, new headliner, dash refinished, new speakers…

TR6- new brake light switch and it should be good to go!
