I'm back!!!!!

Hello all!

Its been a while, i used to be pretty active on here a few years ago when i had an 05 TL. she went away for a G35. and since then its been family vehicles.

Well recently the planets aligned and i got my hands on a very nice 2008 NBP TL. It has 105k miles but is in nice condition.

Just had her inspected, she needs EGR Valve (yes it might just need cleaned, but car has 50/50 warranty split with dealer), Side motor mount, front motor mount and the bluetooth module is dead. but all those i can resolve with the dealer warranty the car came with.

I know she is due the 105k service, so im shopping it around vs doing it myself. Im gonna do the sparks myself in 3000 miles after she runs through an Auto-RX treatment in the crank case. i have already Seafoamed in the gas tank to clean that side of it.

2 little additions to the family since the last time i was here means less time to service the car myself. But i wont just throw money away if i can take care of it in a fairly decent amount of time.

Looking forward to getting back to being involved in the boards and will see any of you other members around the Fort Worth area!

I live in the Saginaw area and often down in the SFW area if you want to get together. Fairly new myself and would be cool to get together with an AZine member and exchange tips. PM if you're down.

So adding a few pictures...these are just from when i went to look at her. She looks a lil cleaner now. She is in shop getting bluetooth fixed, 2 engine mounts, the EVAP/Fuel Cap issue, bushings.

I messages ScottWax here in Arlington about getting her cleaned up real good. Waiting to hear from him.

















Nice condition of drivers seat.
