Hello World!

Hey everyone, very very long time lurker and decided to finally create an account.

Reason why I haven't created an account is that I am 100% mechanically challenged so I live vicariously through everyone's passion with what they have done to their cars.
For now I'll continue to lurk but hello everyone!

=)

Hi Ascension!

Yes, it's a 2004 TL... this is an old pic but she's still running, currently at 145K!

Bought her used back in 2010, before the infamous cracked dash and torn up seats.

Hey there! Yup, I had a transmission fluid flushed 2 months ago. Knock on wood, I didn't really have any issues with the transmission at the time, no gears were slipping but at my mileage I thought it was the right thing to do.
The folks that did the flush only used authentic Honda trans fluid....

The cracked dash really drives my OCD insane.....

Mine are all original intact, and I do everything to keep them that way, but when/if they crack I'll pick up one of these for $55...
