Hey, how's it going? My name's TristeTurismo because I play video games.

I know barely anything about cars or life in general. I've had a 2007 TL for the past 3 years, and it's my only car. It's the 3.2L Nav configuration with an automatic transmission.
It's been having a midlife crisis lately, and the repairs are starting to really eat into my budget. I'd like to learn how to do basic repairs and maintenance myself to save money, preserve my sanity, and get some valuable self-sufficiency skills. I've lurked on this forum in the past; I learned how to reset the ECM from here, because my car thinks I'm 95 years old.

I'd post a picture, but it's embarrassingly dirty at the moment.

Freshly washed and waxed. You can barely see it from all the bloom.
Boy, that rotor sure is brown. It got a mean suntan.

Thank you!
I haven't mentioned how much I love this car. It's the best car I've ever owned, and I intend to be it's final owner.
I'd be open for some upgrades, too. A car this fun deserves to be more fun.
