2011 TL SHAWD Tech

I've had this girl for 3 years now and love it. Happy that the previous owner had the front and rear chrome painted to match the body. Only issues I've had with her have been the #2 & #3 cats.

I've only used 93 octane and sometimes it's 100%. The first #2 went out back in the spring and since there isn't a sensor on #3 it was most likely going bad as well. Didn't have the first repair done by my dealer so only #2 was repaired. #3 was repaired on Monday and she's back to running like the day I got her.

before I could get an appointment with my dealer I took it somewhere else who performed a valve adjustment instead of checking the cats. They also performed a programming; not sure what there is to program. I think I got screwed there but glad it's running great now.
