    Ninja maintaining his composure with all the interruptions. Suggest to always check the wire harness below the rear fuse panel on those E70's for water ingress corrosion. The crimped CAN Bus wires need to be soldered and sealed. Cause all kinds of strange intermittent faults. Water leaks in from the hatch seals..they need to be silicone along with the rear lights.

    I would love to see you collaborate with the Kansas car tuber's and build a car to race next year at the Kansas Airstrip Attack in Independence Kansas next year. Build a 230 mph 1/2 mile car. That would beat this year's cars. You, Hoovie, Watch Jr Go, Elliott, and the rest of the gang.

    Heater control valve went bad in December on my 2003 Lincoln LS 3.9. No heat! Dumb mechanic pulled the dash thinking I had a blend door issue and the car does not even have a blend door. I found the heater control valve dirt cheap and put it in myself.

    Jonny, what are your feelings on people who don't seem to open the hood ever. On the car with the coolant pump issue, there were leaves under the hood. Either the owner never opened the hood, as you should do to check fluid levels, or the owner opened the hood and couldn't be bothered to clear out leaves and any other detritus.
    I guess owners like that probably are less careful and have more issues, so that's more money for your shop. 😂

    • @alexcallas8222
