Well...day one of detailing is complete..
Engine bay (and no water in top end of engine...know about that)..lots of Q-tips, gentle cleaner, and compressed air>>
Did the undercarriage area to... boy does that spare tire carrier collect dust!
Here is the diff area>>
NOW I NEED ADVICE>>>>
In this pic (driver side of engine) there is a device that have a pipe coming from it...looks like there should be a hose attached but there is none... anybody comment plz>>>
Red ---> is pointing to the item in question
Jack points...rear one is obvious but looks like there are two possible jack points in the front... I have marked them as A---> & B---> can either be used? (I have a four arm sissor lift)
Also I have heard two very different views on jacking up car (again will be using a four point sissor lift... one is to keep all doors and hatch closed and the other is to have doors and hatch open...to me it makes sense to have closed... comments please
Lastly...when I remove the air cleaner assmebly a plastic shroud is located in the lower area where the cleaner assembly resides... here it is but I have it sitting on top so you can see it...it goes down in the area marked "Sits down here-->".. to me it restricts the air flow to the intake and also suspect it is a 'anti water' deflector type device. I do not plan to drive the car in the rain so why not keep this shroud off?? Comments plz...
Concerning the glossy interior...not sure what the prior owner used but I will be dealing with that...I use Mothers Reflection Leather car and Stoners Trim and Leather cleaner.
Last item...appears I have the drivers front speaker not functioning... never dawned on me the Bose system does not have a L R balance and only a fader......I am missing something??? Any stereo gurus here with some ideas???
Again thanks for the patience and any comments... great forum
