I have notice my gas mileage went up quite a bit, probably because of me driving too much in S mode and flying on McCowan Rd . lol, just kidding, I don't speed!
My Son came Home with a broken exhaust pipe reducer, this is the reducer (OD 2.75 inch to ID 2.25 inch Reducer) that we use to join the stock Golf exhaust piping (55mm) to the GTI Exhaust piping (65mm). Bought a new reduce (OD 2.75 inch to ID 2.25 inch), a 2 3/4 inch clamp and a 2 1/4 inch clamp at Canadian Tire. Worked with my Son to take off the rusty old parts, an air chisel makes short work stripping off the rusty pieces of the old reducer off of the stainless steel piping. Clamping on the new reducer was a piece of cake.

Just hit 283,000 km. Did some work over the last month getting a camera, radio, battery. I even made a custom phone dock for the dash. Gonna do my oil on friday. Have to replace the front calipers at some point as the passenger side is rusted and sometimes doesn't release. New rotors and pads in the mail. Snow tires will be on soon (not looking forward to bad speedo again as snow tires are shorter sidewall). Found out my windshield washer fluid tank has a hole in it as well. I'm gonna wait till 300k to do the valve cover gasket and spark plugs at the same time. Just a quick update on everything that's happened since my trip to thunder Bay and back in September/August.

Phone dock is cool, would be awesome if you could actually dock it and charge

It docks, charges, and connects to android auto... See I put a connector in the bottom. I'll take a photo of it tomorrow with my phone in it. Pretty interesting to wire it up behind everything.Phone dock is cool, would be awesome if you could actually dock it and charge

It's the pioneer dmh-2600nex I got it on sale for about $500 cad. The usb port is in the back of it, which allowed me to wire it down behind the climate control.
