What did you do to your other rides today? [2026 Edition]

Ahhh, the fun of German engineering. Replaced my a/c compressor after it seized last fall, just to have moved the front OEM plastic intake pipe and cold side charge pipe enough to create a turbo boost leak to chase down. Decided to replace hot and cold side charge pipes, intake pipes and intake. Got all that done and then chased down a crankcase vacuum issue that was pulling air in past the front crank shaft gasket. Got that dealt with with a new PCV valve, breather tube and oil cap. All good for about 200 miles and then the overflow tank decided to tell me to f'off. Replaced that, purged it, and, dare I say, all seems to be good now 🙏🤞
Don't worry. It's already plotting against you...

Two Porsches, one Beemer and one Benz in the current stable for my herd of humans. The cabbage burners are ALWAYS plotting against you.

Yes, have had a few, but this is my first with turbos.
72 Bug for my first car
2005 R1200RT my last set of 2-wheels

There is always something to do, but thankfully I can do most of it myself.
 
2026 Ranger Raptor, Added Foutz Light Bar, 5 LP4's with Actuators, and got my upgraded turbos. Waiting on Downpipes, Intercooler, and Cobb Access Port to arrive.
