When collecting my car from the independent garage they told me that the cabin filter had been changed. This was at 30k service. My first thought was they were just lining their pockets and I thought I might have to find a new garage. Then they showed me the filter. I was surprised at how dirty it was at such low kilometers and I thought our air quality is quite high.

"Do not ask the stones or the trees how to live , they can not tell you ; they do not have tongues, do not ask the wise man how to live for, if he knows, he will know he cannot tell you; if you would learn how to live, do not ask the question, its answer is not in the question but in the answer, which is not in words; do not ask how to live, but, instead, proceed to do so."

i was really working the wheel. i believe it was mostly during practice of reverse j-turns. basically over-running left/right steering wheel movements. hard snap one way to initiate, then a hard crank the other way to catch the front as it came around. during the hard crank to catch the front end as it's rotating around, i'd basically spin the wheel faster than the car could keep up with.

I do find that limitation of EPS quite annoying. I've never had it cut out but it doesn't like having the steering wheel spun. I miss the pure feel of the manual steering gear in my Z.
