Yeah only thing I’ve done is a Nameless axleback but I’ve had it on over a year now so I don’t think it caused a leak.

Maybe an O2 sensor? You are still under warranty, right?

Nah. It's not the axleback nor will that affect warranty work. Just let the dealer handle it. Prolly like Ho said - o2 sensor.

NOJZ is a good one. Maybe get a lemonade themed plate with it. How about:
GT88, as in two cylinders better than a GT86, you think.
NOMNUAL because automatics are for bitches.
PD2MUCH because you will have.
OVRWGHT because it is.
BMWSBCH because you will be.
BMWWNBE because it is.
NOTTYTA because it isn't.
BDGEJOB because it is.
LNGNOSE because look at that thing.

There are certain ways new stuff makes sense. I didn't want ear taint on my in-ear headphones. New receivers handle 4k, HDR, and many channels of audio that I will never use. Also... that's about it. Honestly the Mac speakers I have are so good, and I never listen to them, so there's no point in going better. My kids won't listen loud, so there's no reason to even add a sub.

Thanks for confirming, one friend mentioned how it could be the axleback but I was a bit surprised if that were the case given how long it's been installed for.

I'll try and get an appointment sometime in the next week or so.

I'd assume it's fine to drive around as normal otherwise, right?

Because they started life as a Dollar Store egg timer but didn't sell so Subaru bought the whole lot and used them as clocks.

Reminds me of when I bought my Dodge truck in '05. I had it about a week or so. It was Friday about 3:00PM in the afternoon, and we were leaving for the lake at o'dark thirty the next morning, and the truck threw a code. I went straight to the dealer and explained I need it fixed now because I need to pull a boat 350 miles in the morning, and will be gone for 2 weeks.


They were very good at the dealer, and the service manager called for a tech to come out with the reader. He did his thing and prolly same code, oxygen sensor. Tech says, "go on vacation, don't worry about it. You'll just pollute a little more than normal. We will put a new sensor in when you get back." What a relief.

I guess one other question... Any chance this could be related to me hopping the curb a couple days ago? Someone was saying I could've fucked up a cat or something.. But I was only going 3-5mph max and I still think only the side skirt actually hit/bounced off of the curb.
