SST fluid change is easy!

Dancaauto.com has some sweet deals on fluid.

Hes a member on here as well Dan123ac I believe

It was like 290 I believe for 8 quarts of OEM fluid and a filter to my door.
Hooked me up on LSD fluid on my next order
If you buy anything from him do me a solid and say Dave Wilson sent you!

Somebody should sticky that right there. I spent 3 days looking for a reasonable source. This would have saved my about $80!

At least I know where im going to buy all my PLX stuff once I knock off the bank! Best prices I've seen on that too

Yea man, Hes got good prices and hes wicked easy to talk to and seems very knowledgeable with these cars.

He has his own brand of SST fluid as well

I guess he has a ton of miles on his car, I was gonna buy it but He didn't have any in stock at the time.

Never had anything break I do the trans flush every 30k now the car has 92k on it and runs fine. 0 codes but when I move to wv I'm gonna take the hi flow cat off and get a test pipe. Dang Maryland and their emissions laws.

Checking in.... 145,000 Miles. Since my battery replacement back in 2014, I have had to do a few things such as replacing a busted drivers side front axle and a seized rear caliper. I am currently in debate of replacing the Turbo/Exhaust manifold with OEM. I wanted to also note I am on my 3rd SST Fluid Flush. She has no slip....I do not drive hard and most of my driving is highway in 6th gear. Cheers & Happy Friday.

Good to know blackmamba! 84 000km here, have changed SST oils once and plan to do it this summer again. Rear right caliper seized for me as well, the piston had corroded and got stuck. Rear diff oil seals were changed due to leakage. Did some preventive maintenance on the ACD pump, it was removed and cleaned from corrosion. Let's hope she hangs on another 80k!

2009 WW Ralliart, have about 135000KM, transmission seems like it doesn't catch when in first (revs to like 2000 before it seems like it has power to it) also will roll back alot but i think thats normal, shifting seems fine.

I Will probably do the SST fluid change soon, recently replaced Relays and Battery, I am driving it until it inevitably blows up. Another note, it is COB Stage 3 but its probably ruining the car so i'll be taking to turbo back off and detuning.

95,000 miles 09 WW
Been turbo swapped since 30k miles about 4 years ago or so.
Running like a champ.
I do keep up with the maintenance schedule though. Rear brake pads finally wore down and changing them this weekend.

I have an 09 with 116,xxx miles with test pipe and catback, evo 9 BOV and K&N air filter. Only major problem is the mechanic thinks I have crank walk.. I also belived the transmittion needs tuning but it works as a daily and is still fun to drive.
