billy im not crazy bastard lol
few questions

1. How does something smell lean?
2. how does the the "lean" problem get fixed by the car going leaner?
3. 2 and 3 look lean but not 1 or 4?

and it really seems to me that you are talking about the afr's at an idle. How do they look under cruising and under wide open throttle?

What is there to show me... you just told me what the afrs were and they are not lean. Not sure what to tell you.

But i am still interested in finding out what "lean" smells like

Is it spelled right? Squeaking? It happens on and off.

When was the last time you replaced your pads. They could be starting to go bad. Also, some pads just squeak from dust. What pads are you running??

True dat, the pads on my '05 VW GLI squeaked all the damn time. Finally drove me crazy so I traded that thing in for my Evo!!! Best move I ever made when it comes to vehicle purchases.
