It is a wonder that you didn't buy a Performance Boutique N54 Billet Valve Cover Socks.

Car is giving us grief again

This time with a DTC error so logging will have to wait a bit longer
We think the problem is related to installing a new tire on the passenger side after it got puncture and wrecked the side wall.

Now it has one new tire and a slightly worn tire (circa 5000 km wear) and the sensors are picking up a slight difference in the rotational speed and throwing the DTC error

Ordered another new tire and booked it in for fitting and alignment next week.

Hope that sorts out the problem..... sigh
