Finally got around to doing that oil change I've been putting off. 9,250 kms on the old oil, which is more than the 7,500 km interval I've been doing, but still less than the VW-mandated 15,000 kms so I'm not losing sleep over it. Will try to do better next time.
And I think I fixed that fuel line rattle that has been bugging me all winter. It's an easy fix (just remove a plastic panel under the car and stuff some foam into a gap), but I didn't feel like doing it in the cold and snow in my driveway. Car was silent after the fix, so hopefully I got it.
And I finally got the new summer tires on (Continental ExtremeContact DW). Some quick first impressions for quad: smooth and quiet with a good ride, but soft turn-in and vague feel. On an on-ramp I know well, the tires needed a bunch of little corrections and never really let me know what they were doing. On that same ramp, my old Bridgestone Potenza RE760s were rock solid: just turn the wheel and leave it there, and the car kept a perfect line. Of course, the Contis are brand new, and I'm remembering the Potenzas from last fall with only 2/32" tread...
