Still haven't swapped my pads and 3 rotors. It's amazing how little motivation I have when it doesn't add scene points 🤣

Although, have the SCS coil ground kit that I grabbed from the classifieds here that should arrive tomorrow. Maybe I'll finally spend some time in the garage.

So shit got half (60%?) done at least.

Got the coil ground harness in.

I need to replace the connector on the left, I broke it before when I was changing my sparkplugs. Part is like $8, just need to remember to toss it on an order next time I order stuff.

Got the front brakes done. Passenger side rotor (drivers side was replaced when they prepped the car for sale, but not the passenger side for some reason), and pads on both sides.

Hopefully it solves my dust problem up front.

I didn't get the rears done. OBD11 was being a pain in the ass in regards to retracting the electronic parking brake, and didn't feel like continuing to fight it. So pads and rotors on the rears didn't get done. A project for another day.

Added a VCDS cable to my Christmas list. I love OBD11 for the portability and the fact that you don't need a cable\computer, but don't need it being a pain in the ass when I'm trying to get things done.

Yea battery jump box hooked up to the probes from your multimeter, then use that to turn the motor for the parking brake.

You wouldn't do it though.

Pusey.

If I recall, the rear brakes on the Taos ended up not getting changed...
