You can max out camber and drill hole for adjuster.Too bad you can't do this in Street Touring classes for AutoX
Close. Flips up into a funnel when you top off whatever is in your washer fluid bottle.Flip up urinal cap?
Thanks! I was the same thing before I saw your post. Thinking wtf did he installed a urinal on there?Flip up urinal cap?
Changed the oil, swapped out a broken window switch (has anyone had this happen to them before? I am super gentle on everything and it just snapped on me) and finally got around to swap out my old headlights, it was $$ but worth it.

Also found out my RMS is leaking? It was so little though... I think its only happening under boost, bc I have never seen a drop of oil where I park....
I did tune it and swaped the PCV for a BL rev. during this last oil change interval (5k mi ago)..... It could be finally failing under higher boost... or the new PCV was bad?
I have also noticed a bit of "sweat" around the cam bridge cover....thats new, and it has always sweated around the oil cap...
It would also never consume oil, at least not enough to need to be refilled... this time I had to add ~0.7 QT in the 5k mi....
I guess Ill keep an eye on it.... hopefully I can do it all at once with the clutch, which is still holding Stage 2 great....
I have a broken window switch too, just snapped off randomly one day. I haven’t bothered to change it.
Would definitely suspect your new PCV is bad. That’s the worst case scenario casing a RMS leak
I've had my window switch giving me issues trying to put the drivers window down once. Overtime the switch was super loose. I was able to wiggle the switch up and down. Eventually, I pressed down so hard trying to put the window down and shit broke. Replacement was cheap.Changed the oil, swapped out a broken window switch (has anyone had this happen to them before?

Not a complete break like that, but my switch for the left rear window did have the chrome foil flake up a couple of months ago, nearly cutting my finger. A few minutes with a utility knife and a small file, and the foil is gone, or smoothed enough to not be a problem. The difference from the other switches isn't noticeable enough for me to swap out the whole panel just yet. I guess the chrome accents are the MK7 equivalent of the MK4 soft-touch material?swapped out a broken window switch (has anyone had this happen to them before?

Yikes! Were you driving through Home Depot???
