DIY Work

  • Engine oil change
  • Oil filter replacement

During the winter I had been running 20W-60, which is a pretty thick oil, and the engine felt heavy to start with noticeably more vibration.
Switching to 10W-40 made it a lot smoother — very happy with the change.
Also, I started buying oil in pail cans instead of 5L jugs, which is saving me some money.

Mini overview

I also removed the mirrors and bumpers to wash them separately, doubling as a rust check.

Suspension condition

All clean now.
