The WS6 hit 100k miles today, just getting broken in. Car needs a detail and I need a better camera, but I still have fun.

I just had some work done to it, and it still needs a little more. The stock power steering cooler had a pinhole in it, and it was leaking coolant into the power steering fluid. Looked like chocolate milk. Took out the PS cooler and replaced it with a regular upper radiator hose, no need to cool the power steering fluid as the earlier years didn't have a cooler and had no problems. Flushed the PS system a half-dozen times, still has some residue in it. Will keep an eye on it.

I think my water pump is leaking, so I will replace that along with a new thermostat and flush the cooling system. Also need new belts, they have a slight squeal when cold. Probably also going to flush the transmission fluid, and maybe the clutch fluid.

Other than that, she just got an oil change and is running great. :thumbsup:

It's a rental house, the owner of the house needs to do a little work. But the garage has epoxy flooring and is big enough for my roommate's 19' bass boat and my car side by side, so we're happy.
 
You should have contemplated setting your trip meter so it could read 99,999 miles and 99.9 trip or 999.9 trip.

I forgot to do my 06 VW jetta for the 999.9 trip but I did do 99.9 trip 😀 It looked cool.

I had just changed the oil, and to reset the oil change light you need to hold down the trip meter reset button for 10 seconds. So this resets the trip meter as well. I usually reset it every fill-up to see what my gas mileage is. Average is around 18mpg... :\
