I've had a double whammy due to replacing the gearbox oil with the recommended viscosity during my last service. I just felt a little scared with the slight increase in gear whine with the lighter oil. But it's no quieter with the heavier stuff so i'll change it back next service. I also removed my belly pan as i have an inspection this week and it also needed a repair job due to me hitting some deep water at a higher-than-i-should-have speed.....doh!
Aaand....it's gotten colder here too. And wetter, much wetter:Clean-up begins after worst flooding in 10 years | IOL

Ah well, at least i'll be able to improve on my last bellypan effort (and maybe do something about those wheel skirts)......if it would just stop raining already!!!!
