Hello everyone! I have been looking over the forums for about 6 months before I got my first 8. I would like to say thank you all for the massive amounts of info that helped me decide I wanted an 8 and how to check if it was on its last leg or not. I got my 8 about 10 months ago now and love it. Its a 2005 shinka Black Cherry verified on the 05 shinka data list. Only has 62k miles. Got at a dealer that had all the maintenance records thanks to the PO using that dealership for everything. Got a premium 4 year warranty with vehicleone.

So far I only had 1 issue and that was a bad coil pack. Thanks to the search function I was able to diagnose and find steps how to replace coils, wires and plugs. I was pleasantly surprised when the instructions were so detailed to even say what size the bolts were.

With the wealth of information here I don't see me posting the required amount of posts to unlock the other sections. Everything I would ever think of has been already answered.
