Newer is not necessarily better!
If you have low coolant warning and it only loses a little go hunt it down anyway, when it decides to turn into a lot it WILL be at the most inconvenient time/place.
Even with a massive leak you can abuse the V6 engine to un-thought of levels and it will still run.
Take the pi$$ and it will give up on you.
Stripping it down to oil cooler level is a breeze.
VX need a kick in the nads for making the injector riser so tight to get out.
The ABS ECU is not only as bad as people say to get out, it's worse.
VX need a kick in the nads for placing it there, 6 screws and 2 connectors should be a 10 min job.
People who change these things for a living don't get paid enough!!
This post has been brought to you by 5 hours of ABS ECU removal, you think of all sorts of things as you curse away.
