Hi everyone! Back in the 90's I owned a 1992 S.H.O. for a few years!  Loved it but traded it when I had my third kid. So a few weeks ago I picked up a 2013 sterling gray metallic SHO non PP.  Feels great to be driving a SHO again and wow what a difference a couple decades makes!  This beast is a thing of beauty and a joy to drive!  Probably no major mods in the near future but so far I focused on maintenance:
Dealer performed recalls (4 were open!) and I did the following:
Changed oil
New SP534 plugs
Changed tranny fluid
Sucked oil from inter cooler (there was almost an inch in the bottom)
Changed MFT wallpaper (haha)
Next is changing fluid in PTU and RDU
Completed most of this following directions found here so I thought I'd join and give back whatever I can.  Looking forward to years of fun with my SHO and you good folks here!

Will post pics when I figure out how😬

Welcome back to the fold, majorminor, there sure is a tiny bit of difference between Gen 2 & 4 ;)  Maintenance is not flashy, but it will make the car & you VERY happy :thumb:  The sterling gray metallic is a superb color in the SHO's color range.

Pics are best uploaded to Flickr, Photobucket, imgur or other filesharing sites, then linked back here.  Images & files directly on this site are limited to 2 MB in size.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Welcome  :WELCOME:
Look forward to your input.

For images use a host. I use Photobucket (free). To post just copy the bottom link for any pic or video and paste it in your post. For an avatar I found a simple upload was best.
