i like to have everything easily accessible in my phone. plus i’m not all that familiar with auto repair/servicing so i have to get a tad OCD about it. if i am not mistaken this is a mashup of information from the mud FAQ’s formatted through the owners manual information.
not sure if anyone will find it useful but through to post it. obviously if experienced LC/LX owners have corrections or suggestions i’m all ears.
formatting is a little screwed up in the cut and paste but if anyone is interested i could post the text document after i proof it.
if something similar is out there already i’d be interested in a link.
