When was the last time you guys changed the fuel filter?

I had amazing gas mileage until i changed to a new fuel filter after 6 years. Now the car pulls and runs smoother but eats more gas.

For reals! I love turning off the ASR and taking sharp turns at full throttle to swing the back around, great ***** of fire!

anti-slip something.... basically traction control... u can turn it off...there'll be this huge orange triangle with an exclamation mark right in the middle of the speedo if u deactivate it... not sure if ur 97 would have it...

ASR= Acceration Slip Regulation. Traction control by a different name. It wa the most obnoxious aspect about my C36, now it's just the LSD.

I didn't think any USA C36's got LSD? Does you diff have the special tag that says to use special oil in German?
