A big THANK YOU for the nice welcome !
Definitely no body kit,but I'm about to do something extreme ...

Weller Wheels involved ...

But first I need some advice about what fluids should I change and type ?
I have no history on this car (old chap ex-owner) ...

Being a 2.0l you may be tempted to overcompensate with a HUGE bodykit. Please don't!

I'm 38 . I will not

It's a tiptronic, so you definitely need to change the gearbox fluid, to stop that misbehaving...

I think he means the "Welcome to the forum 10W/50 Semi Synthetic".

If you're going that route I'd team it with "Congratulations on the amphitheatre" Hi-temp transmission fluid.

And if you're going the whole hog, perhaps also the "I got wedged in the gymnasium" -10 degrees windscreen wash
