if that was a mouse, hope it ate it.

I have the Z in the new garage and something has gnawed at the trim around the garage door

I think the truck is going back in there even if it means walking down the snowy, icy, slippery, steep driveway to get to it for work

only 4 days of vacation left

I took some time this morning to work on my DD. The brake pedal was feeling spongy, and sure enough the rear caliper pins were seized on both sides. Cleaned/re-greased and reassembled with new pins/boots. Pedal feel is much better. Hope this lasts.

that sucks. ive had my 09 honda fit gnawed on that caused all the water temp sensor dtc fiasco.

but that car's parked out doors and im 150% sure it was gnawed while the car was at those parking garage structure in the city. my wife's clients are in those high rises and only valet parking

for my garage ive been using dCon no gnaw marks yet...

and no mouse crap either so im not sure who the f- moved them pellets from the tray

I put dcon in the rafters and under the tool bench. The bug guys put extra poison bait boxes outside around the outside garage too.

hahaha... yah, i hope it was just me that did it unknowingly.

usually when theres a mouse problem, i think you'd see mouse crap. i checked everywhere, behind workbench, tool case, hose reel, etc, but none found...
