It has the Adaptive M, and it rides like shit, and a strut is leaking, so I'd like to replace the whole thing as nothing has been replaced and it's sitting at 135k. I'd like to use OE and not lower the car.
Car feels pretty good at the moment, except for the Thermostat that causes the Fan to go 100% and the Oil Temp to not move? And a new Transmission code:/

The oil temp doesnt move because the car is running so cold, it probably never gets over 160F. You can monitor your coolant temp to confirm, but with the thermostat fully open and fan on 100% i'm sure its low. The transmission code may be related, if that is also keeping trans temps low.
