    Great video series! I've got a '24 5mt Versa myself. Could you do the 5mt community a huge favor and post a video of the sound from the transmission in idle after a drive? I've noticed that, on some Versas, the throwout bearing tends to emit a rattling noise in idle when warm.

When the fuel is full, the bars light up all the way to the right, indicating a full tank. When it is empty, there are no bars lit.

I'll look into the AEM settlement, but for now, since you are in the unique position of owning a gasoline and diesel W221, could you please comment on the differences between the two? Is the gasoline really easier to maintain because of the absence of the diesel particulate system? Perhaps these can be addressed in a video? You sure gained a subscriber today 🙂

      @@zxtenn I think Toyota changed their recommendation to 5000 miles. I know that's what it is on my GR Corolla. Nissan recommends 7500 on the Versa and I actually changed at about 6600.
