New Radiator and Thermostat

I also replaced my hood struts since they also failed that was the easy part lol



Next up I finally can move on to suspension refresh and brakes

Front Suspension refresh is gonna run me about ~$650 in parts alone. not bad at all.

I got a "check brake linings" message in the dash so seems like the front pads have hit the wear sensor.

I have new rotors and pads ready to install just waiting to get with my mechanic and get them installed on within the next few days.


Do I need to replace the wear sensor too? or rather is it worth replacing the wear sensor? I can get one from FCP or Rock Auto for pennies just need to order it.
