[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1444561, member: 19880"] I thought that safety-related recalls didn't expire...? Anyway, the 2008 had recalls for the grounding junction (S4 "spider") as well as for the ignition switch. Which recall was done? Any idea which "spider" burned? Note: I had the S4 recall done and subsequently had the S6 burn - I fixed it by soldering the wires together. I also had another non-spider grounding problem that had symptoms similar to a spider bite. You may want to have a look at this... (Some good info in this thread) [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.fjrforum.com/threads/itsy-bitsy-spider.158418/[/URL] Wouldn't hurt to do the coolant but if you are due for a valve clearance check in the reasonably near future, I would do the coolant (and sparkplugs) at the same time since coolant needs to be drained for that anyway.
