FYI to those who garage their X. ANY electric motor in the vehicle garage , fans, washer/driers, electric exhaust vents on gas hot water heaters, produce ozone that ATTACKS/DEGRADES every rubber item in the garage (CV boots, window/door/shaft seals, tires, vacuum/coolant hoses). Try to keep electric motors off while vehicle is garaged.
Thanks, great advice. I'm off to get some Maguires Endurance dressing. Never thought about the ozone but you are right about that.
