How often do you ~scan~ your X

X is getting old. Actually, been a bit old for a while....but I'm sorta hemming/hawing on the wifes replacement.

Just brought it to the Indy to have the X scanned for some obvious stuff that cluster showed/symptoms. Go figure but I guess if I had a scanner, I would probably be proactive about checking codes, kinda like checking tire pressure ! One week, I check the fronts. I know it's at 34. 2 weeks later, I check them as my weekend driving test felt like something was off. Both dropped about 3lbs. Go figure. Add some air.....monitor the situation.

Coincidentally, turned out 2 issues he found that we did not pick up on. Aux fan shot and fuel vent valve. Wifey has not complained about the AC being not cool, and on the weekends, if I take it for a short trip just to get some drivetime behind the X to make sure she's running solid, AC was running fairly decent. Gotham city here so surely there has to be at least a time or 2 where she's hit some bumper2bumper.

Always thought about running Inpa, etc but never got around to it.
You know how the saying goes about the cobblers shoes.
