About this listen
In this episode, Aaron Clements, Jamie Bridges, and David Clark return to the studio after a remote broadcast at Gas Pro (with a stop at the first East Coast Foster’s Freeze). The crew debates the merits of a new Purolator 20,000-mile oil filter and interviews Standard Motor Products marketing director Aaron Shaffer about aftermarket part improvements. They also tackle listener questions like troubleshooting a Subaru’s beeping radio mystery and avoiding a $10,000 air suspension repair on a Jaguar, and engage in a heated discussion on rising insurance premiums and the growing trend of subscription-based car features.
