Save the 'extra parts', or drive it into the junkyard, because that sort 
of thing might either destroy the resale value or tempt a future buyer 
to sic the EPA on you.

The car is pretty darn clean as it is.  Probably the cleanest vehicle 
currently sitting at okie acres at the moment.  Just wait until the wife 
gets ahold of it.  Looking thru the records the PO (before Hoovie) JUST 
had the air suspension compressor, air struts, and the timing chain 
replaced within the last 1k miles. Upon looking at the car I do need to 
replace the bat wing air intake thing on top of the engine due to the 
fact that its broken where it connects to the turbo and not securely 
clamped down like it should be.  Also is missing the left air intake 
pipe that pulls air in from the grille to the air cleaner on that side.  
I am also going to go ahead and do a full service on it.  It appears it 
may have had an oil change recently but I have no idea what they used.  
I will probably also replace the pvc valve and install a catch can of 
some sort.  It seems the big problem with these is the crappy oil they 
use in them to protect the dpf.  I will use an actual synthetic HDEO 
that is actually for diesels.  With the catch can the oil vapors should 
not make it to the dpf.

Did he make a vid of the dumbest youtuber selling the GL from HL to some 
dumber Okie?  You should make one too, "I Bought the Cheapest POS GL in 
the Country from Hoovie and Now I Really Regret It"

Yes, I just left Hoovies place to look at that GL diesel he had that YouTube 
video on a couple of weeks ago. He has shit piles of money in all his cars, 
high dollar cars. GL was pretty nice, does leave a couple of drops of oil 
overnight but nothing bad. I’m sure I will have to visit the oil cooler down 
the road. Anyway he was asking $7k for the GL, I offered $5k and he didn’t even 
blink and took it. Should have offered $4.  I don’t think he cares. He says his 
YouTube videos pays for all those cars. He owns 18 of those Freddie’s frozen 
custard places and he says it’s pretty much on auto pilot now days. So all he 
does is the YouTube thing.

Set up a GoFundMe online to recoup your "lost" $1k.
