Btw, when you say hit it with some anti-corrosion spray, would WD-40 do the trick?
I dunno. See what they're using on the forums. You're in a good position right now to keep it working for a long time. When I got mine, the speculation was that very cold weather killed it. Now it seems to be corrosion. I always made sure to get it washed often in winter at a car wash with underspray. I should probably do something, but its probably too late now. Could die tomorrow, could go another 60000 miles.

Yikes. That's GT-R type maintenance bills!
Yeah, but Super Sport mode is totally worth it!
