1. After leaving the interstate and coming to a stop at a light, I noticed smoke coming from the exhaust. Although it was dark, it looked like oil burning to me. The engine was rebuilt approximately 80K miles ago, with Carrera tensioners, Turbo valve covers, oversize valves (I believe 45MM), pistons, rings, etc. The oil was changed around 100 miles ago.
2. During the drive, I felt cold water dripping on my legs, which turned out to be the underdash A/C unit. The entire underdash unit had heavy condensation on it, and was literally soaking wet around the entire exterior of the unit.
3. 2 of my gauges fogged up.
4. The car rides so rough that it regularly skipped my in-dash CD player.
5. The interior noise level is quite high.
6. The wind noise is quite high.
7. When I started the car from cold, the turn signal indicators on the tach glowed until the car was driven for 10-15 minutes.
