Diagnosed a power steering leak. Looks like it's coming from the high pressure line fitting at the rack. Disconnected the tie rod, removed the plastic cover plate, and torqued the banjo bolt down as hard as I could in the limited space... Which wasn't much.

Probably not going to take care of it though, the fitting is probably toast for it to start leaking by itself all of a sudden. It's been like 6 months since I replaced the rack. It could just be the crush washer, since I re-used the old ones. Appointment with the real mechanic set for next week for this and some other crap.

Bought a new flasher relay. Driving through heavy traffic with no signals is scary.

I added a quart of oil, cleaned out the accumulated crap in the car, and drove it. High excitement.

Fixed my passenger seat belt which was retracting super super slowly. After washing it, it now zips back almost like new.
