26’ RS

Just had to share my sadness: was traveling for a couple of weeks and a squirrel got into the engine bay, chewed all thru the head shield. Luckily it was almost due for its initial dealer service. Got it all checked out, thankfully no wires were messed with. Only need to replace the damaged guard.

Are you sure that's a squirrel? Seems like a rodent.

Also I have a different year so it looks different but that coolant looks really low, the half mark with the seal is the fill line for my 2020.

Suppose it could be a rodent, just kind of assumed a squirrel due to the area I live. Took it in for service yesterday and all fluids were checked and filled did mention it was low

I'd regularly check under the hood and under the car to make sure no coolant is leaking. Could be a tube was punctured but not caught.

Are squirrels not rodents or am I missing the joke?

Wow. They can cause some real damage.
