I cannot conceive of any outcome from opening the cover other than depressurizing the engine. Theoretically indicating an inaccurate oil level on the dipstick, however upon removal, it would reflect the same condition.

I do not anticipate a high-performance tire to last beyond 10,000 to 15,000 miles on vehicles such as ours. My Pirelli P Zero tires lasted around 12,000 miles. What was the lifespan of your Conti Continental Contis?

The rubber component inside the gearbox mount is designed to maintain the central metal piece in alignment.

Gentlemen, I express my gratitude to you. I am relieved. By chance, I have placed the SEC on ramps and discovered that the muffler has corroded, causing water to leak out. Currently, I need to locate a replacement muffler and devise a plan for its installation. I am contemplating if it would be more advantageous to enlist the services of an exhaust professional for this task.

After running my 500SEC for a duration of 10-20 minutes, I see the accumulation of liquid behind the exhaust pipes, which then drips down. Upon olfactory perception, the odor of the substance is almost imperceptible. This vehicle lacks a catalytic converter. Is this considered typical? Is the substance in question water, and if so, what is its source? Is it possible for water accumulation in the fuel tank to go through the engine and out via the exhaust?
