Default New MC owner

My 86 year old uncle passed away and left me a very nice 2003 MC. It"s a MO car, silver with blue leather seats, 105k, totally rust free & 31 mpg.
Only two issues. A very slight clicking / snapping sound at slow speed and driving over a bumpy service. Mostly when turning left but occasionally when turning right. I had it on the hoist today and did a thorough check of the entire car. Could only find a slightly worn front bushing on the LF control arm. It might also be a worn steering joint. Either way it's not a big issue, just a minor annoyance.

The second issue is a non workng seat heater. I will post my questions on the appropriate forum.

A little about myself. I'm a 64 y/o recently retired safety manager. I received my ASE certification in 74 and worked as a mechanic on 200 ton trucks until 84 when I completed my college and then worked as an engineer or manager. I normally drive German cars but this MC is so nice for its age I may sell one of my VW's or Audi's and keep the MC.

One question. How do I attach a photo from my IiPad to a thread?

Thanks, Jan L
