| Glad to hear that you replaced your mirror, i didnt imagine that it would of been so difficult/expensive just to get a mirror. Only thing is that its designed for LHD, does that make any difference? |

mirror is good
same angle as OEM, no difference
and like i said before, i kno the original had to be convex and not flat.
flat mirrors on the drivers side, although it was an industry standard, increases the blind spot, years ago they started creating both the passenger and drivers side mirrors convex for wide angle. i am not regretting this purchase, the view is back to what my eyes and mind was accustommed to without having to ponder over it. |

Hey Guys anyone have a idea how much the Kenstyle body kits cost, just the front and rear bumpers and side skirts ?
Its time for the CS3 to get a body upgrade.  |

Go get your AC serviced or checked for any irregularities.
Just tell them its common for the coil in these Models to burn out after awhile and you just want to see if there is any signs of burnout on the compressor. Its something visible to any AC man. They tried showing me and all i saw was a brownish red mark |
I checked an A/C repair man on Ariapita Ave.
He was telling me it is possible that it could be fixed.
He said it looked like the oil in the compressor moved from where it supposed to be and that there was some scorching...I did see some red-brown marks...so now I wondering if it's the coil that burnout.
Well the dude say he could change the oil and regas and it may solve the problem.
Now the thing is, when I put the compressor on, I don't think he was hearing the true loudness of it cause there was a lot of traffic on the road and it was hard to hear the noise. I still haven't gotten time to go back for him to work on it. So is like I without AC for some weeks now.  |

i dont have problem at Peake an I drive GDI
I serviced it this weekend....blocked off that EGR valve with a plate we dont have emmission laws here, that thing was sending thick clumps of Carbon into the head told the damn mech to block it off when he was installing this engine man did not listen.
Injectors was covered with the same thick carbon deposits that i found in the EGR port. I also removed the hot water lines from the throttle body.....we dont have winter here so why keep it there
Well Idleing smooth again and my great gas milage is greater again |

changed the in-tank pump and the engine side pump yesterday
no change...car not starting.
it tumbling jus not turning over.
thinking now is either a fuse or an air flow issue.
disconnected the gas line from the engine pump and the car started with gas spitting out the line from the tank.
had my fair share of frustration yesterday
dismantling the manifold and trottle body is stress
time now for the pros to do that sheit
Cross country run jumping up now oui...steupsss |

This just happen out of the blue one day?
Nobody messed with the car to cause it?
Did you connect to the ECU to see fuel pressure readings and ran the diagnostic feature to pulse each injector one by one to see if they working.
ECU scan will also tell you if........
The MAF working?
The TPS sensor sending a full range signal to ECU?
The magnet in the throttle still in its place?
Is the ECU faulty?
