yeah, some people are weird. You can afford to be weird if you are rich.

I broke 17,000 miles on Monday and I bought mine on 7/1/05. Welcome to the high mileage driver club.

vibemoon

I have studied many different styles off and on for the last 20 years. I really liked Aikido, Hapkido, Kung Fu - Wing Chun, and Sakim Salat. I have studied Tang Soo Do, Tae Kwon Do, Sanchin Ryu, Judo, Shotokan Karate, Kendo, Jute, Mui Tai, Tai Chi, and some others. I greatly preferred the Chinese st...

It was -5F when I started her up this morning! It idled at about 700 rpms..

We don't know yet what caused the MAFS to fail. When I called the Dealer, they did not seem too surprised that it was the MAFS. It could have been due to the removal of the battery which reset the computer and when I started it back up, the cold temp along with the CAI caused the failure. I am leavi...

vibemoon

Well I finally heard from the dealer about 1:30pm on Friday. They called to say they could not diagnose the vehicle with the cold air intake on it. I asked why and they said it would mess up their dignostic tools. IF you know dealers, this is a bunch of bullsh*t. I went and picked up the car and ask...

vibemoon

46 miles one way to work. That is why I have almost 15000 miles on a car that is only 5 1/2 months old!

vibemoon

I just talked to the dealer and they have not even looked at it yet. They are waiting for the Transmission tech to look at it. Dumb dealer. (No offense Mavrik) I will let you guys know as soon as I find out.

vibemoon

I thought about taking the CAI out but did not want to do it in the parking lot and it was pretty late last night. It was also about 25F outside. Any idea how much the MAFS is?

vibemoon

Do you think they will charge me for the mass air flow sensor? How much is it? I have had the CAI since 800 miles and currently have over 14,800 miles.

vibemoon

Last night I the driver side headlight went out. SO I removed the battery to change the bulb. Put the battery back in and started it up. The CEL came on and it stalled out almost immediately. I finally got it to idle normally, after several more starts and then took it out on the road. It would not ...

Could someone please invite me?Sikntwistd@msn.comThanks.

lovin' them. They supply my joke of the day email to my 200+ co-workers...

The CAI for the '04 AWD from Cosmo Racing fit my 2005 AWD just perfect. Wasn't a huge gain, but was definetely noticeable. Welcome to the site. Luckily, I have found that most of the parts that fit the 04 will fit the 05 as well.

vibemoon

there is no F in way!

vibemoon

I didn't have that hose... Weird. From the manifold I think you have a base or AWD. I had one small hose that connected to the CAI but nothing that big.

vibemoon

I agree. I like the look of the 05 but really like the options improvements, especially the subwoofer.

vibemoon

Toe is the right to left angle of the front tires. Think of how people walk. Most people walk with their toes pointed out and then some people, like me, are what they call pigeon toed and walk with their toes pointed towards eachother.

vibemoon

These are great! Keep it going. These make about 60 people at my job crack up all day long.

vibemoon

Cool. Thanks Devlop. We took apart the door on my uncles 2004 2500 Duarmax pickup and it was a nightmare. 4 screws, 3 clips, and 2 slotted/notched plastic things. Took us almost 40 mins to get it off and about an hour to put it back.

vibemoon

Why won't it fit? I have an 05 AWD and installed a cosmo CAI with no problems.

vibemoon

I have an '05 and I have this plug. I don't know why you don't. Maybe it was a running model change halfway through production.

vibemoon

Yeah, the window is down about 1-2 inches. Do you know how the door panel is attached (besides the obvious screws)? I was planning on doing it myself, but was afraid of scatching the heck out of the panel.

vibemoon

Welcome! Always glad to see new members. I also have an '05. Mavrik is correct. Most of the parts for the 03-04 will fit our '05's.

vibemoon

yep, we got the short end of the stick. No exhaust, no headers, no rear disc brakes, only autos, etc. Sounds bad, but I would not want to drive the manual front wheel drive in 4-6 inches of snowy slop.

vibemoon

I've got the same thing in both of my front windows and an occasional Creak from the moonroof shade. How long did it take them to fix it? 20-30 mins or 1-2 hours? With my schedule it is almost impossible to get to the dealer and I cannot be without a car.

vibemoon

Why? Because our cars have less horsepower than any other model out there. We need all the help we can get!

vibemoon

It may only be illegal in CA due to the emissions laws and smog testing. Maybe he would make them for other states that do not have these laws or testing.

vibemoon

It does sound too good to be true. Sounds very similar to the "chips" for the maiir air flow sensor. If you decide to give it a shot, please post the results. I am too poor to buy something I am not 95%+ sure about.

vibemoon

Thanks guys. I will have to shop around.

vibemoon

Who did you call? I have some 17's I am planning on using next summer but they need to be refinished. Did the company have a website?

vibemoon

I agree. I stayed away from the Aztec because of the flat fat rear end. I know this is not finished yet, so I will wait and see.

vibemoon

I check this thread every day for a good laugh. I would post some of my own here, but the title says they are all yours and I did not want to hijack.

vibemoon

Not Really. It makes the car sit level. It is only 3/8-1/2 difference from front to rear.

vibemoon

I put the eibach pro kit in my 2005 AWD. Now the lower line of the car sits level, but the wheel gap is greater in the front than the rear. It leveled out the car, but the rear drop was bigger.

vibemoon

Sounds like it is time to go. Going insane is not worth it. Stress can kill you if it goes too far. Don't let your work ruin your life. I know this is easy to say and very hard to do. The longer you wait the worse it will get. Sometimes a pay cut or a field change can be worth the peace of mind. It ...

vibemoon

It sounds like you are in the same boat as me. I am constantly being bombarded with other peoples' work and have very little time to get my own done. The problem is the same. If I don't do it, no one else will. I am trying to take some of the new people under my wing, so to speak, and train them to ...

vibemoon

Come to think of it, you are right. I have not been to Quebec in about 6 years. Fun city though.

What the US version is only 3.9% what a rip off!!!!! [/QUOTE]tell me about it. I didn't notice until I had 3-4 and started to wonder why I was feeling a little tipsy.[QUOTE=Salsa!]

vibemoon

(removed)! check this out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1sounds pretty cheap to me. .5 to 1 psi. pretty pitiful.

vibemoon

This was a great meet. I had a blast. Next time will have to remember that Canadian Smirnoff Triple Black is 7% and not 3.9% like the US. What a headache the next day. trdvibe/mavrik - great job setting this up!

Salsa! is right. The MPG will get better as the car brakes in. I have a 2005 AWD that originally got around 24 mpg on the highway. Now, after 5k miles I am getting 30-32 on the highway. As a side note, all manufacturers test their MPG by driving on a flat surface at 60 mph for the highway mileage.
