Cidderiforous

with the Nav system the CD changer is under the passengers seat, the box under the drivers seat has to do with the navigation system....there is no amp with the nav system

Well I got my car back today.... the dealer said they changed out the fuel pump along with the fuel pressure regulator. They said there was a piece of rubber in the regulator that must've floated into the outlet whenever I turned causing the misfiringI like my car again

Cidderiforous

ok, so they tested the wires and came up with nothing.....they said they pulled the fuel pump out and it was in terrible shape, so they ordered another one...so tomarrow we'll see if the problem is still there

Cidderiforous

ok, well I just dropped off my car, and I went to the parts department, and I found out something, the wires don't have an actual part #. The part number is 999999999, so they can't even order them.......GAWD I HATE MY CAR

Cidderiforous

True, I might have to actually venture to the ............WESTSIDE and have them look at it...the reason I took it there was I bought it there, and it's only a couple blocks from my houseActually, since the warranty is almost up, after this I'm cutting off Pontiac and taking my car to the Toyota Dea...

Cidderiforous

yes the coil pack wires, that is what I'm talking about

Cidderiforous

well there's a whole more mods to the car than just the CAI, but....I just got off the phone with the service manager as I type this, and I hate to say this, but he didn't know the wire harness disconnected from the coil pack. He thought it was all one piece Although I would think that the techs wou...

Cidderiforous

The car has thrown nthe misfire code almost everytime. They checked the plugs, and said they looked fine, My first assumption was the wires, and i know they played with the wires for a day or 2 trying to get a reaction through a diagnostic monitor, but they still have yet to replace them. They actua...

Cidderiforous

trying to see if anyone else has had this problem. a couple months ago cylinders 1 and 4 started misfiring. I took my car in to the dealer and they replaced the coil packs, it seemed to stop one of the cylinders from misfiring, but the other is still having trouble. Took it back again, and they repl...

Cidderiforous

well I took it to the dealer. been in and out of the dealership for the past 3 weeks...they can't seem to find the problem.....trouble is...it only happenes when I turn...they hooked up an onboard diagnostic computer and had me drive around for a couple days..of course I couldn't get the damn thing ...

Cidderiforous

all I know is I photshoped a buttload of rims on a Vibe, and the only ones that I liked were the miglias......that and the fact that everywhere I looked for them said they were discontinued, so when I actually found a set, I snatched them up...that was when the `03 Pontiac Vibe was only 6 months old...

Cidderiforous

sounds like the problem I'm having right now....4000 rpm and lower ...but I took the car to Autozone and they hooked up the scanner to it, and it said cylinder 1 and 4 misfired... it was raining when the problem started, and I'm thinking I got water in my CAI and that might be causing the misfiring,...

Cidderiforous

here's me, not a really clear pic though

Cidderiforous

how hot does it get in quebec though?I installed my amp in 100+ degree weather

Cidderiforous

I installed mine in the same place during the summer, the only issue I had with heat was when I tried to bridge it, it kept clipping, when I ran it normally it worked fine, so I left it like that all summer....no problems

Cidderiforous

hell with all that, I'm gonna get some Voltz emblems

Cidderiforous

I cut out the part of the tray where the jack was and installed it there, I had problems with heat when I had the amp bridged, but running normally I have had no problems, I'll get pics up when I get around to making everything pretty in there, right now it looks kinda messy, cause I was planning on...

Cidderiforous

how's this look??

Attached files

Cidderiforous

Yep, that's the one, It looks good, just don't care for the whole zip tie thing I'd much rather find one that actually replaces the existing grill, maybe I'll try to make one

Cidderiforous

only grill I've seen is on ebay, but it just fastens to the existing grill with zip ties and it's $75

Cidderiforous

do you smoke??might be little burn holes from embers flicked out the window that didn't make it out the window

Cidderiforous

when I got my touch up paint, the parts guy had no problem finding a color code for my car, and got it for me in about a week.... little problem though, when I applied it, it was the right color, UNTIL IT DRIED!!!!

Cidderiforous

incase anyone is wondering, those side panels come of fairly easy, well kinda... you have to unscrew the false floor, and take out the spare tire cover, but after that they rip right out, took it out to use as a mold for a fiberglass box

Cidderiforous

well I'm planning on relocating the jack and cutting the empty jack space out and building a new false floor, and mounting the amps there...... might use plexi-glass, just to show it off already built the fiberglass box, and upholstered it, I'll get pics as soon as I get a decent digital camera

Cidderiforous

ok, I found a site that would convert cdn to dollar, 322cdn converts to $241, still too much for a rim I can get here for $186 at discount tires.

I remember back in the day, getting a liter bottle, shoving 100 bottle rockets at a time upside down in the bottle, tossing a match into it, and watch the bottle melt down, and the bottle rockets fly anywich way they pleased........... damn I miss being a kid

Cidderiforous

I say douce the table with gasoline and toss a match in there and sit back and watch the show

lopers and wrench79, I would need to see a picture of the unit, but I am guessing it is not a light, but a recessed reset switch.

Cidderiforous

I was going to paint my calipers today, but when I got home and took off the tire, the damn bolts that hold the calipers on were so tight that I couldn't get them off, and ended up burning my arm on the rotor try again next week, I really don't want to mask them while on the rotors

thanks, I like them, plus they gave me at least an extra 10hp
