am getting a rattling noise that seems to come from the muffler or muffler area more specifically the driver side on my 04 coupe when i accelerate on 1st gear and seems to go away and return when pressing the gas...anybody have any idea what this might be and what should i look for ?

 

Well for the Tokico struts, I believe I read somewhere that it's a good idea to get them re-valved after like 60k or so. I would think it would be the same for coilovers.

 

Are you familiar with the infamous "chain dragging noise" phenomenon? Happens on all G's according to bythabay. I have a 6MT and experience it. He says it's engine pinging but I've heard people mention the cat heat shields. That coupled with the bushing squeaks can be pretty embarrassing

 

sometimes i start the car and it shuts back off, happens rarely. I got a new battery installed recently, and the weird thing is it doesnt happen when the car's been sitting overnight but when it's been sitting for like 5 minutes. What could it be?

 

Did you guys know that if you press the unlock button on the key fob then hold it down for a couple seconds the windows will open???

I just found this out yesterday!

Apparently you can buy a module from KP something to close them when you hit lock twice.

 

Yup. You can also close your windows by putting the key in the door lock and holding it in the lock position.

The KP Tech module is pretty good for auto window-rollup via remote.

 

If I have a fujisibo legalis r exhaust that isn't a true dual, would berk hfc's fit on this system?

 

Does it really shorten the life of your a/c if you use it with the windows open or is that just a myth?

 

Myth. Though you might stop up the cabin filter faster

 

isnt the intake vent on the wiper cowl?

I dont think there is a intake inside the cabin?

 

cabin filter.. the one behind the glovebox..

 

^ Yes, have you taken the wiper cowl off to replace the battery? There is a big opening in their which looks to be like the AC.

 

^ so basically having your windows open does not affect how much dust collects on the cabin filter, and you're just getting dust in the cabin?

 

Finally got enough posts to list in marketplace but still it wont let me. Anyone know why?
