  Repair question

  By Xtor

  My Gravity was involved in a small fender bender. It did not look too bad from the outside but requires a few parts. Now getting parts shipped out to northern Virginia was definitely not quick, after multiple weeks of waiting they are finally in. Now comes the next problem, the air talk has to be removed which requires a special tool that the shop does not have and according to them cannot buy….seems a bit strange for a lucid certified shop. Now I have been waiting over two weeks for this... Read more

  Aftermarket rear sway bar noise and considerations

  By dgordon7

  Team X, sharing my humble experience with my 2018 LX, with aftermarket Whiteline 22mm bar and end links. The Whiteline bar is just fantastic and the biggest update for handling I've done. Completely transforms the car. Purchased from Unity Performance here in the GWN, as my WL spring kit. This message is applicable to any aftermarket bar . I installed this over 4 years ago and used the Accord end links. No issues and lasted well. This year; mid spring, had clicking and groaning... Aftermarket rear sway bar noise and considerations

  Whiteline aftermarket end links too long?

  By KOIVUN1

  I bought the Whiteline grip kit with the front and rear sway bars + end links, rsb install was pretty easy, only had to lift the car a little bit because of how much beefier the new rsb was compared to oem. Only problem is that the new end links clunk constantly over every bump. All nuts and bolts tightened to spec so my only guess is that they angle too far out and hit the control arm brace that is welded in for rigidity (presumably). Any ideas on what else it could be? I’d really... Whiteline aftermarket end links too long?

  CX-30 A/C compressor failed

  By rzc

  Having no A/C in Houston is no joke! Took my 2023 Mazda CX-30 with 90K+ miles to the dealership after the A/C compressor failed. Luckily, I had an extended warranty, so instead of being hit with a $2,700 repair bill, I only had to pay my $100 deductible. Definitely one of those times when having an extended warranty paid off! Forgot to mention — I was also able to get a replacement key fob while I was there. Now I can enjoy some cold A/C again!

  Gen 4 vs Gen 5 Quad Cab rear seat

  By 670hoth

  I currently have a 2017 Gen 4 quad cab and am looking at new Gen 6 Rams and would prefer a quad cab for the longer bead as I have now. Does anyone know if Ram has found a way to squeak out a tiny bit more comfort in the rear seat of the Gen 6. Or the other possibility that they lost a little bit. The Gen 4 rear is adequate for kids and smaller adults and even average size adults for rides up to an hour or so. Of course, longer rides than that in the rear is not that comfy. Any experience...

  Time of day SuperCharger rates

  By bwilson4web

  I was one of two cars charging at a nearby, 8 stall charging station at 11:45 PM. Then in the next 15 minutes, all stalls filled up. The charge rate after midnight dropped from $0.38/kWh to $0.20/kWh. Local Tesla owners adapted by waiting for midnight rate drops to charge. Of course the congestion charges kicked in so I moved to another, 16 stall charging station and got the extra I needed. This explains how those without residential charging can own a Tesla and get close to... Read more

  740/940 t5 swap help needed

  By Wesdunns70t5m

  Hello all, I've been tackling a lot of big projects, and have got to a point I could use some help. Car in question is a 1991 740, originally aw71 and now going t5. The transmission is installed in the car with my modified crossmember. The part that is giving me the run around is the driveshaft angles... I was using an angle finder and set my engine/transmission at a 3° tilt relative to the car itself, as I read that is what it is stock. With that locked in, I installed the front half of...

The dealer ended up telling me that they've never seen it before.. sent a claim in and it was denied.. blamed it on road conditions, winter weather, etc... This past winter was 2nd... Read more
