    Mike K? ruin another volvo. 945 pickup build

    By Stiggy Pop

    My Dad and I got on the idea of building a pickup conversion out of a 7/9 as a fun winter project and for me something to haul my dirt bike around in. After some staring at pictures we decided a wagon was the best starting point and I picked up a 1994 945 turbo with 250k on it. It's in typical shape for a cheap 940, needs a little love but a good car to start with. We're not expert metal workers so figured this will be a good project to get a little more practice from. Will be doing lead (or... Read more

    Steering Wheel Upgrade 16+ LC

    By Zill

    I purchased a 2016 land cruiser which had some nicks on the steering wheel from the previous user. It wasn't the infamous peeling problem found on the 16-17 wheels, but it appears to be some nicks from a wedding ring on the left hand. I did wrap the original wheel with a loncky steering wheel wrap, but I was not a fan of how thick it made the wheel feel. Since the steering wheel is the one item you are constantly using while driving, I thought it was worth the $750 to purchase a new wheel... Read more

    Ground fault on 3F-E engine control circuit, blown EFI fuse

    By RedBean

    Hey everyone, Yesterday my engine (3F-E in a '91) shut off while cruising on the interstate (scary). Check engine light was off with ignition on, meaning to power to ECU. Found EFI fuse blown. Replaced fuse and engine started and idled fine, but then fuse blew when I depressed the accelerator. Looked around and couldn't see anything wrong with the engine harness, nothing obviously broken or melted. So I called a tow to figure it out back home . Followed EFI troubleshooting in FSM and...

    1974 Dodge Dart Coupe Factory 318 V8 - 60928E - Mexican Spec

    By Mexican Spec

    1974 Mexican Spec Dodge Dart Coupe - 60928E Hello friends Here we have a 1974 Mexican Spec Dodge Dart Coupe. While a lot of V8 Darts were sold in the US, very few were sold in Mexico. The only other way to get a V8 in a Duster, was to buy the Super Bee, and those are selling for multiples of the price of this one. Under the hood is a 318 V8 mated to an automatic transmission. As I said. very few V8 Darts were sold and this is the first time I have seen a coupe with a factory V8 under... Read more

    945 Turbo+ light restoration and upgrades

    By Continental drift

    Hello! Here's my 945: IMG_20201005_165809 My dad bought it new in 1998 and drove it for five years, then my mom got it and drove it for 10 years (and nearly into the ground, she could NEVER find any time in her calendar to have it serviced) and when it finally passed to me it was almost ready for the wrecker. The fuel consumption was through the roof, there was a boost leak, brakes were shot, and there were... Read more

    CX-9 Timing chain cover seal leak

    By 2MazdaFam

    I did something I wouldn't typically do yesterday. I took a 230,000 mile car to the dealer for service. We bought the 2016 CX9 with 200k miles (highway miles, he was a traveling salesman) in 2021, and have only done oil changes since. Due to my deferring maintenance the front rotors were heavily grooved. Our local Mazda dealer's service department is not crazy expensive (we bought our 2021 CX5 new from them so I am familiar with the service dept) so I took the CX9 in for front rotors... Read more

    1KZ Glow plugs

    By OM617YOTA

    Alrighty, follow me on my glow plug journey. Toyota 19850-67030 - Obviously these are recommended, although expensive. Coming from 617s and $15 glow plugs, paying $70/ea had me going WTF. HKT PN, CP-22 - HKT is a Japanese brand, even OEM for some manufacturers. MUCH less expensive, so I tried them. Too good to be true, just had two fail weirdly after maybe a year, 2/4 had roughly double the ohms of new. First cold start of the day had a few misfires for a couple seconds. Not sure when the...

    Car Play not working

    By Bourgeois

    my carplay was not connecting to ANY Phone. After googling & doing everything I found, including taking to dealer who told me a code was showing up that they couldn't clear, I called Uconnect who told me to bring back to dealer & if not, Uconnect would replace the entire radio, Again! well dealer ended up removing entire radio, reconnected everything and now it works perfectly. Crazy thing is, my husband has a 2019 Ram Longhorn with the same carplay code that won't clear either. Had to have... Read more
