    Can't hold rpm steady at 1500 to 2000 rpm - is this normal?

    I had this same problem, except mine threw CEL codes P0300,301,302,303,305 (misfires), and a few others on top of that! It rarely happens now after being fixed and sometimes a battery reset will fix it up. FYI...the fix was over 1.5 years and included new O2 sensors, new cats, new coils, and a...

    Gransport Mods...

    4200 repair/workshop manual

    Send me your email address via PM and I can send you a link to the repair manual. I don't mind sharing, but keep in mind I can only send 5 per month through "dropsend.com" as it's an almost 50mb file. First come (after rob5170 of course) first served. :)

    Wheel refurb experiences - powder coat or paint?

    I opted for a wet paint job. (Also went to a grigio mercury colour :wink: ) The total cost was $600 (Canadian) and that included repair of some curb rash. They didn't even have to remove the tires!!

    Pirelli P-Zero Corsa

    Just to be sure...stock front tires are 235/40 not 235/35. and rears are 265/35 not 265/30. That being said, if he has changed the wheels to those sizes, do a "google search" and you'll see the options. Hope this helps somewhat! :)

    Before I commit... Any idea how much shipping a full set be to me here in BC, Canada would be? It sounds like it would still be a great deal, but the weight concerns me a bit. Even a rough estimate will suffice. Cheers, John

    DIY outside temperature sensor & door card removal

    I thought I would create a "how to" file with pictures, relating to the replacement of the outside temperature sensor. It also doubles nicely as a "how to" remove the door card. Unfortunately, the file is about 3mb and the site won't let me post it. Is there any way to get around the...

    Looking for touch up paint.

    Dr. Colorchip is fantastic! I used them and I'm very happy with the results. They send an exact color match, and the amount they send lasts quite a while. Have a look at the demo video on the website, and you'll see that the product works. http://www.drcolorchip.com/
