    map DVD

    For about 3 or 4 months now, when I start the car my screen on the radio says no map dvd installed. It will display this for a while and then it will finally come on. Today it did it but it didnt come on. I put a DVD in and it played fine. That tells me, I think, The head unit is fine, so I...

    Gas

My son lives in ky and he pays 5.5 cents per kwh. Germany on the other hand pays 22.5 cents per kwh. That's...

    new toy on the XLR

    Although I am not an electrical engineer. I am a 32 year electrician that should have been an engineer. I love desigining things. If you want drl's and turn signals with the LED's, you could tap the white LED's to a switched wire that is on only with the ignition on and the turn signals tapped...

    That's where it pays to be an electrician. It's a good living and you can do some cool stuff on the side.

    Chirping belt

    Thanks Tonypro. You saved me a lot of money. I sprayed the belts and it quit. My mechanic said I needed belts, Idler, and tensioner. I ordered the gatorback belts. We'll see how that works. Thanks Again.

    Chirping belt

    My 04 has a belt that sounds like crickets in the woods. I replaced the belts 2 years ago so I doubt their bad. Any thoughts what might cause this? I thought there might be a TSB on this but I can't find it.

    Spotting window trim

    I just checked my tube of krytox. It's gn part #gpl 205. The stuff is expensive, about $30 for a 2 oz tube, but it is good and that tube will do many cars. It does go a long way.
