  1. I am looking to get better lighting for my fogs and I am curious do these H16 led fog bulb replacement do they provide additional brightness when compared to the stock philips bulb? I noticed your link 1 had a nice led kit and wanted to confirm would this also melt the housing.

    R/T Rallye Specs

    I was at the dodge dealership getting my coolant / AT fluid and Power steering flushed and saw the 2012 Dodge journey R/T in the service bay. I liked what I saw. I decided to visit the dodge canada site and decided to build one to check the price out. I noticed that there is a 2012 Dodge Journey R/T Rallye but I can not find any specs on this model on the dodge canada site. Went to the Dodge USA site but no such model on there site. Just wondering if any body knows more about this one.
  3. I just picked my winter rims + tires and paid about $ 79 per 16x 6.5 black steel rim. Got the 225/70R16 Toyo Observe GSI-5. They installed the sensors I brought in for free. I manage to get the sensors from the states for about $136 for 4 sensors (incl shipping). Supplier had a GST number so did not have to pay any custom duties.
  4. I have searched around for a set of tpms for my journey as I would like to have them on my winter rim. I ordered a set from rock auto and paid about 27 Canadian per tpms + shipping. I have not had a chance to see if they work as here in Edmonton it's still around 24 celcius here. But I am sure by mid oct it will change
  5. The funny thing is I picked up my journey today after the L25 recall and the following was on my work order: "Please be advised if the tire presure sensor valve stems break upon inspecting tire pressures due to rust/corrosion or lack of maintence they will not be covered under warranty . . Would you still likes them checked . YES________ No____" This is the first time this has happened to me. And do all my service/oil change and other issues at this dealer. But why now suddenly at 48,000km? I found this odd and now I am wondering if there is a problem or not. I did not know you had to do maintnance on this TPS valve stem.
  6. I had my brake rotars replaced front and back (dealer did front for free, 2nd time they did this) and had my back replaced at about 40,500 km. Journey was in again (safety recal L25 and no surprise on back order from the states) with the dealer and they told me my brakes need servicing due to alot of brake dust. I am wondering is this normal to have alot of brake dust after 8,000km on new rotors? Vehicule will go in again for the "L25" and will get the brakes serviced but just wanted your opinion if this is normal or not. thanks,
  7. I here the same but when I have it plugged into the block heater it seems less then without being plug in. I recorded the sound as well. Not sure how to share the sound on here.
  8. Well I have replaced both lieft and right signal.brake bulbs. The left went at around less then 20000 km and today I replaced my right rear and around 31000 K.
  9. This TSB for brake issues is for the US ? correct? Any chance it will apply to canada?
  10. I am not too sure about the factory window tint if they protect from UV rays but I know the after market window tint due offer it. When I purchased the vehicule i asked the dealer to tint all windows to a level similar to my G6. One thing you could due is on a sunny day is to sit in the back and feel how much heat is coming in and role the window down and see if feels different. If it doesn't then I don't think it offer too much protection. I know with after market you can tell the difference. But this depends on the level of tint you purchase. Here in edmonton canada I think they have 5 different levels and 5% being limo tint, I have 12% on all back windows and the front I do not remeber but i thought it was around 30%.
  11. OK if that is the case I just want to point out Subaru Forester comes with HID headlights and they do not use a projected beam. And this is not an after market HID this comes stock equipped on some trim levels, and yes bulb is covered. Same thing with the Acura CSX also HID stock at some trim levels and once again no projected beam.
  12. Well Finaly got around to adding a pic. Here it is. I am just thinking I need to get a whiter bulb for my fogs to get a better matching look, any ideas? Thanks,
  13. I have been looking for some winter tires and had some snow fall already here in edmonton and one near miss, and the dealer told me about Hercules avalanch extreme and they said they had good success with. He quoted me 1200 installed, tax on steel rims (17 inch). Any idea if these tires are any good? thanks,
  14. Hello, They sound comes from the top left somewhere next to the engine? I get somethign similiar and it is only when the vehicule idles at a traffic light or in park. But when I accelerate you here a the sound go to a high pitch then disappear. I got all the service managers to hear and the shop foreman, but whern it came to work on the vehicule it just could not be duplicated. It is very frustrating let me know what the other dealer says. I plan to take it to another dealer as well and see how they deal with it. Even the lube bay guys here it and everytime I come in for an oil change they ask me how the "lemon" is doing. I just can sit there and smile. I only have 25,000 km on the journey.
  15. Hi guys, I also hear a sound when my vehicule idols at a traffic light and when I accelrate it goes high pich and disappears, I have been to the dea;er numerous times to show them but did not happen, finaly i manage to get the service advisors to hear it and left it at the dealer and came back "unable to duplicate customer conerns", I was quite unhappy and again discussed they said if happens gain bring it in and ask for shop foreman, it did happen brought it in and he heard it left it there and they were not able to duplicate anymore. They tell me they can not do anything inless it is consistant but not sure what to do. I hope when I get back my brother has more news on it but it is realy frustrating dealing with this. I have decided to start making notes when it happens and make recording of it. Thanks, ZAC
