    Gemm75 reacted to 2late4u in TPMS module Faulty? Or bad sensor?   
    google you tube for great info on most repairs.............my daughter just spent $250.on repairs to her sons car that was using coolant and after they gave it back to her after replacing thermostat and flush an something else ,2 days later it is still using coolant. i googled the car model and coolant leak took me 2 minutes to see this car has a bad history of leaks at the heater elbows that go thur the serpentine belt tensioner  bracket and so i washed it off at the car wash drove it for a few minutes and sure enough it was leaking just a little bit at that elbow , so at least we know what to do next but you tube videos are a GREAT info for problems.

    It would seem logical that the pick up sensor is bad on that hub since the problem didnt move with the wheel

    Don't use universal coolant for one.  Mixing coolant types will cause blockages in the radiator or engine at best, heavy corrosion at worst.  Get the coolant flushed correctly as soon as possible.
     
    Check the consistency of the engine oil.  Yellowish to black is fine, chocolate milk like is a failed head gasket.  You also want to check hoses, especially any that are above hot components (like the exhaust manifold). If it's leaking from there, it will drip onto the heat shield and evaporate before you can see the leak.
     
    One last place to check off hand would be the coolant overflow bottle - make sure it isn't cracked.

    might go away after a few days of starting and stopping and if the journey is running okay,also you could run by a your local auto shop they have scanners and might be able to reset it for you.good luck and keep us informed.

    thanks for the advise Bryman31...I will give it a try and see...can soapy water work as well or does it have to be detail spray as per better lubrication?

    yes, and REMEMBER............you really MUST after claybaring put a paint sealer on THEN a good wax job.  and trust me if you only do 1 area you WILL notice, so just do the whole car.

    Thanks Armando, I seen those fin type and really like them too. What if we replace the tape that comes with it with a better two sided tape from a parts store? Should be able to find the stuff the use for side molding, that stuff is gorilla strong, haha. I think the fin is the route I'm going to take, I will post pics when I get it done. Thanks again Armando

    Stick with OEM. Just tighten until tight. Don't overthink it.

    Gemm75 reacted to Cody Chornobey Powley in Update my retrofit   
    Well it's been awhile since I've posted anything due to the fact that I almost died at work.  Ended up cutting my wrist open. Next To my main artery hit a few tendons and a bunch of nerves.  This was due to porcelain tile falling off a wall.  Anywho. I've updated my projectors. With new switchback shrouds that I painted to match my journey and added some underglow.   Feedback is much appreciated!!! For those that do not know what switchback means. This means when I use my turn signal they turn Amber and flash with my turn signal and go back to white when the signal is off

    Thanks! I was finally able to get outside (it’s been cold here) and take a look! It was just clipped in and came off easily! So I was able to install my new grill!
