B E A utiful. Thank you very much!

Thus far I've done about 40 miles and it hasn't come back, so there's a glimmer of hope, but it's good to know there's a solid, affordable option to a genuine sensor. Thanks!

p1283

I swear to God... Lately it's been EVERY OTHER WEEK with this damn thing. Everything that can go wrong HAS gone wrong, with the exception of getting water in the tranny. With my luck that'll happen next month despite doing the re-route. :? p1283 this time... Cleared the code and it came back again. ...

Hm. Glad I stumbled upon this. Noticed my gutters were cracking badly a few weeks ago.

Already a step ahead of ya. I've had the Airlift 1000 kit for about a year & a half now. Love it. Got the Bilsteins installed. Wouldn't have been too tough of a job if the lower shock mount wasn't frozen in there solid. It wasn't the nut or the threads that were frozen, it was the bolt inside th...

Rear shock replacement.

Anyone do this themselves? DIY project? Pretty sure my rears are shot so I'm starting to research & price out my options. After a few minutes it seems KYB Gas-a-Just monotube shocks might be a contender at 53 bucks a piece on Amazon. Looks like a mild upgrade over stock (which bodes well for my ...

Re: Does a 2010 still need the transmission cooler bypass?

I will be towing so would probably want a second cooler installed if so. I tow ~5000lbs once a month during the summer. Performed the radiator bypass and that's it (as far as cooling is concerned... suspension, power, engine monitoring, etc is another matter). No issues. I monitor my temp with a Bu...

3900 for the boat. How much for the trailer? I tow a 4-5,000 lb trailer about once a month or more during the summer in pretty hilly terrain (New England). You shouldn't have any issues unless you're in crazy hilly terrain. If I'm on the highway and it's hunting gears a lot I'll turn off overdrive.

Yeah, aftermarket clutch... But it's been in there since September.

I have noticed a little play once the clutch frees up and goes into free spin operation, though.... :?

Another one bites the dust.... This time the bearing disintegrated w/o warning, spit the fan into the radiator and threw the serpentine belt. Luckily no damage to the radiator and I was able to limp it home running on just the battery. This is really starting to piss me off. Enough with this Chinese...
