I installed a new regulator but now the window only goes down 1/3 of the way and pulls back down when it goes up. Holding it a second time makes it close. Initializing doesn’t work. I used a dorman regulator with the oem motor. I saw something online about deinitalizing the motor by pulling...

Everything is plug and play from any year? My seats arent heated or cooled so I’ll avoid those...roof airbag? My seat had one of those? Thank you for the help guys.

So interesting tidbit when I bought my 2005 LS Ultimate the car reeked of black and milds and among the common coil problems was the not so common seat problems(Google is proving useless). Im guessing the previous owner was a heavy set fellow who loved to cruise while chainsmoking some flavored...

Except when every single door is frozen shut. One time ok but 3 times in one week gets frustrating :mad:

Wish I read this thread before trying to jimmy my window back into position. It was going up but cockeyed from being opened during the polar vortex. Now I realize trying to force it broke the regulator as the window simply falls if not held up...shit

I got pulled over for a license plate bulb being out. I ordered new led bulbs and replaced both. The one that was out initially did not light up and upon further inspection I saw the old bulb was burnt and the socket looked cooked. I assumed it was a wiring problem so not wishing to deal with...

JOE! You are the expert man so I will forget that piece of misinformation. From now on I’ll keep it in 5 and see if the mpg improves, are there any benefits at all for switching between? Does the car launch faster in 4 or 5? I’m going to test it myself next week and post a video on youtube to...

2005 v8 ultimate I live in New Jersey so its some traffic but not too bad. I do love me some drive through ;) I reset the mpg yesterday and driving normally, not even too spirited it kept around 14 but dropped to 13 once i started going uphill. I also make sure to keep it in D4 if going under...

Car drives perfectly I do not think it is the torque converter but how would I know? I am also going off of what the on board computer is telling me as it seems pretty accurate but I know some people dont trust it.

Only use 93 lmao not risking a misfire. When I had a 99 M3 couple years back my gas mileage on that was also horrendously low so wondering if its just a me problem or something im getting wrong...

So it seems consensus is the aftermarket cold air intakes are merely for sound and looks. If I already have a loud exhaust setup would I even hear the K&N CAI? Would it be better with a tune than the stock CAI with a tune? My car gets 14 mpg combined but I have always had a heavy foot...

Super helpful thank you

Hey all I’m new to the LS scene as ive mostly driven older Bimmers but I have a question regarding my 2005 V8. After fixing the common coil issue and getting rid of the misfire my cats commited suicide after another 2000 miles. I have ordered the direct fit magnaflow cats for $520 and was...

There are no message center instructions regarding that and the car didn’t come with the manual and my google attempts are proving futile but ill look into that more later. The parking brake seems to work, I can reset the message but it comes back every time I start the car. I’m wondering if...

After 2,000 miles with the good coils my check engine came on. No misfire but I took it to autozone and the reader said p0420 twice. I have done some research on my own and people say to just wiggle around the o2 sensors? How does that work? Does this mean it is not the catalytic convertor? All...
