I wonder if there's a solution in custom shocks. I'm sure it would be expensive, but it's an option. Chris Alston's Chassisworks, Inc.; Chassisworks - Custom Builder Shocks

I just realized that the drivability problems that nagged me, thinking it was a result of a poorly programmed transmission, was a result of traction control. Delayed throttle response on takeoff, delayed downshift, etc., goes away when I turn off traction control. I don't need it anyway. Is...

I cleared the codes prior to getting the result. 2004.

My defroster wasn't blowing enough air, so I used Forscan to check the diverter and got failures on all three. Codes 1262, 1263, and 1265. Defrost diverter, cold air bypass, and floor diverter. Anyone else run into this?

I just replaced the foam surrounds in my THX speakers. Worked out well.

Very likely a vacuum leak. Easist to find and most overlooked cause of misfires. Will usually get worse as it warms up as the cold enrichment covers up the lean condition.

Good info. Glad you found it. In my experience a vacuum leak at the manifold doesn't throw a code, but you will get some occasional misfire codes.

Vacuum leak. Loose hose connection or bad intake gasket. Try spraying carb cleaner around the intake seal and see if you don't hear a change in the idle.

I'm thinking intake manifold leak. It runs good while the cold enrichment is going, but leans out after warm. If you can keep it running after warm, try spraying carb cleaner ot propane around the manifold to see if it suddenly runs better.

I have the same problem. I looked at the workshop manual and found that speaker diagram shown, but didn't find how to pull the package shelf. Found this:

Weird. I've replaced both front regulators at different times on my Gen II and never paid attention to position or initializing. Just swapped the motor over to the new regulator. All work normally.

I had the same problem with new bottles cracking. Then I bought a Dorman brand and found it was much thicker in the area where the others were cracking. I'm on 7 months so far without a leak.

If your car isn't overheating when sitting still it probably isn't your fan pump. I agree that the fan probably isn't being triggered to turn on when the AC is on. Yours is the classic symptom of the fan not turning on. On older cars there was a switch in the instrument panel that sensed to...

A turbo kit for under $900 should tell you something's amiss. Take a look at their negative reviews.
