    Ticking Sound on Freezing Cold Startup

    Only noticed this today as temp only dropped to 15F for the first time since I got the 06LS. About 5-7 ticks on startup that go away after the RPMs drop down. Anything I should be worried about? Car has been running perfectly fine thus far. As always, many TIA :cool:

    Stoptech SS Rear Brake Lines Not Fitting?

    Got Stoptech SS brake lines as part of the RotorPros package and had them installed by a local shop on the 06 LS. Everything except the rear lines worked out great - apparently they don't have the right mounting brackets for the rears. Already e-mailed Rich Cantrillo and he verified that the...

    Caliper Covers?

    Has anyone used caliper covers on their LS? It would be quite a lot easier than powder coating it, plus I can't find a danged person in the Ames / Des Moines / Ankeny area who can do it (power-coating) :(

    Nav/THX Harness?

    Getting my stock nav/THX HU replaced with an AVIC Z110BT. Had ordered a harness from Crutchfield (their app guide said it would work for the LS with navi) - part #120705520. Unfortunately, the installer says that it doesn't fit if one wants to retain the use of the factory amps and can't find...

    Wind Noise at Highway Speeds

    Does anyone else get a fair bit of wind noise at highway speeds (say >= 75mph)? Seems to be coming from the rear windows and the weather striping seems alright.

    Nav/THX - How Many Pre-outs Needed?

    Am thinking of replacing the stock nav/THX headunit in an 06LS elite (probably with an AVIC X710BT). How many pre-outs would I need to hook an aftermarket HU up with the factory THX amps? Also, does the voltage level matter? eg. the X710BT is 3x 2V, Z110BT is 3x 4V, Kenwood DNX9140 is 6x 5V...

    It's been a little over a week now since I got a new silver birch 06 elite. After an entire week of inclement weather, just gave her a bath today. Haven't begun modifying her just yet but all the parts are on their way.

    Factory Warranty - How Particular is FLM?

    Never having owned anything new enough to be covered by either factory or extended warranties (my new 06LS has both), I'm somewhat unfamiliar with the whole shebang. Should I stick with 100% factory/stock fluids and parts? These are the changes I was thinking to doing (not all of them...
