    Needing some advice.

    Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to store it in the drive. Scrap price will bring in roughly $250. Plus i would have to pay tow bill. (I have no clue how much it will be). Im pretty sure im going to let the wrecker keep it and just take the 100 he has offered. But are there any parts i should...

    Needing some advice.

    As much as I hated replacing Coils and plugs and cooling parts, I loved my car. I tried to sell it a few months back, but I backed out because I just didn't want to get rid of it. So, here recently I've been letting a family member drive it. Yesterday I got the worst call. She was involved...

    What did you do to your LS today?

    It was replaced about 1 year ago. And a few months ago I noticed water getting in still, so I siliconed everything and made it look 50x worse. So im finally fixing the silicone and doing everything by the book.

    Okay. New problem. Recently I've been experiencing a "ETC failsafe". I first noticed it when I pulled up to a stop light and it lunged forward, and when I slammed the brake down farther it stopped and popped up with the failsafe message and missed a little bit before returning to normal. It only...

    LS as a patrol car

    Yea... about that. Both are my videos. I was told water was getting in there and high temp silicone would fix it. And this was a guy who worked at the dealership not a mechanic, but the service manager. Needless to say, the dealership isn't there anymore. That has since been replaced. My next...

But anyways They found a crack in the radiator. So I told them I will buy the part but when I looked on rockauto.com there are a few of them. Is...

    What did you do to your LS today?

    I am. My state allows Red and White lights and sirens to volunteers responding to fire calls. I think it makes my LS one of a kind here :)
