(Edit to add - just over 178k miles.) A couple weeks ago I started having a coolant leak problem. It's not a really heavy leak and it's only a few miles to work so I've just been keeping an eye on it and keeping it topped up, but last weekend, a ~26 mile trip required almost a gallon to refill...

Might be interested in the exhaust mani/pre-cat assembly. Or even just the pre-cat, if you're willing to separate it from the mani. What would you want for it, shipped to 63301?

Behind the glove box. Open it, then push in on the sides near the dashboard, and the glove box just kinda drops out. Behind it you will find the resistor. I think it's the only electrical connection there so it's hard to miss. Unplug it, take out the two screws holding it in, put the new one...

If I were in PA, I'd be happy to come and help out during my off-work hours. Unfortunately, that's a pretty long commute from MO. That being said, you might consider sweetening the deal a little bit. Include an incentive. Something like, "Beer and pizza will be supplied" or something. Just...

Yep! That's the thing. Mine burned/melted on the inside, where the bulb's terminals press into the adapter.

There's an adapter attached to the plug-end of the headlight bulb. Basically a black or brownish round piece of plastic with two blade-style electrical contacts that the harness plugs onto. This adapter is kinda commonly known for burning up sometimes, creating a situation much like the one...

For what it's worth, I bought my 03 P5 in 07 with somewhere around 85k miles on it. I have no indication that either the timing belt or clutch or water pump were changed before then, and I have not done any of those since I got the car. I'm currently almost at 220k. So either my timing belt...

I've had a similar sound for a little while now. It might not be the same thing as yours but it sounds like it when I read it in text, lol. It sounds a lot like a loose and rattling throwout bearing to me, especially since it's sort-of clutch dependent. Think that might be a possibility?

Mind if I ask what you drove before you got your P5? I've always felt like I could feel every bump in the road since I got my P5, but I've always liked it. I like feeling the road, in my butt and my feet and my hands. I like to see, hear, and feel everything I possibly can - gives me more of...

For what it's worth, and if it helps, you can put on 205/50/16 tires. The selection is a lot better, they're a teeny bit (10mm) wider but the same diameter, and I don't know for sure but I think they're a bit less expensive. I don't blame you, though. I went from a Neon with 185/65/14's (like...

First thing I thought of. Which made me laugh a whole lot. Thanks for that, guys. :)

I'm thinking about upgrading my video card setup. And I'm looking for some opinions. I'm currently using an XFX Radeon HD 7850 (1GB Core Edition). For 130ish bucks I can double up and crossfire it. Or for around 200ish I can get a Radeon R9 270X. My current game list includes Fallout 3 and...

No disrespect intended, but how many individual sentences are there in what you just wrote?

Zombie reply, I know, but I just had to put this up here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOmm5cw0DqE

When my first Neon was totalled, I pulled off all my performance parts - intake, muffler, UDP, bored TB, ported intake manifold, my Optima red-top and my aftermarket battery tray, solid motor mounts, etc. - replaced them with the stock parts if I still had them, and then let the wrecker tow it...
