What have you done to your P5 today?

Yesterday I installed an HID kit for my P5. And now wondering whether they are legal on the streets of Montreal. Considering how bright they look and don't know whether I need to adjust the height...

yes you do, a lot, aim them down

I more week and I am back in canada and get to drive my car. W00t. Apparently there is snow at home so I'm glad that I put the snow tires on before I left in mid october.

Definitely! After I had the HIDs put on the Speed, we actually had someone stop, get out of their truck and ask us to turn the headlights to low beam. We re-aimed them after that and haven't had any more problems.

Braved the harsh NE winter weather to install the Apexr1.com diverter panel. Yeah, it was pretty brutal ---- 40 degrees or so and a whopping 30 seconds. Lucky I didn't get frostbite! lol

Kinda upset with the finish, but plan on painting or powdercoating it anyway.

Yeah, the diverter panel is made from aluminum or something...It scratches like hell....

To refinish use a scotchbright pad in one direction...I refinished mine before I even installed it....

Today, I put in my winter floormats...cleaned about 40lbs of crap that had accumulated in my hatch...and uhhhh....got gas...about it...Ordered the AWR 19mm sway tho....should be installed next weekend...whoot...

aftermarket HIDs in halogen housings are illegal everywhere. aim them down a little more and provided they are not crazy blue or purple you will be fine

Pulled a P0140 yesterday afternoon so the 2nd O2 sensor got a scrub down. Didn't seem that dirty for a CEL but oh well, cleantit! (boobs) The voltage on both sensors looked normal when laptop was hooked up so hoping it was just dirty. Cleared dtc & reset ecu & away we go. Guess I'll find out soon as a drive cycle completes.

I got a couple P0037 myself. The first time, I guess the guy cleared it, because when I went back to get it scanned again to see what sensor it was, the check engine light was off, and it was pending. Then yesterday it turned on again, so I decided to just cleaned both of them and the connectors. Check Engine light turned off, and didn't turn back on today. Hopefully it stays that way.

when you guys turn on the key the CEL comes on with an assortment of others for a few secs then turns off right? Cause i've just come to realize today that after i failed emissions and threw P0340 (Camshaft Positions Sensor A Circuit Bank 1 or Single Sensor) and P0507 (Idle Control System RPM Higher Than Expected).... i don't think that i have a CEL light at all.


Is this possible?
