    Dealer Tranny Story

    So why were you at a Tranny dealer? That is just wrong. On a serious note, probably not much damage. Your bearings may have gotten a little hotter than normal, but you still had enough oil in there for the gear sets.

    I hate that happened to you man. I have heard good things about U Club, but I guess no place around here is immune to crime.

    Leaking valve cover gasket?

    I just replaced my valve cover seal. The leak was very small. It was leaking onto the heat shield for the header. It only took $40 and 15 minutes of my time. The old gasket was very hard and dry. It was well worth it for a clean and sealed engine.

    Did you ever try to get your key cut and see if it worked? I have the same issue with my key. I had the switchbalde key cut at the dealer today and it worked fine.

    Gas Mileage Thread

    I guess we will have to agree to disagree on that one. The car can be in top shape and still it has its limits. You cannot tune up a car that is in reasonable condition and double the gas mileage. Only the driver can do that. Granted I am talking in terms of percentages. I am not saying I...

    Gas Mileage Thread

    In town mileage is all about your driving and not so much about the car. I have personally nearly doubled my city mileage compared to my normal driving in another vehicle I used to own. Highway mileage on the other hand is nearly fixed. It varies with load and RPM but not enough to make a big...

    Gas Mileage Thread

    So I have had my P5 about a month now and I have put 4 tanks of gas in it. The total average is 29.4. The car gets about 32 on mostly highway and 27 mostly city driving. Overall I am pretty happy with the mileage, but I am going to see what I can do this tank of gas. I am thinking it will...

    Wagonbacker9, How long did it take for you to get your shipment? I am going on 10 days and the tracking is not updated since it left China.
