    are any vendors still selling? my vis hood looks like crap now - all dried up and cracked after 3 years or so... how is everyone elses holding up? Are you supposed to put gel coats over your CF hood to protect it? how do you prevent it from looking dry, slightly yellow, cracking? tia.

    Hooking Droid Up to Car Stock Kenwood System on MSP

    hey just fyi - so i found them for $3.50 shipped on ebay ( that 13-pin CD changer aux Kenwood cable (CA-C1AUX)). I also saw some 10$ cables that does the same thing but terminated with a 3.5mm jack so you dont need that silly Y-audio cable thingy. thanks all.

    Really simple question - what do I need to hook up my Droid to my car's audio system? At first I thought I could use a male-male mini 3.5mm cable, but after reading a bit, it looks like I need this instead...

    How to change power steering fluid?

    Hi all, Can anyone point me in the right direction in terms of replacing the power steering fluid? From what I hear, I can suck some up from the top, then for the rest, I can pull a hose (not sure which one), and then start pouring in new fluid until all the old has been flushed. Thanks in...

    How To: EGR Removal and Cleaning for Rough Idle Fix

    I too had sporadic idling issues with a P0300 code (multiple cylinder misfire), and was going to clean out EGR. Tried replacing coil packs (which looked fine thru visual inspection), and that fixed it.

    Car Studdering / Hesitation Engine Light On Puttering While Idle

    What is the next easiest way to check for vac leaks besides visual inspection? Its the P0300 Code, random misfire. I might check the EGR and PCV valve; maybe clean or replace, but I've seen folks had luck w/ replacing the coil packs... is it really necessary? Its an 03 with 62K... can't...
