    Excessive vibration at idle, with new motor mounts.

    They are aftermarket Berneckly(sp?) mounts, The car had one solid Poly race style mount on the lower front mount that I put back to stock. As for seafoam, you have actually already recommended that to me and I did that back in november, pcb. It helped a lot then but I don't know if it will help...

    Excessive vibration at idle, with new motor mounts.

I should note that I have recently installed a...

    Just so everyone knows, I have not tried this yet, I have been very busy, I am going to put in new motor mounts and headers in the next few weeks I will try to resolve this issue then.

    I want to make my shifter more smooth

    Going to steal the topic... My car is slow to shift 1st through 3rd when rev'ed past 3,000 rpm or so... what would cause this? is it an aging transmission or do I just need to do bushings and fluid? is a MT.

    Ebay Header

    Amen, I'm not sure why anyone would care what you did with your car, btw I admire the ingenuity. I'm not sure why anyone would get upset. I have the same level of home rigging on my own car... one tip: replace that back section of you intake with the rubber original, that u-pipe is currently...

If I can't I will...

    Life expectancy/reliability of Protege

    Floor vents blow air no matter what the setting is.

    Pretty much the problem. it will blow air out of the vent selected but will always also blow out the floor vents, wouldnt be a problem except when I run the ac as it doesn't push enough air to the back for my Daughter. Where do I look, I have never messed with cabin controls before, are they...

    P5 Vibration at Speed

    Check your motor mounts, and pay attention to wether its actually happening under load(acceleration). Mine does the same thing and my mounts are shot, I just ordered new one.

    P0705 Read all I could find just had some more questions.

    I got what your saying, I will as soon as I get some garage time, because at this point I don't believe it could be anything else. looking at the diagram, I would have to say that that switch takes way too long of a trip to the ECU and that was poor engineering and sooner or later they're going...

    P0705 Read all I could find just had some more questions.

    One more thing I noticed... when the car is warmed up it idles constantly at around 700 rpm, maybe, the ECU is reading clutch engaged? like at all times.

    Need cheap headers.

    Just seeing if I can score a cheap header for the car, needs to line up with the EGR and o2 my Primary cat has a crack through it and I totally am not paying for a new one. honestly just seeing if someone has an old one lying around, I know I can get them new for under $80

    P0705 Read all I could find just had some more questions.

    I am going to give this a go after a trip I need to take this weekend. So I should go for the neutral safety first? or the backup light or the Cruise disengage, because all three of these will independently give that code...

    P0705 Read all I could find just had some more questions.

    Well, same problem this morning, could a cold morning be a factor here? I'm running out of ideas, how could that code not throw last night, I put 20 miles on it and put the car in to neutral and stopped a ton...

    P0705 Read all I could find just had some more questions.

    Okay so update, on a whim I decided to swap the DTC sensor(cruise) back out with the old one, clear the code, and then I went driving. I read somewhere that it has to go in and out of neutral 10 times over 20 miles and hour, well I drove around town about 15 miles and hopped in and out of gear...
