    How To: EGR Removal and Cleaning for Rough Idle Fix

    Thanks. I spoke to the dealer and found out I'm covered under the extended warranty, for the new type with different hoses. So my question now is, can I drive the car in w/o reinstalling the valve? Will it run/idle at all, or just die? Keep in mind, when installed, my faulty valve causes...

    Tire help, what ones will last longer

    Well, FFS they can't get the Exclaim's for me. They're backorderd for at least 6 weeks, probably longer. I can't wait that long. So I ordered the Toyo Proxes 4's, in stock size. I hope the dunlops last till they arrive, 9-12 days (shrug) .

    Who's used 205/55/16 on OEM P5 wheels?

    I need to replace the OEM Dunlops on my 03 P5 (I use winter's 5 months of the year and only put on like 20,000 km's/year so they've lasted a good while, probably 12 of those 20 are on the non-winter's). Canadian driver, East coast. First post too! I have the leather pkg that added the sunroof...
