did you do the timimg belt yourself?
Just noticed that under hard acceleration/braking/turning all my gauges decide to turn off. They remain lit but they don't read anything so I'm driving around randomly without an oil pressure, voltmeter and wideband. This sucks, I guess a wire is loose or something is grounding where it shouldn't. Any other ideas?
thanks for everyones support.
my car is at cottman transmissions right now, and theyre gonna do all the work for me. the guy has been more than helpful and is actually willing to help me in my lawsuit against the other shop.
ill keep everybody informed about how things are goin.
hey amsgator, what K HIDs did you get?

No, my fathers friend has a shop, I supplied the belts ($100) and he installed the 3 plus oil change for $200.

Where did you get them?(strike)

I got my P5 Inspected today . Those of you with a header knows what kind of nail biting expierence that is LOL. first thing the guy did before he even started the car was pop my hood so in my head I am allready telling myself I am screwed . The guy took one look under my hood and say my intake along with my header and since I have a few things painted and its very clean under the hood he thought I had alot more done. First thing out of his mouth was can you bring it back tomorrow because it is not going to pass inspection. I asked him why and he said it was because of all the stuff done under the hood . I told him hook it up to the machine it will pass. So he said my window tint was to dark I said no its not put it on a meter it will pass. so he said okay and pulled it into the garage . all he did was hook my car up to the machine he did not check lights horn or anything else he did not even check the window tint. My car passed so now my nerves will be calm for another 11 months

i hate the inspection process i'm tempted to move to FL or some other state that doesn't require it...it's so much BS it drives me crazy...the system is so screwed up that a couple of yrs ago they almost scrapped the emissions piece because the software was failing everyone! i see car driving around here that shouldn't even be on the road, yet they have a current sticker....it sucks!(moon)I got my P5 Inspected today .

^^^^x2 A few years ago PA scrapped their emissions testing and as of 2/3 years ago implemented a new test.....which also doubled the price of the testing. I don't know about MA, but another thing that seems odd is the state doesn't mandate the price of our state inspections. One shop could charge you $35 for the regular inspection while another will charge you $18?!?!(uhm)
