What have you done to your P5 today?

[JDMJNKY]

Wiper delete only cost me $2 bucks

 

[Josue6WGN]

^ clean!

I'm a HUGE fan of the rear wiper though, at least on our Trailblazer. We couldn't believe how much crap gets caked on that rear window?? But, one swipe with the wiper, and we're good again. It's the little things in life...lol

OH, and we're almost home from our road trip to get my p5!!! Pics in the a.m...

1. What the hell is that gray blotch right above the bodyline on the DS door?

2. Needs 03.5 lip and black headlights badly (my opinion only).

Crap on my SLR's sensor :'(

I'll probably pass on the MSP lip, but something new will happen with my lights soon

 

[azuelke]

Hmmm, secret plans... SPILL IT! (rofl2)

So I think my new mid-pipe is rattling against the support brace thats right under it... any ideas on what I should do? like I was thinking a few strips of duck tape but idk if thats the best since it mite burn

 

[Scorch03]

header wrap instead of duct tape.

 

[azuelke]

^ This. Duct tape is melt away fairly quick.

 

[JDMJNKY]

Got rid of that gay wiper make's the rear look a whole lot cleaner.

[Josue6WGN]

Thanks guys! I'll be selling off all of the turbo stuff to pay for a new motor (something SERIOUSLY wrong with it) I can't wait to tear into it!

Congrats Josh...I'll be sure to check out pics when I get home.

Noticed an annoying squeak coming from the DS rear today. When I push down on the DS it squeaks like hell and nothing when I push down on the PS...also took notice that I cannot slip my ring finger inbetween the rsb and lca on the DS whereas I can fit two fingers easily between them on the PS???

Same thing happened to me, it's easy to fix. One of the little rubber donuts that centers the sway bar probably broke off (mine was still on the bar but the metal band around it had fallen off). You need to loosen the sway bar bushings, center the bar (use a rubber mallet), tighten the bushings, and finally replace the broken centering donut. I re-used the old rubber donut and replaced the metal band with a narrow hose clamp, it's held up for almost a year now

While truck shopping for Amy, almost traded the P5 in for a 2009 3 hatch with 5 spd and 51k on the odo

You mean on the endlink? I installed a Progress bar and AWR adj endlinks a couple of weeks ago. The brackets and bushings on the bar are fine and just went back out and sprayed some WD-40 on the lower end of the end link while my buddy pushed down on the car and the squeak is gone. Going to have to tighten them up and throw some grease on them.
