My drivers side rear door wont stay shut. It was working fine, i unlocked the door from the inside, opened the door...10 seconds later i tried to close it and nothing. The door fully closes but the latch wont hold it shut. Is the latch busted? Can I replace it myself? Part number? Right now I have b...

The car was making a slight rubbing noise coming from the front drivers side wheel under low speed braking and sometimes during low speed driving. I took the wheel off and checked it out. Turns out I somehow lost the upper brake caliper bolt and the caliper would sometimes shift a little and rub on ...

Never mind

The majority of the vibration has been fixed, i was riding around with a bent wheel :P ...didnt even notice...i think I might have bent it while getting abit too side ways and kissing the curb with the back end this winter :P Put the summer wheels on, its much more bearable now, rattle and vibration...

Start simple. Did you check to see if your spare tire is secure? I'm gonnna be trouble shooting tomorrow... im gonna completely empty the trunk tomorrow including spare wheel, get my buddy to drive while i fold down the seats and poke around the back. I'll be changing the wheel bearings soon to see...

So i'm gonna be selling the car the soon so I just wanted to make a few repairs to get it in good shape. The back of my car rattles and vibrates like a mofo when going highway speeds. The car has been rattling for awhile now because my rear struts are blown and i need to change out the wheel bearing...

So I replaced the sensor, car has been running fine since...

..but I no longer feel comfortable driving my car, Its always in the back of my head that it will break down somewhere.

Meh, i'm selling it next month. Picking up an RSX or an EP3

Its been 3 weeks since the part was installed....car ran perfectly for 3 weeks....and today it stalled again and threw the Crankshaft position sensor error. WTF! I't wouldn't start and eventually the battery went flat. Had to have it towed. Garage is gonna check it over to see if the sensor failed, ...

Weight reduction: trunk carpet, spare wheel and jack, rear seats, passenger seat, rear door panels, headliner. And if your stock wheels are lighter with rubber, put those back on too.

Nitrous: 75 shot

That should do the trick I think.

Sensor replaced.... car running perfectly

It just a small local parts store here in ottawa called Big Boy auto. Idiots told me they ordered it and that it would be ready for pick up on saturday... I went on saturday and the part had not yet arrived. I was told it was gonna be here Monday, i'm about to go pick it up now, lets hope its there....

Ordered one. $59.99 CAD from a third party store.

Get a new crank sensor boss, bcuz when they fail, this same type of thing happens. Cam sensors will do the same thing as well, usually the car stalls out, and can't be restarted though. I would assume it doesn't stall when its cold because its using pre-determined fuel/spark tables on the pcm, and ...

. EDIT: Solved the problem, needed new crankshaft position sensor, installed it, car ran fine for 3 weeks, today car stalled again and threw crankshaft position sensor error code. Car is now at the shop and is gonna be diagnosed to see if there is a problem in the circuit, computer, or if the sensor...

The car eventually started without a boost. I tried starting it twice around 9am with no luck. I tried again at around 3pm, it was still just as cold but the car had been sitting in the sun all day....and it started. So im guessing its just the battery being old and being in a deep freeze sorta stat...

So it hit -20 Celsius last night / this morning. My car has never given me problems starting regardless of the temperature, but this morning it didn't start. I could hear the clicking and it was trying to turn over but seemed like there wasn't enough juice. So i'm thinking new battery? Is there anyw...

I'll start of by saying I don't really know much about car audio, my friends usually help me. So i bought a rockford fosgate 10'' T1 on ebay, its rated 600rms at 2ohms. It came in and I didn't have an amp so I tested it in my buddies car with his 250rms 2ohms sony amp. It wasn't that loud but it was...

This may seem like a dumb question, but how much fluid are you putting in it? Are you filling it to the top? yeah that isn't a bad price at all. Where exactly is the Steering fluid pump? is that the "rack"? If so I have an extra laying around. The pump is mounted right above the A/C compressor Yo. ...

$120 for a used/refurbished pump + $60 labour

My car is leaking power steering fluid, it isnt a large leak, it has never puddled and ive never seen drips in the drive way. Last week my steering felt a little heavy so i checked the fluid, when i popped the hood i noticed there was fluid all over and around the reservoir/pump, it was on the belts...

weight reduction

with coilovers u should be fine for the strut perch... but with the 225 u have to worry about rubbing on that bar behind the rear wheels... i forget what its called.

to be safe id recommend 215/40/18

Will not fit with stock struts

I ended up getting two new falken 912s and two used falken 512s at an awesome price of $235 installed and balanced!

And I have a set of bridgestone blizzacks mounted on the stock wheels for winter.

I had 215/45/17 last summer with a 1.5'' drop and stock struts, no rubbing.

Might wanna go with 205/45/17 ... even then you are pushing it.

I think you will rub.

You want something more like 215/35/18

16'' slipstreams ftw.

and do rotas come in any other sizes other then 15".....?

yes they do.

anyone running 17x8 wheels, and if so, what is your offset and what size tire are you running? would prefer to hear from someone with a non-srt, un-modified (coils, lowering, etc). i have a possible great deal on a set of them but have to price out tires to see what the end result will be. thanks I...
