    I feel like I'm on a subscription to heated seat controls

    Ok so I noted a bit of corrosion one one of the PCB components. But anyways, new DDM seems to have it all sorted Programming not needed when matching pedals, folding mirrors, etc

    Finally got a gap in the rain Yeesh Anyways, harness between door and body looks in good condition. No chafing of wires or moisture ingress

    I feel like I'm on a subscription to heated seat controls

    The wires in the door or the little rubber encased dingus bit that goes between door and body? I didn't trace everything through the door, but what I could easily see and access looked OK. I'm a little skittish with the rubber encased bit going between door and body (I can never get those...

    I feel like I'm on a subscription to heated seat controls

    Cleaning grounds didn't get me anywhere Had a spare seat heater switch I tossed in. Improved, but not solved. So I'd be what... Turning my attention to the master window switch as a potentially 2-factor contribution to this? Some poking around led me down a rabbit hole if maybe it would...

    Ok so.... The seat / pedal controls on the door? I don't seem to get along with. Works fine for a year or 2, then roll into winter and it just goes stupid and stays stupid. I've tracked it down to moisture and humidity. Seems like rain, humidity, cold weather causes the thing to start...

    Aftermarket Intake trouble shooting MPG

    Not sure if your rig has the 'gallons used' counter on the DIC. Mine has it, it's been accurate for me within 5% As far as filling consistently, see if you can find a spot that has you aimed slightly nose-down. The fill neck is on the rear of the tank. Will reduce any air lock in the tank...

    Leaking transmission cooler lines

    Honestly they're not too bad to change. It's like an hour to hour and a half job. Most of which is spent cursing at either the clips or trying to thread the line out the front 2 things of note: 1. Replace the fittings too 2. They'll probably get bent a little bit on install trying to thread...

    Crank, no start on first attempt randomly

    What happens if you cycle the key to run for a second, off, then try to start again? Mine does something similar-ish on a warm start at times. Though it needs a longer crank. But in my case, it's pretty much textbook fuel pump anti drain back valve. Or perhaps an injector weeping a bit while...

    Oil Pump Compatibility

    For sure I look at it like this: If you're at a point where you can decide on minor stuff like the care and feeding of your filter, you're doing pretty darn good! Take care of your ride, and it'll take care of you.

    Oil Pump Compatibility

    If that works for you, go for it! But also how dare you assume I don't change my oil in a bog. Maybe I have! Maybe I like to change mine in a sandstorm (dododododo) because it knocks the sun glare down

    Oil Pump Compatibility

    Nah not usually. There's a risk of getting grit/debris in there when filling it since you're pouring from the post-filter side Instead, turn the igntion to 'on', wait wait for the DIC to boot up, floor the accelerator for a second or 2, and while keep it it fully depressed, crank the engine...

    Immobilizer? Bypass? How safe are these ignitions?

    Yeah I don't keep anything of any value in my car I have like.... A dog leash, phone charger, jumper cables, and a couple blankets Hell I don't even lock my car. The damage due to forced entry would exceed anything of value that would be taken. Didn't stop some dingus from goobering up my...
