    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Me neither. I got a used VLOM from someone locally. He said it was working but his cylinder 4 lifter died. Replaced his lifter before driving down to SC from New Jersey and number 4 died again. Got his money back from the parts store and threw in some BTR replacement parts to delete the AFM...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Got around to working on this project again. Installed the new pump. Rotor is larger in diameter and thicker too. The housing outlet passages were smoothed out and I filled the gears up with assembly lube before putting the front cover on right before starting it up so I wouldn't have to...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    I only did the AFM lifters on the odd bank. It fixed the misfire but not the ticking. I have since bought an OE higher flow oil pump and cleaned up the casting while I was waiting for an opportunity to install it. Hopefully I'll get it installed before the end of the year. Something I've...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Finally got around to swapping in a new set of AFM lifters. The misfire is gone but it's clattering like crazy still. I took off a valve cover and let it run and only saw oil flowing freely out of the front and rear lifters (only 2 of the 8). The oil pressure is around 40psi at a cold start...

    Do I need to do anything with this battery current sensor?

    I'll have to look up some info on how it works on these vehicles. Sounds interesting. I'm wondering how the temp sensor determines the battery temp or if it assumes based on engine bay temps.

    Do I need to do anything with this battery current sensor?

    Makes sense to me. Audis like to know that the battery is new and fully charged so it can put back in as much power as is used when the engine is started and accessories are on. It becomes a problem when it tries to shove more power into fully charged replacement battery if you don't tell...

    Do I need to do anything with this battery current sensor?

    I'm replacing the battery on my 2005 Suburban. It didn't want to start this morning the first 2 tries (clicking acting dead) but then started right up. Stopped somewhere for about 10 minutes and it did it again. When I got to work, the battery smelled like rotten eggs and I ordered a new one...

    Tailgate glass pops open randomly.

    Hmm... must just be a pin yhat lets the smoke out. I am glad that I haven't had the issue since the battery was unhooked overnight. Thanks for the diagram on the trailer harness. I will have to take a closer look to see where the loose wires come from.

    Just bought a Yukon

    I'm waiting on a new part to solder into the board in the BCM and see what happens. Should be here in the next week to month and a half. Ever since the alarm went off at midnight and I unhooked the battery overnight, it hasn't happened any more. Not sure still what's going on with it...

    Airaid Cold Air Intake

    If you still have issues after that, just put the original on and see if it goes back to normal. If so, then you might want to call airraid and see what they have to say. If not, there's something that has been overlooked.

    And the adventure begins.

    I like the new wheels a lot better than the 5 spokes.

    Plastic inner fenders splash guard

    Thank you sirs. I appreciate it!

    Plastic inner fenders splash guard

    I'd keep them on. I'm actually in need of some fasteners for the liners on my 07 Yukon at the moment. If you decide to take them off, would you mind measuring the push in fasteners or the holes? Mine are all pretty much gone going into the fenders and the bumpers are falling off because the...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Decided to take the head off and throw a set of AFM lifters from ebay into it and see what happens. I'll take out the oil pressure sender and check the screen while I'm there. If everything works out fine after that then I'll be happy. Otherwise, the intake and VLOM are easier to take back...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Time apart doesn't matter at this point because I bought it to flip it once it runs well enough, and decide if I like the body style enough to get a hybrid. This one was less than half the price of the one I was interested in and I'd rather get familiar with one that's going to be sold before I...

    2008 Tahoe STILL has misfire. Please send help

    This may be a stupid question, but since it wasn't mentioned I'll ask. Did you try swapping plug wires and coils around to see if the misfire moves? Have you done a compression test? I know it's a new engine, but that doesn't mean it wasn't built on a Friday at quitting time. Just sayin'.

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    Found my issue with cylinder 7. The front rocker isn't rocking. I started it up just to see what it looked like. There is some pressure pushing up on the pushrod when the engine is running but not enough to move the rocker. After shutting off the engine, it took about 15 seconds before the...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    I know the AC was off but I'm sure the parking brake was not applied. I will try again when I get to work this morning and hook up the scanner. 09:50am - So I tried again after driving to work with the parking brake on and it finally cleared out after 3 tries. Seems like an unnecessary thing...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    This is what happens currently when I try to relearn the crank position. It says test is running but then it just sits there thinking until I restart the scan tool.

    Tailgate glass pops open randomly.

    This is the pin it seems to power up.

    Tailgate glass pops open randomly.

    So... I was poking around under the dash and found what looks to be a tracking device for a buy here/pay here type of place. Just a power and ground pulled from the OBD2 port. Disconnected that. It looks like there used to be a trailer brake module that somebody took with them and left the...

    AFM Issues / Misfire

    I tried that a few times. I don't think it likes that it's misfiring right now. I swapped the ignition parts around from #7 to each other odd cylinder with no difference. Didn't swap injectors yet. Misfire is on cylinder 7 still. I think I should do a compression check but the random alarm...

    Tailgate glass pops open randomly.

    Update: 12:01am Just ran outside to shut off the alarm and it shut itself off before I got out of the house. When I got to it, the rear top brake/running lights were on dim again but so was the right front park/turn signal bulb. I disconnected the battery so it wouldn't do that again for...
