What special about 2006+ stuffs, Benz ?

[Benz_05TSX]

^ The 2006+ tail lights, the inner circle where the reverse bulb is, its smoked/tinted vs. the 2005 which is clear. All the circle has a different reflective pattern as well. 2006 HID ballast is smaller and will fit perfectly on my 2008 JDM headlights. The 2005 HID ballast is bigger and does not fit directly on the newer headlights. Thus exposing the hole on the bottom which can cause condensation. I don't want to fill that hole either because I don't like to temper with OEM parts.

^ how many KMs for second service? what did they do for $950?

22k KM,

they claimed to do Full inspection: Engine, Wheels, lights, seat belts, windshield wipers, air filter, cooling system, steering etc.. $650

change brake fluids.. $100

fuel injection clean.. $200

[Z3guy]

^ Geezz, $650 for a full inspection?...I hate the stealerships doing these inspections....money making grab imo........BMW and Audi do the same thing.......

^ Geezz, $650 for a full inspection?...I hate the stealerships doing these inspections....money making grab imo........BMW and Audi do the same thing.......

it's weird cuz I had a 335xi for almost 2 year before this, only had 1 full service done and it was totally free.

on the AMG.. have 2 full service done in 1 year and 3 months with 22k km... I understand the AMG engine is expensive to maintain but it's such a unreasonable rip off !!! lol

[Z3guy]

^ I guess when you buy an AMG/RS/M car, they know you are willing to spend more on maintenance Vs C250/A4/323i consumers......Let's say MB charges $150/hr labour....they spent over 4hrs inspecting your car??? sounds like a 1hr or 2hr job tops!

Started taking out the old ugly purple tint that came with my car.
Having some trouble with rear window, tint is very brittle because of the years of exposure it had to the sun.

Breaks off right away when attempt to pull if off smoothly. I'm only able to take it off with a razor but obviously I can't do that where the heater lines are.
Side windows came off fine as they weren't nearly as sun damaged as the rear window.
I tried spraying degreaser we have a work and it helps the tint come off clean with a razor but cant peel it all off because of how brittle it is.
Any tips of how I can take it off?

I've got the same speakers. With proper EQ'ing boosting mainly the midrange, they sound orgasmic. Great choice!

Started taking out the old ugly purple tint that came with my car.
Having some trouble with rear window, tint is very brittle because of the years of exposure it had to the sun.

Breaks off right away when attempt to pull if off smoothly. I'm only able to take it off with a razor but obviously I can't do that where the heater lines are.
Side windows came off fine as they weren't nearly as sun damaged as the rear window.
I tried spraying degreaser we have a work and it helps the tint come off clean with a razor but cant peel it all off because of how brittle it is.
Any tips of how I can take it off?

I had the same problem not long ago and surprisingly enough the best thing to get it out is gasoline, funnel some 87 octane into a spray bottle and use an old t-shirt or cloth and it should wipe right out.

Acetone also works. If you have nail polish remover around, that has acetone in it and should work as well. I used my girlfriend's nailpolish remover on my car and then it smelled like sunshine afterwards. :tears:

Great you see you had a great experience with Fastrack, but you didn't really read the first post, did you?


What did you do to your vehicle today?
Like many people on RS, I'm getting the impression that the majority of members here don't even do the most basic mechanical jobs themselves anymore and have zero mechanical ability. I want to see who among us has grease covered hands, cut up knuckles and as much invested in tools as most people do on mods. Post what you did to your own or a friends vehicle today. Do not post what you paid someone to do to your vehicle.

[AVS_Racing]

washed it, god damn the water is cold

[Acura604]

3 things...

1. 18" A-specs are off and 17" stockies with blizzaks are on.
2. Probably did the last hand wash of car for the year. (Too freakin' cold)
3. Although these guys have gotten a bad rap, many thanks to Richmond Acura for replacing my pitted headlights with brand new OEM set under warranty.

Took a few valve covers to U-blast and in Langley and did some media blasting. Never going to bother with paint stripping chemicals again if I don’t have to. Highly recommend this place, they will suggest the correct media to use, facilities are clean and well setup, they charge about 63 bucks an hour but it only took me about 45 minutes to do three valve covers.

My bad :(

To redeem my last post... I replaced my battery yesterday. The OEM one lasted a respectable 4.5 years, but my car didn't start once on Thursday.

I replaced it with a Kirkland one from Costco. Might have paid for the battery, but did the swap myself...

[dvst8]

cleaned and undercoat wheel wells.

Started the car today for a bit and removed my rear spoiler since I'm thinking of going wingless next year.

Swapped on the winter set, steelies ftw! With some anti-seize this time so I don't have to half kill myself trying to take them off again!

Started taking the LS1 out of my donor car. Mostly wiring, headers, coilpacks, etc.

I decided to take all the front panels off and hack the front end back a couple of feet to make things easier when I go to pull the motor.

Then I started going through the wiring, marking them off and taking note of how they're routed. Came across some half-ass, hack-job connections that I'm going to have to fix later (unless I decide to shell out $1k for a custom plug and play unit).

There, that frees up some space:

Gonna spiffy up the engine bay a bit and then send the car off to get fully repainted either this month, or in February, depending on the money situation.

Also wish I had another set of seats for the DC; the stock ones are too high and my head is scraping the roof.

lol, I have seats in the garage now.

Nice work Yoda but wouldn't it have been a lot less work to get it blasted first? I get the cost involved but it just comes out so much cleaner, ready for welding/fab/primer.

No, in fact it would have been more of a hassle.

Undercoating is meant to repel material, blasting it takes forever if you aren't using sand, and the media isn't cheap.

Stripping most of it off, only leaving the residue, makes it tremendously easy to blast it clean with walnut media, not to mention that it takes a third of the media to complete.

Then why not use sand? Well, sand heats up the surface like nobody's business, meaning that the time it takes to strip the undercoating off would most likely warp the thin 22 guage metal. Sand is an antique in terms of blasting media, it simply causes too many problems unless it's on thick metal.


The only way we would have bothered treating the car first, is if we brought it to an acid dipping facility, but that is REALLY expensive compared to this method.

Just an FYI, only get CREE LED's for reverse lights if they point straight back, as the TSX.

My Accord had reverse lights that are angled at 45 degrees, and the reverse lights would shine at that angle only. If you're reverse lights are angled and you want LED's you need SMD bulbs.

[91civicZC]

Fitted my pulleys and super charger belt to see that it all mounted correctly to the DOHC rather than the SOHC it was designed for.

Removed it all afterward to be able to access a sensor that’s broken in the block.

Oil change and New bosch wires for the loyale

[Acura604]

Washed up the A-specs for winter storage. Brake dust is my new nemesis. The shit piles on even after a few hours driving.

A-specs hung on wall and bagged.

QUESTION: should I leave the tire inflation alone at 32 or deflate and to what level for at least 5months storage?

LOL to keep it short, I dont know what I'm getting next. I sold it because as much as people gave me compliments about the car, I was never completely satisfied with it, I could never give it the look I want the car to have. Yeah I did just put the flares on etc, gave it meaty fitment, I did get to enjoy it for a little. And thanks for all the compliments you gave me man, your G coupe may be an inspiration to get one haha.

Drove it to work and back and never got it up to normal operating temp

[Energy]

Switched to winter wheels and tires..

275 rears and 235 fronts to 225 on all four corners :okay:

[satek]

^ the skinnier the tire the better it is in snow, that's why rally cars have such skinny tires.

[fliptuner]

Yeah I know that. Its just feels so different haha.

[GabAlmighty]

What i'm gonna start doing for short city trips, throw some cardboard in there.

[fliptuner]

It'll be fine all through winter. The ambient temperature is cool enough to not worry about leaving it covered. I'm going to cut up a plastic, spare tire cover off a Honda and zapstrap it to the grill.

I remembered running the same set up on my old 335... massive fun in the snow/cold! :fullofwin:

[Energy]

Yeah, I'm realizing why Chris Harris said the C63 was really fun to drive on four spare tires lol

Until they start streaking two weeks later....... Guess how I know?

[lilaznviper]

^+1 the wiperblades suck

[AVS_Racing]

^^ bosch ones do, fucking endurance ones started streaking water after 3 weeks. what should I replace them with? oem?

[gilly]

needed a car wash so I decided to try out sensha-ya... a RS sponser. Overall, the service was good. Very fast wash.. less than 10 minutes but they did miss a spot on the bottom passenger door. They were all japanese and had difficulty understanding english. Before I told them what I wanted them to do, they started to wash the car while I was still inside the car lol. Then they told me to step out and they started to clean the interior. I told them to stop because I didn't want to pay more for interior cleaning. When I went inside to pay, I was expecting to pay $25 like advertised on the website but I was only charged just over $16. Probably there was a promotion that I wasn't aware about. I remember RS having a thread on this carwash place and how you guys praised about all the LGs washing their cars. Well, there were two cute girls working today and washing my car :fullofwin:
