Lol no I had to chase them away. This was way too intense for me to have the patience for them.
Although those tiny little hands would of been mighty handy for reaching all the tiny spots I had to...
Thanks John!
I can't drive it until I get the tune... too many errors. The DDE freaks out with all that stuff gone and puts it in limp mode. I haven't even bothered to start it.
Right now, it has 16 DTC codes...
Damn, I wish I knew that before I paid lol.
I’ll be reading and sending the DDE file to them tonight.
I’ve been corresponding with a guy named Owain
If you can afford it, get them to do it. I wouldn't wish that job on my worst enemy. Everything is barely accessible. I had to use a mirror to see most of the electrical connections, bolts, etc. You...
Full emissions delete finished yesterday. Took a week. What a F’n PITA! I’ll never want to do that again. Just have to install the Malone 2.9 tune. This thing will be a beast!
Here’s the pile of...
Thanks for the link! I thought that was only for the F series
New wheels on. I’m really liking them!
20X10.5 front 20X11 rear
New Conti DWS all the way around
Got an OEM trailer hitch installed as well
Also have applied the Rod Sutphin trans tune. This...
Not much to update. Filled the DEF tanks. Took about 3 gallons to fill both tanks.
Painted both lower center grills.
Installed BMW cross bars for the roof box and new wiper blades for the trip...
Ok thanks guys. I was thinking that they wouldn’t work
In what way? Tread contact?
Need some quick advice. Got new wheels for the X5 but the fronts are an inch narrower than the OEM wheels:8.5 vs 9.5
The tires are 275/40/20
Is this going to be a problem?
Thanks Stu. The diesel seems to be pretty reliable. We’re hoping that the rest of it treats us well.
It has a few annoying issues like the comfort access on the drivers door handle doesn’t work and...
Ok thanks! I was wondering how to do that without spending big $$ on a lift jack.
Do you know the brand model of your lift? Perhaps length and width too?
It seems relatively short and narrow to...
How did you support the back of the car on the lift? And how did you jack it up to get the rr wheels off the ground?
Been holding off on the 4 post lift for this reason
It still feels like it falls off a bit in the upper RPM range.
I spoke too soon about not getting code as it coded right after I posted about it lol
Had to back it off to around 80%. The code was...
As long as I don’t get any codes, I’m good lol.
Seems to be running good
Lol yep! It still gets better fuel economy than the MDX, even with the JB-D on it.
I found out that the JB-D has an internal dial that adjusts the percentage of power. It's turned all the way down...
The window sticker I posted above says 19 city and 26 hwy
IDK. I do have a Burger Tuning JB-D on it. I never mpg before installing that. I’ll have disconnect it and recheck mpg
Really? I’m not getting any better gas mileage than the MDX. 18-20 mpg city and highway doesn’t seem to make a difference
Cool, yea if the turbo ever goes, we’ll upgrade
Come on down!
Found out there are two tanks in this vehicle. tTere is a tool in the tool compartment for taking the lids off. Kristen said that it will display a count down warning from 1000 miles till shut off...
The passenger side one is beat to shit. I have a backup pair somewhere in the loft of the garage that I'll put on some day
