  1. Geez, that car is light years ahead of every car lined up in front of it, ahahah
  2. Hahaha... I must admit though, when a MB is being a MB, they're hard to beat in terms of driving. That must be one good lookin' girlfriend you got there Mera! My wife could of been a bikini model "before I wrecked it by getting her pregnant", and all she got was a Mazda 3 and a cat! But, they do have heated seats, one electronically, and the other after a can of tuna! Hahaha... Don't do it. Mercedes are for Parvenus and snobs. They have contributed nothing to the automotive world post-1997. They rate at the bottom of consumer quality ratings, on top of the fact that the dealers and customer service treat you like absolute *BLEEP*. The only redeeming quality are the bodystyles (they do make a great looking car). However, I rode in the beautiful new s550 last summer and was extremely unimpressed. The leather and upholstery felt like crap and the whole front console looked bland and had cheap plastic everywhere. My neighbor has a 550 Maranello and has had multiple LS400s, 2chaey. If you absolutley must get this mercedes bug off your mind, pick up the CLS, that is a SICK looking car. Just be ready to be degraded by the condescending MB staff even after you fork over thousands of dollars of your hard earned cash.
  3. Make it a DIY job. The kits that are used totally block out the console. All that is left is a huge black space and a unit in the middle. This looks very tacky. I'd recommend fabricating, it's a pain, but its worth it in the end. Let me know if you want some pics of my setup.
  4. I don't see the drain hose anywhere. THe water is coming out of the big White thing with the filter door on it. I have no clue what the hel is going on with this leak!
  5. I recently changed my spark plugs in my 91 LS400. Did everything the correct way. A week later, I have water or some non-smelling liquid leaking into the passenger side of the car. I have no clue how to make it stop. PLEASE HELP!!
  6. Maniek, What place did you go to to get your headlamps cleared??
  7. I finaly finished one, however, im using 3m medium cut polish and I cannot get the lens to clear out, any suggestions???
  8. ive put in 9 hours and I havent even finished one lens yet :cries:
  9. Are there any other suggestions? I'm using 60 grit and it's taking forever!!
  10. Hi, I purchased an OEM set of Projectors, link is below, and I'm wondering what relays and harnesses I need to make them work. BTW why did that guy go through all that trouble to get help and just buy tires/!?!!? WTF http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...TRK%3AMEWA%3AIT BTW, for a 1991 LS400
  11. Great thanks a lot, Two things, What temp. Should I turn the oven to and what compound and polisher should I use??
  12. How do I go about polishing them, what tools do I need and what chemicals??
  13. Hi, I'm buying a factory oem HID Kit for my 91 ls400 and I want to get clear headlamps to go with it. I'm sick and tired of the factory ones. They do suck. Do the Celsiors hae clear lamps? Does anyone know where I can find these, I'd really appreciate it!!
  14. I RAN the code before anything and i got 25. air/fuel ration lean. I guess the 4 to two wire may be where i went wrong but when i finished it read ok on the voltmeter. So i guess ill order sum two wires and see what happens
  15. I Own a 91 Ls400 with 132,000 miles. It's the best car I've ever had. I've had it for a year now and I bought it with 119k on it. I finally had the check engine light and trac off lights come on. I researched for days and the common answer was the 02 sensors or the catalytic converter. I took out all 4 sensors and the main ones were ok. The sub sensors however didnt read anything so i replaced them with 2 universal sensors. The sensors I used were 4 wire and the sub were only two wire but when I finished everythhing I checked the capacity on the ohm meter and it registered ok. Thinking everything was finally ok I drove off and the stupid lights came on again!!!!!! I don't see how the catalytic converter can cause the cpu to shut off the traction control. I need help!! Any Ideas?????

    I recently got an LS400 after my brother wrecked my old Grand Prix. Car of my dreams!! However, the Pontiac was my first car and is sentimental, I'm sure you understand. the VIN is: 1g2wj14txlf273387 My e-mail is wentaay@yahoo.com Thanks!!
  17. Dude, did you just call your car an appliance? I didn't know that there were similarites between automobiles and refrigerators. Yea I like my beers cold, but a car does a lot more than just keep you warm or cold, it takes you places. Somebody needs to take your Lexus keys from you and give em to somebody who would not treat their car like its a refrigerator.
  18. The engine was built to take at least 91 octane. Putting in lower than the suggested amount is like giving your car a slap in the face for treating you so well. If you can't afford 93 octane and don't care about your car, DONT BUY a Lexus!! You're putting unnecessary strain on your engine, and you're sacrificing performance. I mean seriously, the LS basically does everything for you, all you do is steer and lightly push the gas and it goes fast. REALLY FAST!! :D :D :D :D
  19. I tried that already, i think the latch is shot.
  20. 1991 LS400, tried to close my trunk the other day. IT won't shut. I looked at the hinge thing and it seems to be a bit worn. But I have to fix it ASAP in case of rain. I obviously probably need a new part. However, I can't get the plastic housing off of it. Any suggestions? -Kurt
  21. ToddLS400 Where did you get the cladding painted? I really want to have this done and how much was it? -Kurt
  22. The driver's side window was smashed on his car and the alarm didnt go off. When you break into a car and unlock it the alarm is activated. Obviously the person who did it had the key to the car smart guy. Seriously there was a good 5k worth of just electronics in the car. And they knew not to take the GPS unit out. :chairshot: :chairshot: :chairshot:
  23. Thanks! I think I'm gonna go for the factory 2000 ls400 wheels in chrome or polished alloy.
  24. So 17''s/16''s should be ok w/ regular tires right?
  25. Todd, how much did you pay to have your bottom panels painted?
