Because of the balance, I know this test is done. And just can't find any info on it. The test is done on a engine stand at the factory. New motor, unlimited gasoline,dino oil, They start the engine and bring it to full throttle and run it until it seizes up. How long does it take ?

Till it runs out of gas :P Yeah, I'll go along with that! lol :whistles: Maybe JPI could shed some light on this. All jokes on the side.

Till it runs out of gas :P

When it comes to tools I have to see them, Pick them up and make sure they are the right tool for me. Besides I like browsing the tool section. You never know what you come across.

Just wondering if anyone knows how long a inline 3.0 l6 will last from New w/dyno oil, To full throttle until the motor seizes. How long will the motor last ?

Sweet! Glad to hear you got it out with that tool! I think Sears is supposed to have a sale on that tool on Saturday (at least around here) for like $9.99. Might have to pick one up... I was going to say if that bolt out didn't work, to take a socket nearest that size and pound it on what was left of the bolt head. Nice job man! Sure am happy for you, I know how these things can be a real PITA. Now I want to go purchase tools. Thanx

Cut it as a last resort, Try everything else first. The Sears Bolt -Out looks good.

Adjust the spring tension in the trunk, There are three settings I beleive. Search, There is a thread on this.

Yes, you're going from most reliable to least reliable <_< Ford and chevy are the worst cars you can buy. I concur.

Maybe the laser that needs to be realligned and cleaned. Clean it first to see if there is a change, Use bought cd's for the test.

Truer words were never spoken! Nicely done! B) "AMERICA!" Osama Bin Laden, your time is short; We'd rather yo! u die, than come to court. Why are you hiding if it was in God's name? You're just a punk with a turban; a pathetic shame. I have a question, about your theory and laws; "How come you never die for the cause?" Is it because you're a coward who counts on others? Well, here in America, we stand by our brothers. As is usual, you failed in your mission; If you expected pure chaos, you can keep on wishing Americans are now focused and stronger than ever; Your death has become our next endeavor. What you tried to kill, doesn't live in our walls; It's not in buildings or shopping malls. If all of our structures came crashing down; It would still be there, safe and sound. Because pride and courage can't be destroyed; Even if the towers leave a deep void. We'll band together and fill the holes We'll bury our dead and bless their souls. But then our energy will focus on you; And you'll feel the wrath of the Red, White and Blue. So slither and hide like a snake in the grass; Because America's coming to kick your !Removed!!!!

cbroadus213, Glad you found it with the "SEARCH" feature, Your best tool on these boards.

Thanks for the Advice I would go with Guy's advice and have it checked out.

Often enough the person who changed the oil did not wipe up good enough after changing the oil filter. They almost always make a mess when they take the old one off. Keep an eye on it if it continues after a weak or so bring it back and have them look at it. You can check to see if the drain plug is tight. Probably spillage.

And what if the thief had a lookout that had a red dot on your head all the time ? The lookout would have had quite a rush also. Such a dynamic situation demands a lot more cool than you displayed IMHO. Yes, I own 23 assorted guns. It isn't easy to make the right decisions in the heat of the moment.

Does the light on the drivers seat switch come on ? Check the fuses, Connections, Most likely the switch is dirty, But it could be the element.

Well at least we know first hand now that he is a real jerk. I have a buddy that bought a 40th edition mustang and now he wants a GS 400/430. When I see him he just shakes his head. Ha Ha Ha

Sorry guys, All the units are gone. How about 04 GX? should it be allright too? My dealer said if it's an exchange for a new one, will charge only 699.99. But the fact that we don't have any!! WE NEED SOME!! PLEASE!!! I don't beleive that the 04 is prewired, Look under the center console. No

Welcome to the boards , We need another "fish" around here. Congrats on your new IS. We still like to see some pix. B)

It's been awesome. It's much faster than my SC, both off the line and passing. Much faster. Handles great, and the interior is awesome. I was only getting one if I could get the 430, with nav, chrome 17", spoiler. Big difference between this car and a more conservative looking 300 w/no options. I've had a 7-series, bunch of other cars, and this is my favorite car by far. Mark Levinson is in-dash.

Sounds like tire issues.

I have changed out my brake pads twice since I took delivery of my GS, Both times I put in new shims. They take a beating and wear down. Some say to use them over but I disagree. I never have brake noise/clunks etc... New pads+new shims= smooth/quiet brakes. The stock rotors seem to last forever.

All the disc I played were purchased. It seems like dust because I can blast it with compressed air and it works OK for a while. Have you ever taken the player out of the dash? I would be easier to clean. Clean the laser with a cd-rom cleaning disc, You might have to repeat the procedure 2-3 times. This should clear up your popping/static.
