  1. i might say the tech tightned the belt too tight causing aditional drag on the engines crankshaft and the belt
  2. year of vehicle? my 94 has no hooks on the mats which i used to wish it had not sure if the first gen 89-91 es 250 did i highly doubt it
  3. thanks i wanted to say that but since i have to kinda of stream line things i almost sounds like an arrogant !Removed! i looked through my scanner book and tehre is 50 pages of about 40 codes a page so there is no way i am going to post all 50 pages
  4. everythibng you mentioned sounds just like leagal issues for a car manufacturer so tehy make it "safe" the problems are across the board with almost every car with a lcd screen reason why i have an aftermarket one the headphones i think you are stuck with for out puts it may take a rewire of the system the dvd plays only to keep it paused so you can get out for a bit and resart the screen shuts off as it is a remote powered unit meaning you would need to add a switch and battery constant to get it to work all the time and that is the easiest of these problems to tackle the remote problem might be easier if you got a small reflector and aimed it to face rearwards and against another miror especially if you have an oversized rear view mirro it would work great
  5. get some duct tape and as gettho as it sounds seal the hole thing by wraping the ribs indivdually some people may have an old pipe i do but i am in canada since i put a cold air intake system which replaced the pipe try it and it sounds like you may have solved the problem fix it and show your dad and tehn say those guys on the website told me how :P
  6. the problem is the lcd behind the semi reflective mirror is heating up far beyond its specified value the side that would be darker obviously is getting more heat or sun it need to be cooled down or a thicker strip of tint may need to be applie to the upper part of the winsheild above the behind the mirror if it stay black it may be because the lcd panel has craked and now cannot change with a different voltage applied to it anymore
  7. there is a little black nub beside the shifter base pop off the tab and there is a slot push your key into the hole and the shifter will release the lock i doubt it might be abel to damage the parking pall lock on the tranny
  8. buy the bracket from the dealer it is going to be made to fit the lines of the car i am not sure how much it is though also it will require drilling the bumper i have a dealer frame ,even though my car isn't from them i just like the way it covers the edges nicely in black and also helps to block the highway cameras form seeing my rear plate properly since it is a personal plate the L's look like I , so i usually don't get billed the 407 highway goes around Toronto and is noth america's first electronic toll highway it uses cameras to take pics of the rear plate if the car does not have a transponder in it
  9. spoilers are in real use on a race track as they add downforce at higher speeds do they decrease the value, no , unless it is 3 feet tall but i doubt you ever get back the money for them when selling the car i think they might add drag to a car rather than lowering its co-efficent of drag though i personally like a nice spoiler that sit on the trunk and forms to the cars lines just my taste
  10. first you put this in the RX section ;) maybe a rx mod will move it to the es section as they never made a 94 rx also look at the faq for info on self diagnosis or try the search function
  11. i buy mine at costco well my wife buys them for the house stuff and i steal them lol great for cleaning chrome i use plain water nothing else also just damp barely , to remove the film
  12. how much do you want for the lemon :D
  13. it is a big silicone wiper blade it feels just like a silicone breast ;) just a bit more real it is really soft ad i think it is blue about 8 inches wide and 4 high
  14. wow 2 hours :( i wish mine was that quick it takes me that long to wash and vac the car i guess i am too anal it takes about 8 hours for me and that is with a high speed polisher but i use a 3 stage
  15. there is not 7 th injector on a 1mz-fe only the old cast iron lumps
  16. rotating the tires will only help i replacing all 4 tires at once not just 2 but the tires will still go bad in an area they should be still say it is excess weight in the trunk
  17. you can buy new mats for about $100 or put the old one in the coin laundry mats they are usually big enough to fit all 4
  18. as long as you used tranny fluid for the power steering and not power steering fluid you should be ok
  19. that's cool i am glad you found out before you did your car any damage i may have also forgot to mention to use the soapy water solution when using the power washer as this should provide more than adequate lube but then again i have been to a few and they don't provide much high pressure soap my cousin has a 2400 psi gas powered washer and it can etch ashphalt so i wouldn't recomment that but that is also with a straight stream not a wide band of water ,concentrated in a small spot the letting the cement dry sounds like a good idea also i just don't know cements characteristics would letting it sit in the sun all day and ten blastnig it with the power washer not then cause it to crack? just a thought
  20. i didn't know that they made both i know they made the first ones front bumper and i think it is ugly as hell the other one is not bad though
  21. please try and add on going problems to the last posts you made of the same issue as it helps in diagnosing the car with a braod picture otherwise members would have o go and search back to see what was already done i will try and find it and link it to this post if i can
  22. theo/d light blinks when the torque convetor is having problems of not releasing get a tranny flush asap and you might get lucky and fix it
  23. when a CEL check engine light goes on it can be one of a fwe hundred things as it reads tons of sensors and values of each
  24. the 94 year also had a hydralic fan as well as other years and in there cars it seems to work great but it is an aluminum engine rather than a steel one
  25. OMG man crop your pics the trees like nice and all with the garage but ,you know it overall size is huge some losers like me are too cheap and are still on dial up the rims are nice though
