    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    So I’ve been putting off fixing my exhaust for over a year now. I’ve been running a flow master 40 series custom set up for like 7ish years, and the tail pipe had rusted completely off a while back and I was essentially just running the flow master and about two inches of pipe. I initially was...

    Rust Question

    I'm from Maryland, so that doesn't look too bad to me. Wire wheel what you can get to, then soak her down twice a year with Fluid Film and enjoy!

    Driving on beach

    I have to agree with don't overthink the features. I'm actually on Assateague a lot (I prefer the VA side in Chincoteague). Air down (I usually go about 20-24 on Assateague) but in OBX I go lower (15ish) because the sand seems softer to me. I have actually ::gasp:: not aired down on...

    Safe to dump exhaust under the body like this?

    My exhaust rusted off right around that same spot about a year ago and I haven't had any issues. I have a flowmaster muffler and the loss of the tail pipe didn't do anything sound wise. I'll have to get this fixed before my next MD emissions test tho.

    Can I get a rust check?

    As a Maryland guy, she looks good to me. Soak her down with Fluid Film twice a year and call it good

    Diagnosing Chirp on Warm Up w/o Accesory Belt

    So I've been dealing with squeak/squeal/chirps for probably 3 years. I've actually narrowed it down (for me) to relative humidity. I rarely, if ever, get noises in the spring/summer with the humidity of the ambient air is higher. In the winter, when the humidity is lower, I will get random...

    Opinion on this rust

    Ah man the infamous how much rust question. Those of us from the rusty states will say "Hey pal that's pretty clean! Wire wheel and fluid film twice a year and you'll be good" and guys from like Arizona or something will be like "Ewwww its literally falling apart run away". For real though...

    Check Engine Lighte/EVAP Problems

    fwiw my 05 had EVAP codes intermittently at about 250ishK miles. A smoke test revealed a ::barely visible:: leak around the brand new gas cap because the filler neck was misshapen from years of hanging fuel nozzles on it. My mechanics told me they could replace the neck or "press down hard"...

    2000 LX470 Old Man Tan for my Dad - noob questions (rust)

    She's a little rusty but I'm from Maryland so everything I have is rusty. Most of that I would wire wheel/brush and then soak it down with Fluid Film twice a year and then drive the crap out of it and fix things as they break. Rust is a tough topic around here. Anyone from the south will tell...
