Good to know about the oil pressure before I go tearing stuff apart. Resistance may have been the wrong word maybe correcting? It feels like lane keep assist on newer vehicles. Doesn’t happen all the time maybe a handful of times now. On any used vehicle I get I usually do 99 percent of the work...

Took the first road trip today since getting the LX last weekend. Went about 150 miles and noticed some things and wondering if normal: noticed the oil pressure runs low. It didn’t go above the quarter mark much even when hammering it, do they just normally run lower? Also when letting off the...

There is a little bit of wear on the seat edges and door handles but no rips or tears. Looking for rubber floor mats that go under the seats and are form fitted

Thanks I plan on having it woolwaxed or fluid filmed in the next week or two.

I bought my first 2009 lx over the weekend. Spent the past two days going over it and getting it inspected and everything is great and clean on it. Went over the whole interior and made sure everything worked. When I tested it the 4Lo didn’t engage but managed to get it to activate randomly...

Will do all that on the fluids. The 4lo on the dash just flashes won’t stay solid.

Yea I plan on giving it a thorough look over when I get it on my buddy’s lift. I checked it out pretty good and didn’t see any hints of the valley plate leak, just a cam tower leak.

I was thinking about fluid film for now and revisit my best options in the spring. I’ve done that on previous vehicles and trailers and it worked great.

I’m up in CNY so undercoating is probably my first stop. I checked it out a couple of times already and the heat/ac all work as does all electronics. The AHC works and has new tires so I might hold off on rims and tires until spring.

I pick the LX I bought this Saturday and am wondering the first few things I need to do to make sure it will last as long as possible. I was thinking about some kind of under coating and paint correction/coating. It has a cam tower leak like so many but it is just seeping and not a leak so will...

Thank you for the info exactly what I was looking for. I’m still looking for rims, want a nice dark bronze color but not coming up with much for the lug pattern

Looking at ordering some rims and tires for the 2009 LX I’m picking up on Saturday and wondering a couple of things. If I do the upgraded brakes from newer years does that limit the size rim I can fit? I’m looking at 17s right now. Also I see some have had to cut inner fenders for possibly a...

I’m sure I can find some decent headlights for less than $17k for it. Don’t care about trim don’t know of other differences.
