After closely monitoring and documenting the temps, I think a pattern has emerged and hot temps will zap my backup camera. But it's crazy, as even like 80° will kill it. Anyone else have weather problems on their camera? Any better camera I can buy to replace the Sony/Teyes supplied camera?

I never hooked up the radio on mine. I just stream all my music, so I'm not sure which harness. But I do recall seeing an ANT labeled harness with a coax port, but it's been awhile since I've installed mine.

Just wanted to update. Grabbed all the parts but went ahead and had the dealership install. It runs so much better. Throttle response, idle, acceleration. I replaced the valve cover gaskets, plug tube seals, coil packs, plugs, and PCV valve. I'm glad I did, as a lot of the plugs were kinda...

I got the camera + 6.8m harness, but I would recommend going with the camera + 10m harness though. I had to end up ordering the longer one (10m), as the 6.8m wasnt able to reach the head unit after the cable routing.

Funny you say that, when it first started happening I thought the same thing. Cooler in the morning and hot in the day. But after tracking it for awhile, no temperature pattern emerged. But I can keep tracking it to rule that out for sure. Like look at the exact temp and see if there is a range...

Awesome! I agree, tucks pretty nice. Been trying to find photos with the skid and stock bumper, and that 100% sealed the deal. Thanks for the photo! Looks good!

Copy that. Thanks for the info! I'm not super concerned, just don't wont it to be a significant decrease in clearance. I saw a photo that had a weird angle and made it look as if the drop was pretty low. I think I'm gonna pull trigger. The reviews seem great and I'm not gonna be doing any wicked...

Thanks for the reply! I used the Sony camera that came with the Teyes CC3 as well as their supplied cable. It will sometimes trigger the full screen view with the backing guides, and then sometimes it won't even trigger at all. I was thinking bad/loose connection, but there is a pattern of it...

About to pull the trigger on a front skid plate. How's the ground clearance? Is it tucked pretty tight or similar to the stock plate?

Got an interesting problem and wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue and if they figured out a solution. My android headunit (teyes cc3) works fine and all the controls, but the reverse camera only intermittently works. Usually when I head out for the morning, the camera will be on...

Thanks for the FSM post. I'll give this a try when I open it back up this weekend. I'll let you know the results. Good idea, leveeguy. I'll order the PCV valve and get that knocked out while I'm doing the VCG. Thanks for the heads up.

Copy that, Mike NXP. I'll research tutorials and probably spray the bolts a day or so before the install to let them soak.

Thanks for all the help, everyone. This forum is awesome. Just wish I knew more so I could help others when they have issues. But just got in from finishing up. I ended up replacing two coils (boots were brittle and cracked) and 4 plugs. All the plugs were pretty rough. The other two coils were...

Would a malfunctioning idle-up control valve cause a small leak in the power steering pump? The pump shows signs of a leak/weep. And how would I diagnose a bad idle-up control valve? Drive around without the hoses attached? I guess what I will do for now is put a new coil and plug in the...

Sweet! How sensitive are these coil packs? If I run a new coil with bad valve cover gaskets, would it be damaged (or shortened lifespan) by the time I get the valve cover and spark plug tube gaskets delivered in the mail? Thanks for the help.
