    DIY: Replacing heater hose pipe T's *important*

    Just did this job over the weekend. For the record, two of the hoses I needed for my ’04 were different than listed further up in this thread (which I assume were for a ’98 – ’02). According to the dealer, based on my VIN, I needed these: T-fittings 2 x 87248-60460 Hoses 87245-6A180...

    '04 Mystery Noise

    The only problem is that to troubleshoot, the car has to be in gear. That means I have to have complete trust in my wife's ability to keep her foot on the brake and not think about my life insurance policy...

    '04 Mystery Noise

    That's what I'm most afraid of. Wouldn't the manifold make noise even in P or N?

    '04 Mystery Noise

    Sounds like I have a busy weekend ahead. I might need to ignore this for another week!

    '04 Mystery Noise

    Great suggestions. Is there a way to check them? Could I tell anything visually?

    '04 Mystery Noise

    Apologies - I'm usually annoyed by posts about noises (how helpful can you be without hearing it?) but here I am doing it. I would make a video but I'm away from the car. Anyway, my '04 with 126k has developed a sound in cold weather. The colder the louder. Before the car warms up, when...

    Great Windshield Experience in Atlanta

    I wanted to post this in case anyone is searching for a windshield shop in the Atlanta area. I just had mine replaced at Atlanta Glass Services (http://www.atlantaglassservices.com/) in Marietta. They were recommended by the body shop at Nalley Lexus and have done lots of 100 windshields...

    Too much rust?

    I looked at that one. There is something weird about the history - looks like it has been in various dealer inventories for over a year. At least they've finally fixed the bumper cover.

    Rear spoiler removal - potential issues w/ holes left unplugged?

    I don't have the instructions anymore, but it was very simple - drill the hole, put in the nutcert, bolt on the mounts, and attach the wing. I realize that is of little value. The reason I posted is to share that there is an "installation kit" that is a separate part number. I don't think...

    Program key, but... No blinking red light?

    Weird. It does go out if it recognizes a transponder. Be sure that the key you're trying to program isn't on a key chain with an already programmed key. Really, the light is just an affirmation - you could go through the steps and see if it works. Let's say that the bulb is just burned out...

    Program key, but... No blinking red light?

    Look on the dash near the clock. Not on the key.

    2004 Trailer Wiring P/N Question (and skid plate too)

    All set. The trailer hitch wiring harness was 82177-60010. The oil filter cover (seal, engine under) was 51456-60060. Both were quick simple installations. No more broken or missing parts for now!

    2004 Trailer Wiring P/N Question (and skid plate too)

    Guys, The place where you insert a 7-pin connector on the factory towing set-up on my '04 has lost the little plastic cover and some of the pins have corroded/broken off so it no longer functions. I stopped by the dealer last weekend and they couldn't find the part number for this part of the...

    Trying to find OEM rear DVD player

    I researched the system a bit when I was trying to find a replacement knob for the rear seat volume control (gave up on that). Anyway, as I recall the system components are Pioneer. You might luck out and find a manufacturers part number on the DVD player if you pull it out. Otherwise maybe...

    Water Leak; Sunroof / Windshield?

    Can't help with pics of the drain exits, but I had the same problem and suspect cleaning the drains from the bottom up won't help. Here's what I did: 1. Get in the car and slide the sunshade back. You'll be looking at the underside of the sunroof glass panel. 2. There are black plastic trim...

    ABS and Rear Diff Lock Lights

    ABS light is off. It still could think it is in low range though. Test leads are a great suggestion. I'll see what I can manage. Famous last words: how much worse could I make it? I may just have to park it until I have either more time to investigate or more funds for quality time at...

    ABS and Rear Diff Lock Lights

    But wait, there's more. Dealer repairs the wiring harness. Rear diff is not locked. ABS light is not illuminated. All good? Nope. Within 10 feet of driving when I picked it up, I noticed that the center diff is locked - light is illuminated in dash and tires squeal when turning on...

    ABS and Rear Diff Lock Lights

    Interesting finding. An exhaust leak at the muffler (previously unknown by me) was pointed right at the wiring harness. The harness is good and melted causing screwed up functions. I would have never thought of this. Keep in mind when you're chasing mystery gremlins. Seems to be a good...

    ABS and Rear Diff Lock Lights

    Cranked up to head to the dealer this morning. Rear diff is now locked. Switch is off. Great. 20 careful miles of paved road later, I'm waiting on diagnosis. Fingers crossed for a malfunctioning switch or relay and not something more expensive...
