    Headlight level/height adjustment

    alight just making sure because my car was in a fender bender early on in its life when a pick up truck decided to slide on ice right into the left head lamp of my car, so just making sure that it was all adjusted right. What do you think abt the High beams tho, are they slightly too high?

    Headlight level/height adjustment

    yup, do you think I should lower my high beam light or is this normal.

    Headlight level/height adjustment

    Ok this makes a lot more sense. My left low beam has always beam a bit lower than my right low beam. I also think my high beams are Amed too high. I’ll let you guys be the judge of that because maybe this is normal. I have a 2010 HSE LUX with the Bi-Xenon lights

    2011 V8 Exhaust

    no I had a shop do it. I had them weld bigger pipes and then slip them over the cut exhaust pipe and then weld them so if I ever wanted to stick the muffler back on I could easily.

    2011 V8 Exhaust

    I took the center resonator off my truck aswell. I will say that I’ve gotten very used to it and there is a little vibration through the cabin but the sound this car makes is amazing. When your on the gas it puts a smile on your face but it’s not loud enough to turn peoples heads. Pops and bangs...

    Pulls hard right on acelleration

    Funny story, just got my tires rotated today and I can say that I did have an issue with the steering wheel pulling to the right when I let go even after the alignment had been done and I am not having that issue anymore... however if you jump the throttle the car will still pull to the right...

    Normal or chain noise?

    The injectors are very noisy on these cars. I’m not too worried abt my chain as of now, I only have 120k on the car. As of now the only things I have on my mind for the future are spark plugs, (been due since 105,000) and a future decarb.

    Pulls hard right on acelleration

    Wow. I’m shocked, yours is much worse then my issue. Mine just pulls right when accelerating and it also pulls right when I let go of the steering wheel on the highway. Alignment and everything is spot on. Here the link to the video of my issue.

    Tried it with traction control off, still pulls.

    Pulls hard right on acelleration

    Mine has had this issue for a while now, and it’s actually causing my right front tire to wear more then my left front. All the alignment is spot on and everything. I had an independent shop look at all the suspension and everything and they said it looks perfect and super clean and brand new...

    Normal or chain noise?

    Mine sounds basically the same, I have 120k and sometimes I get paranoid. I think we just gotta ignore it and keep on pushing, car runs like it’s brand new otherwise.

    Ton of faults after an aftermarket subwoofer was installed (SOLVED)

    SOLVED Been tracking down every little place they linked wiring and ended up under the dash and found this one little lose wire came out of place. Thanks for all the suggestions

    Ton of faults after an aftermarket subwoofer was installed (SOLVED)

    the sub is self amplified and routed into the original sound system. Bigger issue is that now even with the sub completely disconnected from the battery it still throws these faults after clearing.

    Ton of faults after an aftermarket subwoofer was installed (SOLVED)

    I did this and they came right back on as soon as I went over 45. The only aftermarket items connected to the battery are the subwoofer and a light bar. Assuming that the instal shop didn’t already do it, I’m thinking that I need to add a power block between the battery and the sub so it doesn’t...

    Ton of faults after an aftermarket subwoofer was installed (SOLVED)

    Well had a subwoofer put in and got the car back early this afternoon and everything was great, until I got on the freeway. After going over 45 mph the every light on the dash came on (stability control, ABS, parking brake, cruise control, suspension, transmission etc.) I’m not too familiar with...

    5.0 supercharged into an LR4?

    Wow I’m actually surprised about them plugging two cylinders. They basically made a less powerful Engine that weighs basically the same. I always thought it was a myth that the block was the same with two cylinders plugged. (Similar to the myth of the 5.0L AJV8 is the same Ford 5.0L V8, it’s...

    Steering issue (is this normal?)

    I have a gap tool, would I be getting faults if it was a wheel speed sensor? How can I diagnose a wheel speed sensor? Also you think that is is more likely to be the cv joints and axle rather then the actual front differential right?
  22. Jimmy Brooks

    Steering issue (is this normal?)

    Also, could this be front differential related? Really don’t want to take a bite on a new front differential.

    Steering issue (is this normal?)

    I jacked the car up a couple of weeks ago to check for a wheel bearing issue and I did spin the wheel and there’s some play before the wheel catches and won’t spin because all the others are on the ground. However, I think the CV axle is a really good bet just because of the way the car pulls to...

    Steering issue (is this normal?)

    Crap... didn’t think about the CV joints. How would I check if one went bad?

    Steering issue (is this normal?)

    I posted a form about this a couple of months ago but no one really had any idea about what I was talking about so I have come back with a video. Is this normal under hard acceleration? You can see in the video that the steering wheel pulls hard to the right and then goes straight then...
