    Burning smell when initially turning on ac

    The dealer replaced the Serpentine belt due to wear and their was a leak in the AC condenser, both were replaced by dealer at the same time. I believe it was the AC condenser because when I took it in the AC was blowing hot air. Anyone experiencing this issue most likely it is a sign the...

    Difference between these parts

    I went to the dealer to have the A/C checked, since the driver side was blowing hot air and passenger side was nice and cool. They looked for leaks and noticed that the drier is leaking and ordered the condenser drier assembly (88460-AZ016). Looking at the parts catalog should the part be...

    AC Condenser Replacement

    I just went to the dealer to diagnose the issue of hot air on driver side and cold air on passenger side. They stated that there​ is a leak in the condenser and needs to be replaced. They quoted me $900 to replace this but comparing it to your quote from the dealer and the price of the...

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    So I just installed the front and transmission skid plate (kind of) the two holes that connect the front and transmission skid plates together seem to be cross threaded and I tightened it as much as I could. But the plates and bolts still have some slack so I will try to see how to fix this...

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    Did you torque them down to the oem specs or until you felt it was tight enough? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    I plan to install these skid plates on Saturday. Do you recommend using thread locker so that the bolts don't become loose? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    Thank you for the replies. I will go to Lowe's today and look for a 3M rust remover wheel and fluid film. I have also modified my order to include powder coating just to be safe on rust prevention. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    That is one reason I wanted to go with the aluminum because it will not rust. Since I will be applying Fluid Film to current rust spots it wouldn't be to hard to add it to the steel skids before installing. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    Thx. Next weekend I will try the wire brush first and if it does not help as much then move to the drill brush. I just purchased the RCI steel bare metal full skid package but now having second thoughts of not going with aluminum. Any one currently own the steel version? Sent from my Nexus 6P...

    Rust and RCI skid plates

    The front bar under the radiator is very rusted and wanted to know of some ideas to stop the rust from getting worse and maybe even make it look nicer if possible. I also want to replace the current skid plate with the RCI skid plate and maybe even get the transmission and transfer case plates...

    Are bigger brakes really worth it?

    Sorry totally misread your post. As CXS stated mostly people do it because the current calipers have issues of seizing. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

    Larger brakes don't provide better braking just better heat dissipation to reduce warped rotors. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
