Does anybody know what the box under a '00 zx2 driver seat is?
Do they all have a tach? I do.
your message confirmed that it will not squeak anymore.
It has been raining heavily for the last week in Chicago. I have been smelling moisture in the car recently, but I thought it was just the rain outside. Today I noticed the rear seat is getting wet by the rain water seeping from the trunk. I checked the trunk and there is some rain water collected in the right hand side of the trunk, where the tire jack sits.
I looked around in the trunk. But I could not figure out how the water is coming in. My brother told me it could be the water that is splashed by the tire from the road.
Should I just drill a hole at the bottom to let the water out? Or is there any other solution?
Thanks.
Very often a trunk leak comes from the gasket around the tail light lenses. If that's where your leak is, you can pull out the tail light assembly and smear some LATEX BLACK caulk (go to a hardware store) around the gasket. It's a lot easier than messing with silicone, because latex caulk cleans up with plain water (until it dries).
If the leak is in the trunk lid, you'll have to get a new trunk seal and glue it in with 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive.
It seems that the water is in the trunk lid. I will work on it this weekend.
That was two years ago and now it has 120K miles. The car always seemed to have problems accelerating once it gets into 2nd gear. In 1st it is awesome and 3rd gear and up it is fast and smooth. But once it hits 2nd, it seems something is wrong. It could be at a dead stop, I would floor it: at the start I can keep up with any V6 or V8 car that wishes to race me, but as soon as it shifts to 2nd gear it seems to not accelerate much and over the past year, I have noticed a strange "gargling noise" as if it is not getting enough power, or fuel, or something. I replaced the fuel-filter and I keep all the fluids clear.
I wasn't too worried, but I want to upgrade to a cold-air intake and I don't want to damage something by putting way more air than it can handle.
PLEASE HELP!!! I'll accept any advise with appreciation. :confuse:
Any Advice is Helpful!! thx
Replacing the exhaust headers with performance ones will help greatly also, and the cheapest I've found(and I am also currently looking for some) run about $140-$160 on e-bay, and that includes shipping. If you can afford it, I would go ahead and replace the entire exhaust system.
WHAT IS WRONG?? Is my car trying to tell me something? Please help me.
I make 31 mile on galon and I don't know if the light is real massage or it is wrong massage.
Somebody can help me?
PLEASE.
:confuse:
And how much performance increase can you expect with new headers?
As far as headers, I haven't gotten any yet, but considering that my stock ones are maybe 1 1/2" and go from 4 pipes to 1 in 4" of coming out of the block and new performance ones on e-bay are 2 to 2 1/2" and are 4-2-1 over 3-4 feet(not to mention replacing the very restricting catalytic converter).......they are well worth $150.
P.S: Trust e-bay because most of the stores have a guarantee and Pay-pal guarantees their guarantees.
Header also help a lot b/c they replace the very restrictive stock headers and catalytic converter with at least an inch wider, smoother, cooler looking pipe. Probably anywhere from 10 to 15 hp increase I'd say.
In Chilton's it looks like you have to remove the hub, knuckle and bearing assy. then press out the hub before accessing the bearing.
