idlemind, you have one of your drive wheel off the ground and then you took this pic or what ?

160 km/hr at under 4000 rpm ?

[idlemind]

Isnt that normal for the CVT?

I mean for regular driving in D mode??

Interesting coz I recorded a tiptronic and a Ds run but never a regular D run

Hmm when next theres a clear late night run, il see what i can do.

And for all the naysayers...the phone was taped to the steering wheel on those occasions.

Not suggesting you do like me but theres a time and a place for everything

[idlemind]

rpms peaked for the tiptronic run...naturally

But in the Ds run the rpms dropped by over 2000 when i switched over to D at 0:39 in the second vid.

Ds is a little kicker though...saw the jump from standstill?

And this wasnt any peeling eh...not that we can peel anyway, just X tuh board

[ZeroOne]

Venum doh forget me on the instrument panel wire. I want to know what that thin white wire connects to.

[noshownogo]

whats the price of an ICV? Is it the entire motor that needs replacing?

[idlemind]

Yea it usually is

Get your part number and give the new DM contact a try

Other than that venum recently changed his so he can fill you in on price and location

in my Ds, rpm usually stays @ 3000 without pressin gas. wen floored, d rpm's kicked all d way up 2 6000!!! notice urs didn't go all d way 2 6000...

and yes, Ds is a lot kickier dan normal D. in D, however, i usually hit 140kmph @ 4000 rpm (takes a lil while, tho...). flat out, it stays at 6000 rpm, droppin 2 5500 if u ease up on d pedal a little

[idlemind]

Yea boy enjoy it while it last...the car young.

I'll get that depending on which gas station I full up at and when the k&n clean

[Shooter_boy_J]

Talking abt gas stations which ones allyuh dont reccommend going to in the central area! Cause i go the cause to kick up them gas station ppl if i have to clean my injectors to early!

[idlemind]

Always put in new stations or stations with high turnover.

The station with the highest turnover is Curepe by KayDonna so you kno you getting the highest octane level.

Other Stations I full up at are
Dinsley,
Richmond St (new),
Aranguez (new),
Wrightson (new),
Tragarite (new),
If fackin emergency...Beetham (new)

If you kno whats good for your car, dont put in any old station
Those stations are privately owned and they are NOT mandated under NP to ensure that their pump are in proper working order.

[Shooter_boy_J]

Chase Village is one of the worst jed!

[turbo_beast369]

ANYONE KNOWS ANY PARTS PLACE THAT BRINGS PARTS (USED) FROM SINGAPORE????

[EVA Unit-01]

Shooter_boy_J, check the gas station in California, south of the Pt Lisas roundabout (it does have REAL ppl dey evey evening) or d UNIPET on Union Road, Marabella. daz d only 2 places i fill up at... oh, & CORRECTION!

Gasparillo Quick Shop is one of the worst jed!

[A.W.O.L]

That gas station is the safest in trinidad...last i went there about after 9pm i counted 5 heavily armed security guards in bullet proof vest too...so it's fairly safe to go there..

[nes123]

I does always say prevention better dan cure yes...suppose 2/5 of dem is bandit?not facking me..I running till I on fumes yes

[idlemind]

ent....them bandit always packing more than the forces

but i must admit, they have the best service

[EVA Unit-01]

but i must admit, they have the best service

tryin 2 build their customer base

i jes suggest once dat i stoppin dey, d passengers was willing 2 push d car 2 d gas station by Barataria roundabout

[idlemind]

When a couple armed big dudes direct you to which pump to go to and stops and queue all the other cars while looking at the occupants in the cars....yea il say i can give them the thumbs up.

[venum]

I'll check that IP thing this weekend

Kinda busy these days

Price I paid by DM for the Idle Control Motor was TT$4400.00 VAT incl.

That was in November 2009

[Shooter_boy_J]

venum, if you did check me you wudda get it for a bestttttt price!

[venum]

Shooter_boy_J didn't know you then

at least you were not marketing your price reduction services ta that time

doesn't matter as the CS3 that it was bought for (Blondie) is company maintained and full re-imbursements are provided

Should I need one for the CS3 that is maintained out of my pocket (Silver), I'll without the hesitation of a doubt drop-dead-sure be making good of your enticing offer

[A.W.O.L]

ANYONE KNOWS ANY PARTS PLACE THAT BRINGS PARTS (USED) FROM SINGAPORE????

venum, mite give u a call 2 check u wit it, if dey can't find a problem...

No scene

I in work after lunch though

But you from south so if I cant sort you out today, during the week I'll sort you out

[venum]

tyres sold

[EVA Unit-01]

SO! anti-climatic solution to the mind-racking problem:

the tyres were under-pressured

even though i check my tyre pressures twice a week at the pump in the gas station (Gasparillo again, nah! ) and verifying it to be 28psi, the pressure was low.

apparently those pumps don't read tyre pressures properly, so i got a manual gauge to check it at LdG (whopping TT$12 to save me this fcuking stress!)

this was verified by venum (much thanks for the assist!) and turbo_beast369, after the pressure issue was rectified...

unfortunately, they also confirmed that the rotors are slightly warped, so i'm on the hunt for parts yet again

[ZeroOne]

You check pressure twice a week and that was the problem?????

You ought to be ashamed of yuhself

I use nitro and check tyres every 2-3 weeks.

Thanks for letting us know though so in the future we'll know what can cause such a problem.

Venum i ent forget yuh with the pics eh. I may take them tommorrow.

Tone does do real good work, but a bit pricey!
