[ronsin1]

so low and behold the power locks start to work by itself this morning

no adjustments made to it at all

[CS3A_GLX]

^^ yeah my back right door mirror wasn't going down also. i jus waited and BAM, it start to work again. i figure is time for d old WD40 greasing down again!!!

[EVA Unit-01]

Dex wuz good yest, had REAL fun on my runs (doh mind i miss a few gates the 1st times ). wuz lookin out 4 TURBOT, but eh show...

went by DM 4 6am, did a full inspection of thecar & everything's perfectly fine. put back in 2 brake clips that were missing (still have the rest from the pack if anyone wants, $10 for 1 ), checked to make sure all the rubbers and mounts were good (Mitsu tech ftw!), and adjusted handbrakes. leaft @ 7:15am

funny thing though, turbo... i checked the pads and rotors when they were replacing the clips to see what could be making the whirring noise. there was nothing the rotor grooves were clean & the HPS doesnt even have a groove, so i have no idea how to stop the noise. anyone else with slotted rotors experience this?

[idlemind]

YES! but i keep telling you its normal because of the grooves but you hard ears.

If you free today I can pass by round 1 and we go for a spin

[CS3A_GLX]

^NOPE. i have slotted and crossdrilled (SP Performance)and experience none of the sort. Hey check ur bearings as that is the 1st point of all whirring noises, then there's the tyres. Carry the rotors to have the surfaced inspected or remachined if need be.

and yeah, cud be the unusual comfort of the new grooves!

[EVA Unit-01]

idle, i in the Couva office today... maybe tomorrow

CS3A, i highly doubt it's the bearing, everything checked out fine at DM. the rims and rotors are actually lighter than OEM, so i don't see it causing the problem.

[idlemind]

cool 2moro maybe the same time, il confirm

[S.A]

need help please. CS3a missfiring bad

[idlemind]

check your coil packs and plugs

[S.A]

car cut off while idlin. start bac and began to missfire check light is also on now. plug wires look good.

[idlemind]

not plug wires,

get to the plugs and see if theres any oil in it....where the 4G18 ppl
also check your coil packs...you supposed to have 2 right?

[CS3A_GLX]

hmmm check/clean ur sparkplugs, injectors and service ur tb and u go save yuhself de runaround!

[turbo_beast369]

if d check light coming on then some sensor either gone/fouling up or d jack loose and not makin proper contact....your problem is electrical....leave throttle body alone...

after checking the plugs and chamber for oil and loose/broken connections, injector electrical jacks and the problem still exists then run a engine diagnostic, it will definitely show you the trouble code...

[idlemind]

could also be a vacuum leak

[turbo_beast369]

yeah but if that was d case, then the engine check light wont come on....

[CS3A_GLX]

fellaz, it that scarce to find a 4g93t GSR Engine n Tranny? If so, whats the asking price for it?

[idlemind]

huh...that lazy engine and tranny...yuh go be lucky if yuh get $3k

[CS3A_GLX]

eh heh? Men trying to locate a EFI engine over all dem GDI bizness. and 4g18 abit harder to find.

[ronsin1]

yeah but if that was d case, then the engine check light wont come on....

if there is a vacuum leak the check light will come on and if the can is scanned it will show improper fuel ratio

[turbo_beast369]

^^^I stand corrected...

the worst is when a problem arises and u don't have the engine check light to help u out...u does hadda go thru d process of elimination which is sometimes rel headache....

[S.A]

Tanx for all d suggestions guys. I’ll try those and provide feedback. And @ idle mind yea is 4 plug wires and a distributor. 4g18 CS3A – d cedia lookin one

[turbo_beast369]

?????

u sure its a 4G18? because as far as I know the 4G18 carries 2 coil packs, each feeding 2 plugs wires...and it doesnt have a distributor....take a pic and show us the engine

[CS3A_GLX]

fellaz, 1 more dotish question... on a 4g93T GSR engine, what AUTO/TIPTRONIC gearbox will work? VRG, FTO, CK, Mivec, 4g92 auto tranny? i wants no Manual vehicle!!!

[turbo_beast369]

u go be wasting rel power if using a tranny...a gearbox unleashes the beast in engines....also..if u want to increase boost and modify, make sure and beef up the tranny b4 u install it...or else it will slip...

[elephant intl]

car cut off while idlin. start bac and began to missfire check light is also on now. plug wires look good.

if u have to get coil packs i have 2 for the 4g18 denso brand that came with my car i jus changed them to avoid problems like this offer me a price..a brand new set from the firm is like $3000
