lol.. dirty! you should see the bug splatter on my white paint!!
You'd think I drove down a school bus full of small childern.

Even after the car wash the 750km drive wins.

 

Guys, I have a little problem. My power steering gave out today for the third time. This time its also making weird noises. Its the third time within the last 3-4k miles. I am taking it to the dealer first thing in the morning since its pretty much undriveable. If I dont get it back at the end of the day unfortunately I will have to back out out of the dyno. However since I am backing out at the last minute and there is no replacements I would like to pay what I am due. I could paypal someone the money so they can bring it with them to the dyno, tdiddy let me know what I should do. Sorry for the trouble guys

 

Let me just say HAVE FUN! Enjoy your Dyno Day and for those getting AP's,, Heaven awaits.

 

why are the ones getting a tune with the ap charged an extra $100 bucks? I thought the tune was free if you had purchased the ap from MM and if you didn't have the ap then the tune was an extra $$?

 

Checked in my flight and packed my bags.
I'll see you all soon.
T - Ray and I are heading out your way Friday afternoon, so I'll see you then.

 

Bring it out. We can fix it for you in 20 minutes.

 

The tunes I send you are "free".
A dyno tune is normally $300.
For this event, I wanted to come out for a lot less just to get to meet up with people.
I only needed my costs to be covered.
You didn't expect me to fly all the way to Chicago on my own dime, did you?

 

No, I don't expect anyone to do this for free. It was just the impression I got from the original post. $150 is still a lot cheaper than anything I can find locally, much less even just dyno time. I'm still in for this. Hell I'm blowing nearly $200 on gas just for the trip! Whats an extra $150???

And I worked it out where my friend and I can be there before 9 am with a lot more sleep. So no worries about the sharpie shaming if I ever feel asleep!

P.S. MM, you had mentioned before that if I picked up the ap in chicago you'd kick back $15 on the shipping charge since its hand delivered. That offer still good? That coming back via your checkout program or in person on sat?

 

It will be coming back through Google once I hand you the unit.

 

Ray is charging more to deliver me!

 

I've been known to ride in the trunk.
You need a trunk-monkey.

 

If you can't get it fixed or don't want to bring it out, don't worry about it. I am not going to make you pay for a service you didn't receive just because you had a mechanical malfunction. Anyway, we may have a backup to replace you.

Great! I can't wait!

Yes, the extra cost for the people wanting a tune is to cover the BHR team's travel expenses. Believe me, its a great deal.

 

Any idea what it might be? **** if you can fix it I'll be there!!

 

There are a couple of electrical connectors below the tray that holds the air filter box. Have you tried making sure those are seated correctly?

 

Your PS torque sensor harness is FUBAR. 99% certain.
Just takes 10 minutes with a soldering iron to fix it.
The "hard" part is removing your air box.

My flight to Chicago is delayed because of all the wind you are having there in Chicago. I' just sitting here in Phoenix. Waiting.

 

^^^ hope you get off the ground soon.
It's sunny right now but they are calling for storms later

 

Anyone else notice that when they post to this thread your post count doesn't go up?

 

Post counts don't increase in the Regional threads. Also in the Lounge or the Classifieds.

 

^^^ They do in the Canadian section...mmmm sshhhhhhh

 

Winds are about 20 mph from the North. I wouldn't think that would cause a problem. An excuse? What airline?
I will bring a soldering iron.

 

No wonder StealthTL's numbers are so big.

 

LOL I fly out of ORD a lot, and if you fart to fast they will close the airport down

 

Yeah go try it... pic any post, I select Install Meet Part 2 . Create a test post ...
post it.
Look at your count
Then go back and delete your post.

I hope I'm not seeing things

 

I belive thats what the dealership did the last time. They mentioned re-soldering something, and something to do with the connectors (harness??) as well. Could it have gone bad again? The first time they replaced some power steering module Let me know, planning to drop it off during lunch but in that case I'll hold off

 

If your drive is not to bad try holding off till Monday. Maybe the crew can fix it tomorrow.
