I have an 03 and an 05. The 03 gets 20-21mpg running Mibile 1 and a K&N panel filter. The 05 is running a blend oil right now willbe switching to Mobile 1 next change and putting a K&N in then as well. The 05 gets 17-18mpg. Those are my specs.

My wife has a '05 with 33000 miles and has had he same problem. The dealer will be reaplacing the front sway bar end links next week. They said that they were real dry and cracking. So I would agree with the others and check that next.

Well.....it has been some time since I was thinking about this project. I have since used some of the spray on rubber on my running boards and I had thouoght that it would be a much more strong and perminent surface. This stuff comes of way to easy. So for my road rash project I think I will be...

Monmix thanks for your help. I am going to give it a try this weekend.

Thanks for the responses but I do have a questions for Monmix..?? Since it on the underside I think that using the undercoating would work best. It will not be viewable unless you get down on your hands and knees. So I was correct in assuming that if I sand down the metal to remove the start of...

I could use some advise on this one guys. The dealer calls it road rash...and the paint behind the all four wheels is chipping away with the sand on the roads from winter. Well most are small and have not gone through the grey undercoat but some have gone all the way to metal and are showing the...

Under the gas tank that does not seem safe at all!!?? I guess I will just have to get another jack and do both sides at the same time. Thanks for the replys and if anyone has another idea let me know. Thanks!

Well so what you are saying is that I have to have two jacks and four jack stands to make this work. Can't just jack one side then the other it would be off balance. There is not point in the middle in the back from where to jack it up?? :fire:

I have a question. I want to be able to get my X (03) up on jack stands so that I can do some work (ie. rotate tires etc.) I can use my jack on the front cross bar to get the front up to get the jack stands under the frame but I am not sure where to jack the rear to get the stands under the...

If I can avoid it I would rather not drill through. I just am having trouble finding a open gromet. Does anyone with a 2nd gen. have any other thoughts or pictures?? Thanks!

Well I just went back out and looked for the empty gromet next to the break peddle and I can not find one. Does anyone have a picture of this gromet and its location?? Maybe they changed the design in the 03's over the 02's. The only gromet next to the break peddle is were the stearing column...

Guys, I have been doing a lot of searches but can not find the answer....where should I run the power cable for my amp throught the fire wall?? If anyone had a picture that would be great!! I was looking at it last night and th0ought that I could take it through a empty gromet in the front door...

Thanks for the response!! I did find that amp and noticed that effect. I was wanting to get the Alpine MRV-F450 and it did not say anything about that at Crutchfields so I went to the Alpine site and looked at the owners manual for that model and it does the same thing. GREAT!! I will still have...

Ok...Well after tons of research and reading I had decided to get a 5 channel amp. But I now realize that my head unit only has two pre-amp outputs. I could use some help thinking this one out. If I only have two that mean that I could split one pair with two y-connectors for the speakers and...

So it is not possible to do as the local audio shop has suggested by wiring in parallel to two channels and then bridging the 3rd and 4th channels for the sub. In theory it sounds good but I thought that the guy was a little crazy. I think that I will get a 4 channel amp for the speakers for now...

Thanks for the reply. I thought about the 5channel amps but I have heard that they are full of distortion. I do not remember what type or the reason why but i was hearing this on the SoundDomain Forums and on another site. This is why I am looking for a good four channel. A local dealer told me...

Anyone...does anyone have a thought on this issue??

Ok..I have slowly but surely been building my system. Right now I have a Clarion Pro-Audio CD deck(17wattsx4) and I just installed some Boston Acoustic FX-8's all around. It is time to add an amp for the speakers and a sub. Now I do not want to blow the doors off. I just want good clean sound. I...

Wow...what a great response!!! Just what I was looking for......but....I have one question. Is this epoxy strong enough to hold the attached power source wire. The grid is ok it just that the element popped off from the grid. I am assuming that this would hold the wiring but just wanted to make...

I am looking for a way to reattach the electrical contact to the rear window defrost. It just popped of the other day and the dealer said that there is no way to reattach it. They said that you would have to replace the window. I think that I have heard that there is a special glue that will...

Thanks for all of the replies. I must ask jus tone more question...for now! Is there any other regular lubrication that I should be doing every 3-5,000 miles? My wifes Jimmy needs to have some components in here wheel assebmly lubbed regularly. Anything like that on the X. Thanks again for all...

Thanks for the fast reply. Do you think that I really need the jack stands or is there going to be enough room for me without them to get under the X? Is it worth getting a oil pan drain plug that can be hooked up to a hose for easier draining or are they unreliable?? Alo ...should I warm up...

Guys... Can you lend a hand to a newbie. I am thinking about changing my own oil for the first time. I have been reading past posts and it seems to be real easy. Can you give me a step by step process so that I do not mess anything up? I was thinking of switching to Syn. as it only has 23,000...

Well, I listen to all types of music. I do not want to have to have a sub in right now but it is possible in the future that I would want to add one. I would however like to have a good bass response from the speakers. I will be upgrading to a new head unit as well but I am confident that I...

Gentlemen, I am in the market for new speakres for my doors and I was wondering which copany has the better products?? Alpine, Pioneer, Infinity or Polk?? What do you guys suggest? Thanks in advance!
