Issue on my end was that they snapped the ride height sensor arm and the sensor was dangling. This will throw chassis errors and stop you from entering dyno mode. Make sure they are very careful when mounting the read part of the car to the dyno.
We got lucky the second day and the dangling...
Tried looking around for what I am running into but could not find anything.
Yesterday I got my car on a dyno but every time I tried to enter dyno mode 10-15 errors would pop up (chassis stabilization, driver assist, axle lock, ect). This would stop me from entering dyno mode and make the car...
Got some all season tires and an alignment, noise is gone for now. Seems to be the same cycle each time: take off wheels, put wheels on, no noise for a while.
Maybe this is similar to the “rock in brake dust guard” issue. But I don’t see anything fall out when taking off the wheel… looking into...
While working on the last post I also got some sound improvement in. I followed @tadda guide on sound improvement for this. I still need to isolate a few of my own vibrations that remain, but wow did this make a huge difference in sound quality! Really appreciate the great guide.
I was pretty...
Got some new Verus parts in the car this weekend! Just small touches for now.
I got their diff and turbo heat shields just to throw on. The resonator delete which did improve intake sound slightly and lets me see the new turbo heat shield. The master cylinder brace for some extra support there...
100% stock when I first heard this issue. Absolutely no work had been done on the vehicle. I went to a couple dealerships but during COVID they would not do a ride along and, honestly, I doubt they are capable of helping.
This is only the front wheels for me. Only in turns and only in the...
originally had the issue with the car completely stock. Still have the issue with full SPL suspension links and Cusco sway/power/strut bars, the rest is still stock.
Mine is worse than ever but has no effect on driving, it is only noise. It is only front wheels and only in a turn with weight on it (from cornering).
It’s nice to hear one persons issue went away (presumably for a while now?). I am looking at new tires and brakes soon so maybe this time it’ll...
SPL Parts installed! Could only get pictures of some of them...
Great upgrade and I am very pleased with the feel now. I would not say driving dynamics have changes but everything feels tighter and more controlled; I feel much more comfortable during spirited drives. Aligned to essentially...
The noise is still there...
When we take off the wheels and put them back on while doing other stuff the noise tends to go away for a couple of weeks. Still no steering issues or any other problem...
Thanks, friend! Good eye, actually chip design but I tell the SW guys to use 0xBADC0FFE as a test metric ;)
Parts will be installed at the end of next month. Once I get a feel for the new setup I’ll decide what to do next.
Some small cosmetic updates went on today, thanks to Verus Engineering. Continuing the black and blue theme. Got the Engine Bay Fluid Cap Kit, A/C Cap Kit, and Windshield Washer Fluid Reservoir Kit. Some quick pictures are attached below. I think I need to paint the engine cover stripes blue...
Thanks for the great write up! Very helpful. I made one change in my install and that was using fuse F267. I’ll also say that the rubber tube to the trunk lid was a pain to get off/on on the chassis side, otherwise it was a breeze.
Late reply, but...
First free service was okay and the tech was cool but the service manager was one of the worst people I have had to deal with.
Second free service (different location) I had a scheduled appointment but then they said I had to wait an extra hour because the only person that...
I am very happy to have one now, I run into enough terrible driving that I have some peace of mind knowing I can capture it if I ever need to. Definitely always want one installed now, not sure why I never had one before...
Got the dash camera installed, the guide was very helpful. I ended up...
Heh, rear is a hassle... but it is nice to have it all checked off. As long as it never needs replacing! Strut and springs are on the list but I have not decided yet, looking at SPL parts next. The bracing alone made a big difference in how the car handles though, a great improvement!
I got...
