    Intermittent low (e.g. zero) oil pressure issue - GM 6.0 V8

    I don't want to give any bad advice when it comes to oil pressure, so don't ignore the advice from the above members who have a lot more experience than I do in these matters, but didn't these vehicles have issues with the instrument cluster and gauges? I saw in your video that your digital...

    Do Oil Filters Go Bad Sitting On The Shelf Too Long?

    For K&N at O'Reilly's if I did not use the M1. O'Reilly's also sells Nissan filters, but I saw a cut open video of that...what a mess! Always was under the impression OE was better... Nissan Filter Cut Open

    Do Oil Filters Go Bad Sitting On The Shelf Too Long?

    I have a Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil filter that I purchased for my 04 Nissan Sentra back in 2015 as part of a oil change discounted bundle, but never used. This had been sitting in the Nissan's trunk for years and then moved to my garage. I have done oil changes since then, but used K&N...

    25K GM fuel pump humming. Is it failing?

    I had this...sooooo annoying, especially the one that is right next to your ear. Funny how the internet seems to think these are little speakers. I changed the front one and it got quiet. A long time after, the back one started getting noisy. Replaced it when I re-did my headliner recently. All...

    25K GM fuel pump humming. Is it failing?

    I had to replace mine at 135k miles on my 03. The pump was working fine, but I was having to crank a few times before it would start. I was told there is an integrated valve in the pump that was failing causing the fuel in the lines to drain back into the tank.

    Cold air on one side only, not a door issue?

    I am no expert, so take my feed back with a grain of salt... The symptoms seem like a blend door issue to me (the one that controls the passenger side temperature), but you have ruled that out electronically. Doesn't the position of the door read from the position of the actuator movement...

    E85 Occasional use in FlexFuel Vehicle?

    I have a 2003 Suburban Flex Fuel vehicle.... Out of my own ignorance, I never even considered using E85, which is plentiful near me. I was always under the impression that ethanol was a bad thing. I use ethanol free in my boat and in my Sentra both of which sit for extended periods of time. My 2...

    Porsche Cayenne - Rear BCM

    I am dealing with some electronic issues on an old SUV as well. Mine is a fuse panel which has corrosion from a leaking windshield. Like mine, I would imagine if the module has corrosion, the pins on the connector would as well. Might be worth looking at the connector if you haven't already. I...

    Fuse Block Corrosion Cleaning After Windshield Leak- 98 Expedition

    Took the fuse box apart. Amazing how there was not more of a problem. This is what was left after it was all dried out. Looks like it has been going on for a long time. Pictures show the path of the water across the different circuits. I have done a major preliminary cleaning and have ordered...

    Fuse Block Corrosion Cleaning After Windshield Leak- 98 Expedition

    The GEM visually looked pretty good. I would imagine if this was cooked, I would see some burn marks or signs of corrosion on the circuit board? Not saying that it might not be bad as well, just nothing as obvious as the fuse panel corrosion. This brings up another question regarding GEM. Is it...

    Fuse Block Corrosion Cleaning After Windshield Leak- 98 Expedition

    This looks like a good idea for treating the corrosion. From videos I have watched, the contact plates are separated by several layers of plastic trays and the moisture and corrosion goes deep into the layers. I don't imagine that a topical soak would be effective enough without some disassembly.

    Fuse Block Corrosion Cleaning After Windshield Leak- 98 Expedition

    Pretty sure they are plated. From the videos I have watched, they have a silver appearance. I saw some on ebay for around 80.00 to 100.00 and contacts look really clean. I would prefer to clean mine up if possible, this is becoming my backup vehicle now and is hardly used any more, plus I am...

    Fuse Block Corrosion Cleaning After Windshield Leak- 98 Expedition

    Had a windshield leak on my 98 Expedition a while back and noticed my battery died in a short period of time. I recharged and took the vehicle out for a drive and electronics were going crazy. things clicking on and off, 4x4 engaging and dis-engaging, air bag light and lots of clicking noises...

    Alternate to E3 Pads

    It seems Hawk and EBC are about the same price. EBC is slightly more and claims rotors do not need any prep when re-using the rotors, which is saving some prep time if this is something that actually works and is more than just marketing. I was concerned about potentially introducing any new...

    Alternate to E3 Pads

    Looks like a good option. Plenty of good reviews. I assume Extremes are the wat to go with these. I like they come with new shims.

    Alternate to E3 Pads

    I have Rabestos Specialty rotors with Hawk LTS pads on the front of my 03 Suburban. I was going to put e3's as a temporary pad replacement (1 year) on the rears and keep existing rotors until next year. (I posted a separate thread regarding this). I read several reviews that the e3's do not have...

    Tire Recommendations 2004 Nissan Sentra

    Returned Goodyears. Thanks for saving me on those. Went with Michelin Defender TH instead. I have the LTX MS on my Suburban and those are great Florida tires, so figured I can't go wrong with the Michelins. Good overall reviews and high scores compared to other brands. 70.00 off and free install...

    Tire Recommendations 2004 Nissan Sentra

    Couldn't find the Goodyear EfficientGrip in my size locally. I did find that Sam's has Goodyear Eagle RS-A for 371.00 installed. I ordered them on impulse since sale ends today and I like the Goodyear name in general. I have had a set of Endurance on my cargo trailer forever and they won't quit...
