What did you do to your Gen7 today?

[CrackerTeg]

Drove it a total of 1500 miles in the last few days.

I fixed my driver window, the bracket came off the glass so I re-glued them with some epoxy glue and the also bought some silicone based lubricant to lube up the window guide rails.

Did some debugging on my fogs today to see why my DS would sometimes not turn on or just flickers. I think i need a new ballast. It did the same with another fog that I connected to the same ballast.

3x tranny flush and K&N air filter on the RDX today. Also washed my filter. Will oil and re-install tomorrow. I did attempt to replace my shifter cable bushings with the Torque Solutions ones but I gave up trying to get the old ones out.

Those bushings can be a bitch.  Sometimes, you can't do anything but replace the cables.  Are they the stock bushings?

BOT.  I dropped off my runners and the template for the flange to the machinist that will be doing all my machine work.  He said it should be done by Friday, so that means next weekend some progress should be made on my plenum.

Be careful, I ended up bending the metal rod at the end of the cable on mine. (Just a bit of a kink at the end) Everything worked out ok but it scared the hell outta me. Lol

Did you replace the filter as well? Replacing the filter helps out a lot when doing the 3x tranny service.

Yeah, i'm replacing the stock bushings because i have excess play in my shifter. Eg. I used to go as far right as i can go to get into 5th and now the shifter goes pass where 5th is. Its as if my gears are closer to the left now and I know the gears didnt move hence why im swapping bushings. Reverse seems to work fine. I may have stretched or wear out something the week i had to drive without the reverse lock.

Thx man, i'll keep that in mind.

No, I thought about it, but the thread over on acurazine didn't mention anything about  the filter. Then again, they may not need a new filter being that most of those guys do the 3x around every 2 oil change. A little overkill for a daily if you ask me. I'm just following the maintenance schedule. I still have to flush the transfer case and diff.

Oiled and re-installed air filter, opened it up a few time without load and got a flashing CEL. Scanned and confirmed multiple misfires. Looks like it's time for a set of plugs. These have been in for about 70k+ miles.

I just had this code last week and traced it to one bad coil. Might want to check those first its easy and free!

Finally put on my HIDs! (No, not ricer blue)

Would be multiple coils, right, being that I have it on cylinders 1,2&4? I'll try and check today tho.

[Mike]

No sir mine came up as 1,3, and 5 with the code for multiple misfires. Just unplug one at a time and listen for the idle to change. If you unplug one with no change move it to a different cylinder. If your problem moves with it the coil is bad.

[thisaznboi88]

if you need coils LMK if you need 1 to test or replace
