Thank you for the write up and excellent pics.. My Dayton arrived today and the Pioneer sub has been sitting in the box for a couple of months now so it's time to get this done. First thing I noticed with the Dayton was the weight of it. Very heavy considering the size.. Gonna tackle both later...
I would request the dealer swap all 4 tires and rims from a car that does not vibrate, maybe one that's a used car and see what happens. Do you feel the vibration in your butt or steering wheel? What happens if you are in park and rev the motor, do you feel it then? Also if you touch the...
Just did my 2nd OC and I'm once again using PUP 5w-30 and a Motorcraft FL-500S filter P/N AA5Z-6714-A. This is the 14 fluted variety.
One thing I did discover is that MotivX Tools sells a very high quality tool which fits this filter perfectly. It's not cheap, but it's a nice tool...
Great explanation. To my ears, the stock sub is all upper mid bass "thump" with little to no actual, typical, subwoofer frequencies. It's kind of like the smiley curve people use on their EQ, low end only of course. Example, i was listening to a 320k Mp3 of "A Taste Of Honey" Boogie, Oogie...
As a longtime closet audiophile, B&O was never know for accurate sounding high end systems for home audio but more for their innovative designs. I do believe there used to be a B&O display at MOMA in NYC at one time. B&O had really crazy looking designs and that is what sold the brand. Either...
When I used to travel extensively for business I was always getting upgrades at Hertz and other rental agencies. A couple of years ago they gave me a Gen 6 Camaro with the base LT v8 motor. I drove it almost 2000 miles from NY to GA and back. It was a nice car, lot's of bells and whistles and it...
Had a vibration like this on my ancient Chrysler 1979 LeBaron coup, RWD. No Corinthian Leather but nice red suede lol ! Anyway, intermittent high speed vibration, never felt it in the steering wheel or seat bottom. Long story short, turned out to be a slightly sticking front caliper. Only way I...
I'm totally stock but at home I have a small project studio which I have done sweeps on so I'm kinda familiar with the various frequency ranges and what good sound should sound like.
You are correct that the x-over is too high and allowing too much mid-bass. I think manufacturers do this to...
To my ears, the stock sub has an awful upper mid bass bump that is extremely irritating. I'm installing the Pioneer this week. I might also install the dash speaker as well as I have that one sitting on the shelf..
Aside from slinking a vacuum into the hole, has anyone tried flushing it out with a pressure washer or even just a garden hose? Will the debris exit out towards the back of the car or is there no other hole back there? Just curious. TIA...
I've signed up with several data broker removal companies. Incogni being one of them. Totally worth the money in time saved... Check Kim Komando's site for discounts. You will be shocked at how much information the data brokers have an sell. It's not perfect, nothing is, but it's cheap and...
Not road smells but I made the mistake of using white vinegar to remove some water spots on exterior glass and even though I did not use a lot, the car smelled inside for about 3 weeks before it finally dissipated. Lessons learned !
I requested an Op-Out a couple of weeks ago and I've just received the reply from LexisNexis.
To me, it looks like plenty of agencies will still have access to my data 👾

Speaking of A/C controls, I don't think I am understanding this correctly. So since it's summer where I live, let's say I set the interior temp. to 68 and have the Auto set for 3 dots, highest fan speed. I when I first get in the hot car on a 90 degree day, will the A/C attempt to bring the...
