Libertarian Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 But now I have major air leakage overnight. Say 40-50psi in each bag and the tank completely empty. FUN! Took a while but its been figured out - its the actual actuator itself that is leaking. Its not closing properly. Mechanic is ordering me a spare while they get mine serviced. If they cannot do it they need to give me the newer model, which would be good - but it has smaller fittings, so theyll also have to suffer the cost of getting me some adapters. Ha!

PATS4LIFE Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Finally got to install back the stock springs.. If anyone interested my H&R spring will be for sale!! Ok after getting an alignment,the shop got the alignment on the spot,but when they test drive it car was pulling to the right,and tech said most likely that the caster was off and it’s not adjustable on our car,so my question is is there a way to adjust caster?

Grnlantern1 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Installed some Diamond Floor Mats for the Daily Driving.. They fit pretty good. I bought the mat insert to sit on top for a little more grip. Sent from my SM-G988U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertarian Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Do you mean the Air Manifold that regulates the pressure for all corners..? Sorry, yes. It was changed yesterday (big delay) and the tank is still leaking. What the ****? My mechanic cannot see any leaks anywhere - so its a mystery it seems. I may have to live with it.

If your losing Tank Pressure Check all your connections and Plugs from the Tank to the Manifold Control Unit.

DougKelly20 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Haha maybe my phone was grimey from all the sweat. Doing this 95 degree heats sucks!

Libertarian Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Had the air manifold thing (for my air suspension) changed as my old one was filled with rust and was causing leaks. Turns out the new one also leaks Then my cut out exhaust valve decided to die - the motor would power up but wouldnt close the valve. I just got a new valve and got it put in! Easy! Video of valve!

Grnlantern1 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Well had a little fun today removing my old front table brackets and getting ready to mount my New one from Garson Japan. They custom made me one as per my dimension and sent me the SJ Forester mounting hardware so today I was looking for a new way to mount it.. Stay tune for the installed pictures.

raider600 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I think the old rotors on my 3.6 were actually 2.5 rotors. Bought the car CPO with 28k miles. Not sure who would have put those on...Yes, I beat the hell out of the old rotors to get them off. No chisel. hah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who would have put those on...Yes, I beat the hell out of the old rotors to get them off. No chisel. hah I think the front rotors on the 2.5 Limited and 3.6 are the same size. I had the issue when I ordered a kit from rock auto and they sent me the pads for a 2.5 standard/premium. Good thing on the pads is that the wrong ones won't fit (notches on the caliper body are different) I could totally see it getting mixed up when ordering aftermarket ones, In your case, someone just wasn't paying attention during installation....

ammcinnis Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 (edited) ... someone just wasn't paying attention during installation.... ... or someone just didn't care. Perhaps a bigger question is why the front pads and rotors were replaced at less than 28,000 miles. Looking at the pad wear, I'd say way before 28,000 miles. For me, that would be a big red flag ... CPO or not.
