Well, started the rod bearing swap today, got to #2 rod bearings which is pictured. Also finally swapped my front brakes with the Slonik kit sold to us here on the forums. Tomorrow the rest of the bearings, motor mounts, underdrive pulley, etc.

U0107 "Lost Communication With Throttle Actuator 'A' Control Module".

Have had this a few times during a cold start. If i drive a bit down the road and restart the car it goes back to normal.
Not sure how old the battery is, purchased the car in November.

They are from the bearings themselves. Crankshaft, rods, etc all checked out just fine

Shaves looked pretty substantial. Will be interesting to see the rest of them!
Cheers for sharing.

Agreed. Scary!

Going to pick up my car. Hopefully card doesn’t get declined. Since my bank won’t life my daily 1k limit unless I go in and ask them too. Even then they get the manager involved and make me sign paperwork

Oh it is quite literally. The house is trashed. It’s so bad we have to contract it out.

MaximusB · 02-02-2018, 01:34 PM

Found a box of CF emblems (all 7 of them) that I bought a while and completely forgotten about

Guess I should put those on before I forget and go buy another set.
