Anybody got a good video for installing a new shifter boot? I've seen a few that go over parts of it. I imagine it'll go like this:
1) Unscrew shift knob
2) Pry tool center console silver lid off
3) Detach a few cables
4)Unscrew old boot assembly
5)Screw in new boot assembly
6)Reverse my steps...
Looking for some advice: in the process of taking my AC grille assembly out (more than 10 times at this point!) attempting to diagnose a passenger side rattle, the vinyl around the grille is looking a little wrinkled/dented from the pry tool, even though I was wrapping it in microfiber.
What's...
I've took my dash apart three different times today trying to diagnose a rattle coming from the passenger side. I ruled out it being the AC grille assembly by driving around the block with it hanging out and the rattle still happened. I gotta take it out again tomorrow and try more diagnosing.
Some rattle updates:
Dealer looked at the metallic pinging noise from my steering wheel. Opened it up and felt taped a bunch of contact points around the airbag seating. It still does it but it's much quieter. Not really a fix and I'll be curious to see if Honda says anything about it because...
Necro thread:
At the dealer today, gonna see what they think about this. Another forum member mentioned it but it might be an issue with how the airbag is seated. They’re gonna try that, see how it goes. I’ll update if that’s the fix.
5.79% over here and I honestly couldn't find much better with other lenders out there, maybe but .2 or .3. I miss the sub 3% days but this is just how it is right now.
Speaking of Curry Honda, I was gonna take my FL5 in to them for maintenance because they're close by. Do any of the ATL area dealers seem better than others for regular maintenance stuff?
I'm still getting a rattle from my front right defroster vent that is driving me crazy. I've removed the plastic vent piece, still rattles. Tried felt tape in a couple spots. Still rattles. Stuffed two inch foam into areas in the vent. Still rattles.
If I push down a little on the plastic vent...
Progressive was also the cheapest option for me as well at $115 a month. I previously had USAA, and they're great, but the difference in price was over $50 a month.
That SPR front lip is sick but I'm definitely gonna hold out a few more months to see what else people come up with. I know this is probably an unpopular opinion but I'm really curious to see if someone makes an FK8 style wing for the FL5. It might be worse for weight/aero but I love a big dumb...
I think I'm going with Overland designs, just waiting for them to come back in stock. I'm actually tempted to get their alcantara side panels for the center console too.
What are the longer term concerns with an aftermarket filter here? It seems like everything that isn't the OEM has worse filtration and I'd hate to lessen my engine life with an aftermarket filter.
I felt taped my top right air/defroster vent and it is still rattling. I gotta mess with it some more, figure out exactly where the vibration is hitting and tape that spot.
