    Could be the ACC is acting up and/or blend door issues.

    Honestly a tech2 I think is needed to better diagnose. If there is a way to calibrate these ACC units on Dame cars I haven’t found it yet.

    I bought bilstein b4’s for the rear from rockauto at $67 a piece I think. It was cheap. The front I got Sachs which is oem from FCPEURO for about the same price for front struts.

    7/8 is like half a mm off of 23 I think or 24mm. I only used it as it was all I could find in my area and the original was either 24 or 25mm.

    Indeed. Same switch. Not the easiest to replace but not the worst. You have to replace it from under the car. The wiring that connects to the starter and alternator has to be removed and pushed...

    If it is a head gasket the leaks won’t get worse. Combustion pressure is pressurizing your crankcase if it is leaking.

    Doing a compression test will verify that. You can buy a compression...

    High Crankcase Pressure

    There is a check valve near the throttle body that fails and will cause oil leaks. About the size of an American quarter in diameter. I’d replace that and redo the valve cover gasket/cam seals (if...

    I’m sure there might be another on mine. The clamp on the turbo has oil drops on it. Could be the paper gasket, or the copper rings. I’m a bit hesitant to tackle that for fear of stripping bolts.

    Has anyone wrapped their cat before? I was told it was a good idea because of the proximity to the oil pan. I also think I am leaking from the oil pressure switch and its dripping on the cat or...
