    Roof antenna removal

    I believe I will try and remove the antenna alltogether, when I had the headliner down I could not see a bolt or anything under the roof and didn't think too much of it till now. I am going to try not to have to wrap around it. Thanks for the input, much appreciated.

Vtec tries to engage with the oil pressure, and can not operate properly so the motor puts itself in "limp mode". Only when this happened to...

    Roof antenna removal

    The factory roof antenna for a 2dr. It's in the middle of the roof by the glass on back. Is it possible that this antenna is a an aftermarket one, and I have heard that the factory radio goes through the defroster?

    My condenser fan does not engage until the car reaches operating temperature. Even though the ac is turned on it will not engage fan. I have checked the relay by hooking up 12v and I hear the click , I have also swapped the relay with a working one and that did not fix the problem. I...

    Good ol wastegate question

    here it is simple, you want good parts for certain things. Ebay headlights work just as good as oem (mostly) but ebay wastegates are not in the same quality control standards that more expensive brands go for. they look great function most of the time, but have a much higher fail rate, and do...

    Stuck in 2nd.

    one cable is attached to the bracket to allow just the actual wire to move the arm. The other cable is not attached to the bracket therefore when moving the gear lever it moves the entire cable and rod wich seems like it doesnt move the arm. this as of now is what my conclusion is until my...

    Limp mode - No CEL

    was the motor before the swap a VTEC motor or not. if I'm not mistaken ULEV did not have VTEC. So your wiring harness may not be telling VTEC to engage hence causing the engine to go into limp mode.at least that's just a thought.
