Random thoughts for the day

Couldn't find my 10mm socket... and now... the whole garage is cleaned and tools are organized... found 3 of the 10mm sockets... I know there are more hiding..

I am down 3 10mm's myself. One 1/4" deep wall and two regulars. They got lost in my cars. It sucks that you gotta buy whole kits to replace a few. Harbor Freight. Here I come.

The deep well is the one I DIDNT find... I’m so peeved right now..

Saw this note on MotorTrend

For those still harboring some wild-child hormones, the “12S-SHO Performance Package” ($995) buys 20-inch Eagle F1 Supercar summer rubber, performance brake pads (clamping identical discs), 20-percent-stiffer damping, nine-percent-stiffer rear springs, and a bigger rear anti-roll bar plus a shorter final-drive ratio (3.17:1 versus 2.77:1), and performance tuning of the power steering and AdvanceTrac stability control systems.

I remember when you found and fixed the issue!

Back when my wife and I were dating I had a Jetta. Whilst at the movies there was a down pour outside. After the movie we went to get into the car and there was 2” of standing water on the floor boards... talk about cooling down a hot date!

Lol... we had just come out of the Kevin Costner film “White noise”... when I turned the car on all that came out of the speakers was white noise due to the water shorting the stereo out.... very creepy...

No steam was made THAT night... ;-)

Auto start/stop on my 1.5L ecoturd is the most annoying “feature” I have ever experienced... that is all..

There are a couple ways....drive in “sport” mode, or press the off button... but it’s always on by default... annoying..

must be a pid you can change the value of, or maybe even install a "bypass" on the right wire.

I know auto start/stop can be defeated on the F150 with Forscan.  Maybe someone has figured it out for the 1.5L?

 

[ZSHO]

I might have found a way to defeat disable this annoying auto start stop feature on the Jeep!  Z

Sorry for the late reply. Does the start/stop feature activate when the Drivers seat belt is NOT ON ?  Z
