OBD2 reading, those who live near me...

Hey, you guys in AR, if you get a service engine light, let me know. You can stop by and I can pull your codes with my reader. I don't trust the dealer and got my own reader last year. And... it hasnt thrown a code since. :/

Or you are welcome to borrow it if you want to diag/tune with it. You'll just need a laptop. or if you give a me a day or two notice, I can pull your codes with mine or we can ride and capture a log file.

... and the cost would be $2.99 for the first minute and $4.99 for each additional minute.

Thank you, drive through.

Sounds good Tim. Actually my service engine light soon light was on bout a month ago. I blew a o2 sensor and got it replaced under warrentee, and the best part they gave me a brand new 2002 I35 with only 1000 miles on it. its nice and smooth. i called my dealer and hes gonna call me monday when the G-35 gets here. so im gonna go check that out. cant wait.

I'm looking for tires... and possibly rims (16" -> 17"). I'm going to give that jacksonville place a call.

Appearently, Sherwood Tire has one of those Hunter balancers that balances a tire while under load (very cool), finds out of round tires. But they have horrible selection of brands.

check this out
http://www.gsp9700.com/

see the roller?

I've heard it helps alot. I seem to always find out I have an out of round tire when I'm on a Texas interstate at about 80+ mph. Sure its balanced, but under load and speed, it vibrates.
