Mentioning the //M3 and G35 was to show you how you sound for throwing the fact that you have a new car in peoples faces. Makes it sound like....

Wow, you sound dumber and dumber each time you post. So I suggest you stop. Who said his car keeps breaking down? Just because your maxima isnt in good condition doesn't mean everyones is a POS.

I say motion to ban mixshows since he clearly doesn't want to be on this site so no point in arguing with him as he is a small minded and also has a small p3nis since he seems to be showboating show much about how his 6th gen is much nicer than an INFINITI G35 and Jeff please delete all the stupid crap he put on here.
Back on topic. Whats the update on the ring?

Ashvin.. have you checked the incabin filter? i mean i havnt looked at the diagram of our cooling/heating system but like i said before doesnt the air have to filter first before it comes out thru the vents? Follow me up with whats goin on.

On the lost ring, I think you may have to pull the evap case. The defrost vents drop down into the case, you may find the ring lodged under the edge of the heater core or ac evaperator. The good news is the ring is in there, you just have to locate it. I've never pulled the Case on the 5th gen Max but you may in fact have to vac the ac down so you can disconnect the ac lines
and remove the evaperator.

He said he might also be able to get a endoscope thing so I can look inside things with a camera. It's looking like a lost cause!! Glad I insured the thing under my home owners insurance! Should I change the heater core while I'm at it?
Swee, I'm afraid your wisdom may be falling on deaf ears.

Maybe tie fishing line to a washer and toss it down the vent to give you an idea of the trajectory and/or obstructions? Also, some have suggested magnets. I'm pretty sure noble metals used in making engagement rings are non-ferrous, so magnets are useless. Good luck man. And try your best to ignore the drama. There's a time and place for that stuff, and this ain't it....unless I accidentally logged on to the Dr. Phil forum instead of MAXIMA.org.

I hear you BigeL,
I do wonder if he will have a rattling in his dash? That would drive me nuts.
I also wondered if I had mistaken this website also, it is MAXIMA.org, right?
Why not change it to 'germancarsarebetterthanmaximas.org'?
I've seen it too much lately, sadly enough, and right here at our site.
Also, thank you for your comment about my wisdom. It took me a little bit to realize the value Eric has. Great Guy!
Ashvin, let us know how things are progressing will ya?

I don't get why you are complaining about the BMWs. They all used to be .org members and just because they upgraded doesn't mean they can't come back in here to start a little chit chat. Mass use to be a big part of the 5th gen forum. So please you havn't been her long enough to notice. They are defending their car that they have now. I bet if you were in his position you would be defending the car too.

Um Law,
I wasn't defending the other owner. You read into my statement his defense? You're incorrect. My post was more directly related to the comment regarding Maximas, and more specifically, the 6th.
I am an active member on 6thgenmaxima.org and there isn't any 6th gen bashing. In fact, there isn't any other Maxima bashing AT ALL. It isn't tolerated. The OP here posted over there and he has a 2000 GXE. He was treated with the utmost of respect. It didn't get ugly.....(until he got really snotty with the group over there when they offered help he didnt like. BTW, some of the same suggestions were made here). But it wasn't ever a gen issue.
Swee
Oops, wanted to tell you, pm sent.

The thing is that the 6thgen forum you guys have is prob much smaller than the actual org in which case is always going to be hard to moderate no matter how you see it. The smaller the community the easier it is to put pressure on the people and to have a "Zero Tolerance" on bashing.

Talk about a hijacked thread! This should be like the n00b thread in the 5th gen forum and NEVER die. Whether the ring is lost or not, just keep this thread alive with random useless b.s. that has hijacked and COMPLETELY inundated this thread with.
Good stuff folks.

lesson of the day:
Dont be such a sourpuss.. you only live once, that money isnt going with you to the afterlife after you die.
Dont be such a sourpuss.. you only live once, that money isnt going with you to the afterlife after you die.
I'm planning for the future, not maxing out my credit and living in the present.
The money I'm making now is going into my house, which will only appreciate and make me money, rather than a hunk of rolling metal that is worth less every time I drive it. another portion of that money is going into an investment fund for my kids to go to college so that they can get nice jobs and don't have to deal with people like you.
EDIT:
NOW I KNOW WHY YOURE SO SOUR!....U DONT HAVE A JOB THEREFORE U CANT AFFORD A BETTER CAR THAN A 96, THEREFORE YOU COME ON THE FORUM AND MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE FOR HAVING A NICE CAR...AM I FORGETTING ANYTHING!?

I in fact have TWO jobs, both of which make very decent money. For the last four years, I've run BlehmCo, LLC which MAKES PARTS FOR THESE POS MAXIMAS. Gross sales in my first year of operation was well into the six figures, and the only reason I'm not making more now is because I've switched my emphasis from that job to my current one:
For my 9-5, I'm a Marine Engineer for an Oceanography firm. I design, fabricate, repair, and deploy oceanographic and metocean instrumentation and systems. I'm currently posting from an oil rig off the coast of Equatorial Guinea installing a horizontal current profile and wave acquisition system, of which there are only four other operational units in the world. (I installed two of those other systems in the Guld of Mexico earlier this year). Two weeks ago, I was in Trinidad and Venezuela for another project.. At the end of the week, I'm going to Paris- and getting paid to be there. My gross income for this job is again in the six figure range.
Cliff's Notes:
I drive an old car because I WANT to. not because I HAVE to. I put my wife in a newer, nicer car because she wanted it. I can easily pay for my toys, and have plenty of them.
I have a 4 door sedan that can outrun most sports cars on the street and track, as well as hold four people comfortably. I also have a sports coupe that can outrun many supercars on the road course, AND I have a truck that can tow them to the track and back. All for less money than you have in ONE car.
Nest time you want to talk ****, I'd advise you to go somewhere else.

Now, back to the issue at hand.
The evaporator core is before the heater core in the grand scheme of things. you can remove the heater box (and core) without having to discharge and remove the A/C evaporator. My guess is that it's going to be inside the heater box, since the defrost vents go directly from the box to the dash vents. it's also at the bottom of the hill, to gravity will tend to make it stop there.
remove the heater box and start shaking. I bet it's in there.. Good luck.

Mixxshows is not the first 6th gen'r to pull the 'ol "You can't afford a new car so you're stuck in an antique" rhetoric bullshi. Shows you how dumb people can be. As if buying a new car is the only way to prove you're paid.

I am in now way interested in defending Mix. I don't blame you for your retort to him. However, you did bash the 6th gen as a whole. Reread your post.
Take on Mix, one on one. I'd pay to see it. I'd also like to hear about your car and your mods. I'm sure you're equally enthusiastic about yours as I am about my car.
In your own words, nice try though!

As for Matt's point of view, I don't blame him one bit. Unlike you, his priorities are in the right place. He doesn't feel the need to prove ANYTHING to ANYONE like you because you are a blithering idiot.
