@gullzaway - How quickly does your phone connect and display AA on the dash screen after you get in and start your truck? I've been using a cheapo Temu dongle since day one of my /23 ownership, but it's never been quick and reliable enough for my satisfaction. I'm thinking maybe the AAWireless...
This is the first I've heard about the new EB being port injection. That alone might be a deciding factor for many who understand the difference between port and direct injection. Nice upgrade right there!
Thanks for the insights about the test. Do you know if there's a minimum ambient temperature requirement for the test to execute? I can manage to check the boxes you listed, but it's gonna be a while before my steed runs in warm weather.
Thanks for the feedback, gents. The tech swapped out a fuel pressure sensor and performed a pressure test, which indicated that the system behaves properly.. The service writer stated that the old sensor tested at -.5V under proper reading and its replacement tested at the proper 2V. So far...
I have a question for those in the know about the EVAP system and the tests that the vehicle runs on itself to determine if everything is kosher.
I took my 2.0 EB in a few weeks ago for a P0496 code ("EVAP Emission High Purge Flow Fault"), and they replaced the purge valve to remedy. I picked...
@Barracuda340 Nice looking setup you put together. And you saved $100 over what I put together almost exclusively from Amazon parts. What catch can did you use for your assembly? I clicked around the web for a long time before choosing THIS ONE from Amazon, which looked identical to most others...
The interior plastic in my Lariat has the durability of Play-Doh. I can easily scratch it with my fingernail. Knowing this, I'm just careful about how I treat it; it is what it is. The Mav is still the single best vehicle for my purpose.
Any concern about the deflector adhesive not sticking to ceramic? I had my protective film installed before applying ceramic coating per the PPF installer's guidance because PPF (or anything else for that matter, include dirt and bugs, etc.) doesn't stick well to ceramic-coated surfaces. Just an...
I've found the lane centering function on my '23 Lariat to be a nuisance. It does a poor job of centering the vehicle and tends to float between the lines to the extent that I'm often concerned others (cops) will think I'm ripe for a DUI. And any attempt I make to correct the vehicle's idea of...
Just an FYI - I was going to write up detailed instructions on my DIY dual-can setup for others to use as a guide, but after tallying up the cost (~$250), it just doesn't make sense to go the DIY route when UPR's $300 kit only costs about $50 more than I have into my DIY assembly. So, for anyone...
I was about to ask this question in a new thread but decided to search first. Whattayaknow, this thread popped up.
I checked each of my catch-cans (2) last weekend and was surprised to find nothing in the clean side and about 1/4 cup in the dirty side. The dirty side contents were extremely low...
Hello fellow Mav owners from the rust-belt (SE Wisconsin here). As winter approaches, I've been considering giving my Mav's doors a treatment of DINITROL or other lanolin-based product, applied through the door drain holes in order to stave off rusting of the doors as long as possible. The...
That's disappointing. I'm on the road for work and was planning to attempt it when I return home. I guess I'll skip it and run with the original fittings. Thanks for the update.
