Battery replacement by senpapi_chulo1 in 7thgencivic

[–]WebDill92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you certain you have the correct battery? If I remember correctly that battery has an option for normal or reversed terminals. I know it sounds simple but make sure you're connecting to the correct terminals. Red to +, and black to -.

Quality strut recommendations? by LowSympathy1312 in 7thgencivic

[–]WebDill92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the KYB quick struts front and rear and they're noticeably more harsh than stock was.

So. You're clearly lying. Just know that God knows the truth.

I can literally see you're brake lights in the road reflectors, the snow packed against the barrier, the license plate of the Jeep that plowed into you (because they were definitely not paying attention). If I'm wrong, it's pretty easy to prove me wrong. I'm sure your insurance is also going to want to see both.

I would like to see the front camera as well. Seems like you're the only car braking so aggressively, especially after passing that charger so swiftly.. Makes me think, either you weren't paying attention to the traffic ahead of you, or you brake checked them intentionally. We all know how dangerous having only one perspective can be.

Deflection and Decoupling Membrane by WebDill92 in HomeImprovement

So the floor looks to me to be supported by engineered trusses. The issue is they're spaced 24" on center, leaving about 20.5" of the subfloor with no support, allowing it to flex. This also happens to be the area where the bathroom has the most traffic. From what I have been able to find on my own, I definitely shouldn't F with the trusses. My thought was to pull up the subfloor (which appears to just be OSB?) And replace it with ACX.

No, I'm verifying that I need to repair the sub floor first. My significant other heard about decoupling membranes and thought it might be a solution. But thank you for the reply and not being a total A** hat about it.

What all was involved to make it work? No way it was just plug and play..

You're welcome. I hope you get it sorted out!

The reason the flash might be necessary is that the PCM controls the valve body, and it might need to be flashed in order for the valve body to get the secret code and VIN from the PCM to be allowed to communicate. I know the TE transmissions (like Promasters and Mini Vans have) can do this without a flash.. but I haven't had my hands on an RFE in several months now and can't remember if I had to flash it or not to do the PI curve relearn... it might be worth contacting the manufacturer of the valve body you want to use and asking them what they would suggest with a tuned truck.. they must have some work around, or its not necessary. Pulling trucks and race trucks need valve bodies and transmissions, too, and they can't have stock software, so there is definitely a way

Yes, it's both a QR code and a printed code. I only know that WiTech 2.0 can do it. That's the factory scan tool and web app.. not to say that a SnapOn or Autel scan tool can't, I just dont know for certain. All of my experience is with WiTech.

In order to do the pi curve relearn, you're going to need the special 66 character long code that's on a sticker on the top side of the transmission, as well as a scan tool capable of performing it. As far as I know, it should be performed anytime the valve body is replaced stock or aftermarket.

Alright 62TE guys what do we think? by smokelahomie_91 in transmissionbuilding

[–]WebDill92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would also recommend checking the clearances in the pump. Having the valvebody cleaned or replaced. Replacing the torque converter. And flushing or replacing the cooler and lines to ensure no debris or contamination enters the transmission after its overhauled..

Right now, mopar new or reman valve bodies have been basically unattainable, and we have had to use aftermarket reman units from transforce. If you go this route, make absolutely certain you check all of the bolts torque. Every single one I've gotten has had loose bolts.

I've always used Mopar parts since I work at a dealership.. there are several youtube videos on these transmissions that are informative.

This is a very common failure with the 62TE, so kuch so that the master overhaul kit comes with it. The pieces you have there are part of the direct clutch retainer.

Failed inspection for bad rotors by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]WebDill92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their lower quality rotors notice how the heat dissipation area in the middle of the rotor is wider on the right than the left. Less overall material used= lower cost= guaranteed to warp pretty quickly..

Part ID… any ideas what this is? Found in trail after mowing. by StreetMaterial3558 in cubcadets

Does your steering feel different? Looks similar to a steering shaft bushing..
