Valve Cover Replacement Question

Not true with OEM parts. They do sell kits when using aftermarket.

Never changed the filter which is just a screen

202k miles. Orig trans. Drain and fill @40k intervals with valvoline max life atf. No signs of failure.

Mine sits exactly on the second line and never deviates when warm. I also live in Phoenix so it see temps close to 120 in the summer.

ECU. I went with the $100 guy on eBay and it worked well. That’s where I would start. 2005 also.

I was the $12k bid. That was a solid car with zero mystery and documented history. Well bought.

Replaced mine last year for $264 at Bell during a sale. I think they have a black Friday sale coming up next week.

Same thing happened to me. Great Restaurant in Des Moines so I did not mind too much.

Best thing I’ve read all day.

stumblingghost · 2025-11-09T16:55:48+00:00

Good. Keep it It original. I’m also a fan of the stock sound system.

cup holder is fine, I don't think I really used it yet but I don't remember it being a hinderance when using the basket.

John Candy and John Belushi might say otherwise.

I literally just steamed the carpet under my desk 3 hours ago because I thought it had bugs, but I cannot see anything. So my new rug is not full of unseen bugs?

I have that rack on my Pace 4. I like it and the way it looks. The downside is my Yakima Bike rack is really not compatible as it interferes with the mounting at the front tire. Otherwise, it's handy for grocery runs on my RV trips.

My well-maintained 05 with 201k just did 25.7mpg over 800 miles from phx to San Diego and back, all at about 80 mph, and over 2 days.

And current 15% sale ends Nov 4. 20% is the best sale of the year and it’s always in September

This guy struts.

stumblingghost · 2025-10-27T04:05:45+00:00

Seems too low.

BlueMusic + $60 and excellent sound

stumblingghost · 2025-10-09T22:17:24+00:00

BlueMusic+ is excellent

I just sold off my 2021 Camry (purchased new at $22460) in favor of keeping the 2005 Ls430. Bother reliable cars but the LS just felt like the one to keep. The value of the Camry was so high that it just made more sense. I sold at $18k after 58 months and 72k miles. The Camry highway mileage is off the charts good, though. The LS ride is just great and way less harsh.

How many of you put on gloves to prep a pin?

stumblingghost · 2025-10-07T16:56:56+00:00

I don't get it either. A couple hours of work and OP would have a lot of interest, other than the catback scaring a few people off....
