  1. OK - it's nine years later, but just stumbled upon this and I could really use the contact, too, if the guy is still active. Thanks!
  2. I'm considering an e63s wagon. I really would rather not give up the stick, though and full truth: I'd much rather re-buy a brand new version of exactly what I have right now (05 LGT Ltd Wagon 5MT, 145k mi). A Volvo V90 is also on the table (and I do recognize it would be the more sane choice).
  3. I'm in the same spot, except my garage confirmed that I'll need a tank replacement. I'd really like to keep this car as long as I can, but fearful this is the age when numerous systems might begin to fail. 2005 Legacy GT Wagon Limited 5MT White/Beige 145k
  4. Thank you both, Nonamedude and solidxsnake I'm in NJ, so I'll check out the COBB shops unless anyone has a particular provider to recommend. No signs, yet of turbo wear, but a new upgrade would reset the clock on that particular component, at least.
  5. I just passed 140k on my 2005 LGT 5MT Ltd. I am still enchanted with this car and hate the thought of giving it up. I haven't had any major problems with it thus far, apart from replacing some downpipes and sensors to keep the CELs at bay. As an apartment dweller with zero access to a DIY garage, am I nuts for fantasizing that there might be shops in the Northeast who can revitalize these? I realize I have a bird-in-the-hand, and maybe I should just enjoy it and consider getting it rebuilt only once something major actually gives out.
  6. If anyone else the problem of the display on your AP being all messed up, I recommend that you push really firmly on the connection at the ODB port. The left 1/8th of the screen had static and the remainder looked like each row of was shifted further to the right. I was worried that a broken LCD display was going to give me a $400 repair bill from COBB (of which I'd heard mention on other threads). Other posters' advice of making EXTRA sure you have FIRMLY connected to the ODB saved me a COBB call. Hint: Reaching over to the other side of the flimsy panel on which the ODB port is mounted should give you the leverage you need to squeeze the connectors firmly enough together.
  7. I have also been holding off on my install until I can find a 3.5mm GLI (and it's frustrating me - I know I'm being anal, but the idea of unnecessarily having to go 'to' and 'from' RCA just grates on me). Has anyone had any luck finding this elsewhere? Why is this thing so rare?
  8. Beeter, given that the Jazzy is wired for 1/8" jacks, I was hoping to avoid unnecessary M/F adaptors. If I were to use this Crutchfield product (instead of the Radio Shack GLI) am I right in thinking that I could do without the RCA-to-mini adaptors you published in your list? (I understand, of course, that I might need extra cables simply to cover the length of the distance from the Jazzy to wherever I make the final jack pop out) http://www.crutchfield.com/S-g9TZJjfMgxr/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=181150&I=127SNI135&search=ground+loop Thanks, Mason
