Actually they gave me a choice of what to get I don't know why I picked. Something different. I have never driven over a speed hump and had both front and back wheels on the hump at the same time.lol

Bump for this week's meet. Alex(SMOKETREES) was out at the last one and we had a pretty decent mix of cars. I counted 35 cars that night

After driving the xB when my frs was in the shop, I kinda wanna try other scions just for the "this is different" factor. Maybe I'll take the car in and have the chirps fixed, the window switch replaced and have them diagnose this "noise" they heard last time..just for the random rental

Do you drive that in a constant state of paranoia since everything can squish you, and you dont have the power to get out the way?

I asked about Megan coilovers because my wife brought it up... didn't know it was because she bought me a set of Megan street series so they will be here in a week or so I'll let you know how they feel once I get them installed.. I know they are far from the best but they seem like the best of the cheap ones. She knows a lot about cars and more about engine rebuilding than me but suspension is not her department.

Yeah I did the adjustments in hopes of fixing the feel for the clutch, which felt different than every other clutch I felt.

Thank got the FRS has more trunk space than the IQ

The car is funny as hell to drive. The headlights will lift about 3 feet abou ten feet out. The back of the car squats about a foot when you floor it. We hit about 40 over a speed bump and the car suspension just ate it up. I'm gonna feel like I have real power when I get my car back lol.

They are also ordering me a another fuel assembly for the chirp that came back.

They replaced the window switch as well and said that it is working....we will see.

Hopefully they have the rattle resolved as well.

At least the service department is great here and the tech is a nice guy.

Ill be there tomorrow morning. Chirps are back and new fuel pump has a loud ticking noise that was not there before. Also having them fix the rattling window control panels.
