• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Do I need BUDS to depressurize the fuel filter to change it?

    Oh yes. The one thing you don't want to accidently do is turn the key on while you have the lines off the filter. Doing that will allow you to see just how well your electronic fuel pump works.

    What do you do to stop if Spyder Brake Master cylinder quits?

    The same thing you would do in a car. The master cylinder is divided into 2 parts. The front half applies the rear brake and the rear half applies the front. Unlikely both sides go out at one time. If they do most folks just $^&T themselves and hope for the best.

    Do I need BUDS to depressurize the fuel filter to change it?

    Unless everything has been static for a very long time the fuel filter is likely to have pressure on it. I will wrap a rag around the hose end before I pull it off to contain the spray. Not a big deal unless it catches you off guard. If you have BUDS you can bleed the pressure off before...

    What is the actual break-in mileage? First oil-change due when?

    It seems a dealer will almost always err on the side of putting money in their pocket.

    Need Help with Fobo tire monitor install - app not responding...

    Did you get them new or used? If new was it a new unopened package they came out of or a return? The reason I ask is if they have ever been setup by someone they have to be released by that someone using the app. Otherwise they are just a pretty valve cap for the next person that tries to...

    How much will it help to wrap the exhaust pipe going into cat/primary muffler?

    They provided an estimate for the header, piping, outside of cat and muffler of $528 plus shipping. 4 week turnaround. I won't need the cat or the muffler so I figure less than $300. I think it would be worth it. Maybe a winter project! Thanks for the info PMK.

    Apple Car Play Compensation

    If Apple Car Play can be put on a tablet and sold for less than $200 I don't think it's a money thing.

    Trying to decide between this 2019 RT Ltd or a 2024 year/model - advice?

    If you can get the 2019 at a great price, don't be scared of it. Mine has 55,000 plus miles on it, so I figure it's just passed getting broken in.

    Any riding roads suggestions for Skyline Drive & Blue Ridge PKW

    I was asked about NC32 in a private message, and I tried to send a couple of pics but couldn't - only allowed from a URL. So I will post them here and send a PM to say that I did. They are from a map overlay of a short section of dashcam footage. The second shot shows a bigger area, with the...

    12 Volt Battery - System Overload message... Any ideas on how to fix/clear this?

    Well, I guess the fuse was the fusible link I asked about. Put the NOCO back in if you want to, just make sure that there can't be a chance of a temporary reverse polarity.

    12 Volt Battery - System Overload message... Any ideas on how to fix/clear this?

    That is most likely the problem. Can't look it up right now while at work but maybe PMK or BajaRon can help out. Can't remember if there is a fusible link in the system between the alternator and battery or if it might have taken out a Diode.

    12 Volt Battery - System Overload message... Any ideas on how to fix/clear this?

    No need for freeway speed to charge as it has an alternator with a fairly high output. Are you sure the cables are tight? The only other thing I can think of is did the cables get reversed for a split-second during install?

    12 Volt Battery - System Overload message... Any ideas on how to fix/clear this?

    Did you charge the battery to full capacity before installing it?

    How much will it help to wrap the exhaust pipe going into cat/primary muffler?

    They didn't have a Spyder in their gallery, but I did put in for a quote. I could see this having a major impact of felt heat at slow speeds.
