• 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.

    Correct Coolant (Orange)

    Can someone please tell me which coolant is correct for my 2014 ST-L? It came with orange coolant from the factory. Now it appears they've relabeled the containers and I don't know which I need. Or maybe there's a car antifreeze that's compatible? My owners manual states PN 219 700 362 but I...

    How to remove right side panel on ST

    Be prepared for other coolant leaks. Mine started with the clamp down low one year, then a following year it was clamps up by the throttle bodies that required airbox removal.

    Rear Shock - Adjustable Replacement??

    We put an Elka on the rear of our ST Limited. Ours had the Fox adjustable shocks up front so I just cranked up the spring preload to the max.

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    No you didn't miss anything. Like I said before, they had the problem diagnosed before they even saw the Spyder, they wanted to blame me for overfilling the tank. I mentioned to them numerous times that there was an updated purge valve assembly for that model but all they'd say was that a code...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    Well after almost 3 weeks at the dealer we finally got the Spyder back. They claim they weighed the old charcoal canister and it was 515 grams and a new one is 400 grams so there was some fuel in it. They were determined that we overfilled it but I know for a fact it was never overfilled. They...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    We dropped it off at the dealer today and that was the second time the service manager wanted to self diagnose the issue without even looking at it and blaming me for overfilling the tank. They claim they won't even look at it until Thursday. He also seemed to want to forget the fact that there...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    We drop it off at the dealer tomorrow so I'll keep the thread updated. I know there's an updated purge valve, maybe that'll fix it with a new charcoal canister. The ST was fine for about the first 6500 miles, the last 500 or so has been when I've noticed the problem. So something has clearly...

    Looks like Tapatalk is gone for good!

    It's really too bad, I use TT solely for using forums and I refuse to use the regular web based site because it loads too much stuff that kills your battery and eats data. There are still a lot of vBulletin Solutions forums that are up and running through TT, not real sure why someone would...

    ST-S Fluids question

    I just went through a similar problem with my ST. It ended up being the crimp clamps up under the airbox where the hoses go into a plastic junction type box then into the cylinders. I popped off the old clamps and replaced them with a quality screw type clamp.

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    I have the Spyder booked in for next week. The service writer was already leaning toward me overfilling the tank of course. They're going to diagnose it and get back to me. I really think there's a purge valve issue seeing they don't even list the old style purge valves on the parts...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    Great explanation! Thank you. I'm assuming my purge valve must be stuck in the closed position then. I'll call the dealership in a little while and see if I can get it in there soon. And I see what you're saying about the purge valve kit they offer now, it looks like it has a filter and some...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    So the purge valve will make fuel come out the charcoal canister vent line? The regular factory warranty has expired a couple months ago but we're onto the B.E.S.T. warranty now, would those emissions items be covered under that or is this repair on my dime? Thanks.

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    Thanks for the reply Sarge. That is sort of what I was afraid of. I thought BRP changed things on the 14's to stop that issue from happening. Maybe I'm overfilling it but it's so hard to tell what you're doing seeing the fill hole is the same size as the pump nozzle. I'll try changing my fill...

    2014 ST-L Fuel Vapor Smell and Drip from Canister Vent

    Hello, I'm wondering if there is supposed to be an EVAP update for the 2014 ST-L? It's got just over 7000 miles on it and I'm noticing a few drips after a ride on the garage floor coming from the charcoal canister vent line that pokes out the right side underbelly plastic. I seem to be...

    I just bought I just bought a 2014 st limited

    For $7k I wouldn't complain either! As far as the ignition, I think I'd take that to the dealer seeing there's some programming involved.

    I just bought I just bought a 2014 st limited

    I thought the same thing when I saw it. Those look like earlier fenders to me. Our 14 has the center rib going down them. That black front end seems like it should be white also, shouldn't it? This is ours. Here is a 14 Limited in white.

    Detatched Retina Operation in a couple of hours

    The first couple days after surgery the pain was pretty unbearable for her. It was extremely bad on the trip home from the hospital, so bad she threw up about a mile from home. Fast forward 5 months and she still can't wear contacts which she had worn for the passed 25 year. The white portion...
