All, thanks for the replies on the manual, I found one online from a parts yard. Had everything in it except for the nav. NowI'll try to find that.

Smosh, can you give us the part # for the aero bars you have?

All, Just got a "new" 2011 sportwagen. Didn't come with an owners manual or 2nd key. Anyone know where a pdf version of the manual is. Compared to my old 2002. I'm really lost trying to figure everything out...:)

Figured it out. I went to Wal-Mart & bought a marine fuel bulb. I put it in-line before the filter & pumped it up until fuel came out the return nipple on IP. At that point I cracked #3 injector line & fuel came out. It then started right up. So, the IP had completely lost prime. After I turned...

Anyone with some ideas. I need to get my car running... Thanks

Hi all, Well, I'm stumped. Car sat for 7 days. Went to start it & it won't fire. Here are the particulars... 190K miles has been taking longer to start than normal when it sits for 4+ days. run bio 5-30% on an irregular basis Months ago, I found an air leak in fuel lines & replaced them all in...

Joe & family - THANK YOU for hosting a great get together & tour of the plant. The food was delicious. Dan - as always, thanks for your time & expertise. I was bummed it looks like I need a new compressor. Everyone - enjoyed meeting some new folks & seeing old faces. Can't wait for the next...

Dan - you are awesome :)

man o man, I just pulled my back. Will take it easy the rest of the day. Hopefully, I'll be able to move tomorrow... will anyone have a vacuum pump?

I can bring several bags of french fries

Also wondering if anyone has ways to fix a drooping headliner - the cloth is coming loose.

Looking forward to being there. I'm still having issues with my AC. Would love some help troubleshooting it. Will anybody have gauges or other AC tools. I can bring some gauges, but not sure if they are part of the problem. Thanks.

Thanks Dan. I'll try to mess with the connections & see what that gets me

Was able to work on it tonight. I'm more confused now than before. This is what I did - put gauges on, valves closed - started car, fan on 4, ac on, recirc on - checked clutch - it is engaged - pressures @ idle L=5, H=10 - opened valve on can of freon, opened manifold low pressure valve. Low...

Any responses?

Guys, I also have a similar issue. Low pressure side was high, high pressure side was low. I replaced the RCV & dryer. Put a vacuum on it for a day, no leaks. Added 134A - maybe 450 grams. It initially started to cool down (went from 80 to 70 @ the interior center vent) & pressures looked good...

I guess I should add that if I can't get any oil out, should I add any? Maybe an ounce or something like that? Only a small amount came out when I took off head & lines - maybe a teaspoon.

all, got the head rebuilt. Got a few questions: - is there a way to get the oil of the compressor with it still on the car? I took the fill cap out & tried to suction the oil out but couldn't really get any. Any other ideas? - do I add any oil in the dryer? - can I use compressed air to blow...

Got the parts today. Wanted to know if anyone has the torque specs for the bolts on the back of the compressor and the bolts for the refrig lines?

Back from the dead again. My symptoms seem to be the same - high side low, low side high, compressor clutch engages, but doesn't seem to put any load on engine. No strange sounds from compressor. Both fans work on low & high speed (I did the fan fix a couple of years ago) and confirmed last...
