    2006 coupe rear shock nightmare

    By the way the reason you have to tighten the bolts extremely well is that the shock mounts have slop in mounts holes are larger than the bolt itself so will make noise if not tight., then also if the bolts were not tightened at the proper height the rubber will not work right on the a arms my...

    2006 coupe rear shock nightmare

    Has there been a link ever on how to install factory rear shocks on these cars I would think that sometime between 2006 and the present someone would have obtained an original set of factor shocks and installed them especially when the cars where newer and they were available.

    2006 coupe rear shock nightmare

    At 81 it was 6 months ago and my memory just cant remember what I did to get it out. But after that the aldans are much shorter so they just bolted in perfectly holes lined up but when I put the aldan next to the stock shock could see the difference. It takes tremendous pressure to compress...

    2006 coupe trying to install aldan rear shocks but cannot screw the aldan rear shock into the fork the threads are wrong

    Just a reminder about the aldan with no forks. Before you can take it off the fork you have to take the coil spring off. Not hard but just another pain to do. used a mcpherson strut compressor to do it . I did not see any other replacement shocks that come with the forks installed that did...

    OCR module recall info please

    I have an 06 that needs the OCR module replaced. I believe you lift the shift console just enough to get to the screw bottom of gauge cluster cover. Remove the allen screws and the one screw at 6 o clock and remove the cover. I believe you can then remove the radio and get access to the...

    keep my 06 u bet

    I have an 06 coupe that I love. But really liked the look of the new 13-14 interior especially in the beige color. Black may be beautiful but to an old guy it is depressing and black. So I looked into trading my 06 in. The value of the 06 to a dealer is about 40K retail maybe 50 or so...

    06 coupe with engine concern

    Well I finally got around to taking Chuck Tator's advice and install the front O2 sensors. I bought one of those special split sockets for the sensor. Then realized on the left side the starter is really in the way to get a socket on it. I just put an open end wrench 7/8 on the sensor and...
