    CD changer ate my CDs

    It seemed like it was already dead because it wasn't cycling at all anymore. But just now something happened that has me confused. I drove for an hour and stopped for gas. The changer started cycling as soon as I turned the key. After letting it finish cycling, the CDs show up and play just...

    CD changer ate my CDs

    I tried disconnecting the battery and pulled the fuse. Still not seeing the CDs. The changer didn't cycle this time after reconnecting the battery. I think you're right about it being jammed. Not sure what I can do short of taking the head unit out and pulling it apart.

    CD changer ate my CDs

    I checked the manual and searched the forums but can't find an answer. I have the stock radio with 6-CD changer in my 2006 fully loaded with CDs. My battery went dead so I replaced it. When I fired up the first time after hooking up the battery, the CD changer started cycling through the CDs (as...

    GoPro Hero 3-Black

    Yeah, did a full format on PC several times. It seemed to freeze less when I formatted on the camera though. And, yes, I unzipped the firmware on the card and it went through the update and restart without problems. I really tried everything. Yeah, I guess you must've gotten a good one. Try...

    GoPro Hero 3-Black

    Should be possible. The camera draws power from a mini usb port, IIRC. If nothing else, you should be able to find yourself a cigarette lighter charger with a mini usb connector. DrTaco - I reformatted the SD cards with the camera and installed the firmware the manual way (although it came with...

    GoPro Hero 3-Black

    I'm surprised more people here haven't had problems with the Black Edition. I ended up returning mine this morning. Half the time it would either freeze up when I turned it on or when I started recording. I also couldn't get a full battery's worth of timelapse shots. It would always freeze up...

    GoPro Hero 3-Black

    Check user reviews on Amazon or other sites before buying. The Black Edition of the GoPro Hero 3 has issues. I bought one a couple weeks ago and I've had it crash on me several times already. It's definitely a finicky piece of hardware. Unsure at this point whether it's going back to the store...

    My first round of mods!

    I'm in PA. You?

    My first round of mods!

    3.73s are going to be interesting after you're done with your build. Found out I have a 3.73 on mine and that explains a lot. 1st gear is pretty much useless. I can't keep traction at any speed. And 2nd only only hooks up if the weather's warm and asphalt is perfect. And that's on a stock motor...

    My first round of mods!

    A mouse went to town on the wires under the intake manifold. I'm having them patch that up. Also having them catalog all aftermarket parts on the car. The Viper Tech who looked it over before I bought it was useless. So far I've discovered it's got Corsa exhaust, some kind of aluminum flywheel...

    My first round of mods!

    Funny, just dropped off mine at Valaya this morning. I didn't see any other 06 coupes there. Curious, though - what flywheel are you getting? Ted was showing me the supposed only ones on the market now (red colored outer rim). He said they've been eating up clutch discs because of poor design...

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    It's a little tight in there but definitely doable. So far the spit and glue fix I did about a year ago (on page 1 of this thread) has held up nicely. I'm sure if you did something like that it would help prevent the separation issue in the first place.

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    I hate to say it but this looks a lot like the one that busted in my Gen 3. I also had the red sleeve "reinforcements" and the sleeve on one side had chipped and the tubing still separated from the plastic elbow piece. I bought my Gen 3 in 2010 so I'm guessing the prior owner had it replaced...

    Vette owners are not a friendly bunch...

    It's all about who's behind the wheel. I recall a few occasions: a wave from a Gallardo, a thumbs up through the sunroof of a 911 Turbo, a thumbs up and wave from a modded C4 Vette after a little run from a stoplight, and today a thumbs up from an MP4-12C. But I also recall being snubbed by...

    Anyone in the California Bay area put on Stripes for the viper?

    I'd also be interested in the contact info for my gen 3. The stripe kits I've found online (e.g. from The Viper Store) don't look right on the intake duct and valance. Not sure if it's even possible to have the factory look with vinyl on a gen 3, but if someone around here figured it out, would...

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    Unfortunately, no, I forgot to take photos before I closed it up. But there are some good shots in this thread: http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/637804-Window-Lift-Making-Cracking-Sound What I did was similar but the tubing I picked up looked more solid than some of the stuff people used...

    Window Regulator -GEN 3/4 Archilles Heel

    I'm not one to post much but I'll contribute since this thread helped me out. For the rubber window guide problem, assuming it hasn't been damaged yet, there are two things to try. 1) Lubricate with silicone lubricant. 2) If the window is not slotting into the guide properly, try adjusting the...
