What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

Took it to Metro Infiniti to have the seal on the sunroof replaced...its been leaking and now the headliner is a lil stained.
 
Replace my front driver side hub bearing. Had to buy the ABS Wheel Sensor. It seized in there so bad that I have to drill it out.

there was a little rust on my exhaust close to the tips and it caused a whole, so i had to cut that piece out and put a pipe over top. Damn rust
 
How long did this take you? Glad the part worked out, but I see no coil install yet. :sluggish:
The hub bearing removal takes about 30 minutes, but spend a lot of time trying to remove the ABS sensor without destroying it for over 30 minutes. Finally decided to wrack it with a hammer, still can't get it out. So I have to destroy it by drilling it out. Also the bolt that hold the sensor in place also broke off while trying to take it out.

Took a day off today, guess what I will be doing :simle (2):

My local mechanic that did mine 30k miles ago said one side came out easily but broke-up like when Indiana Jones tries to pick up some fake treasure. Just crumbled. The other one was rusted on like Andy's and there was no way to remove it without breaking it.

Andy, any suggestions on how to protect it from the elements? Maybe put some lithium grease on it every once in a while?

Hey -- I want some food. I bet 2nd gen headlights would go great with dim sum.
 
Spring time Andy.. need a walk through on how to make headlight rolls.. also want to try out Na Na Grill by you..heard it's good.
 
There no "factory" settings. They just screw the parts together.

Oh so it's not like BC, where it was set already?

Ed, what about that Power Lube stuff I showed you a while ago? I saw some guys spraying in a video of an S2000 coils install. I think I will do that.

It's Naf Naf, isn't it? I've been there before, I like it a lot.
 
Yeah the end-user has to adjust the height himself. Just take the original setup and set it next to the coilover and make it the same, then adjust accordingly. Then take an accurate way to measure the distance and repeat the distance on the other side. Repeat for the rear.

The power lube is a good idea, if someone already tried it, even better. These are coated already to prevent rust, but more protection is better. [insert joke here]

Andrew, those 15" rotors look hot, where are yours...=) You have to one-up Andy and get the 8 piston 15" setup.

Andrew is probably done with the install, but I hope he took some measurements for me, lol. Ed, I'm sitting on the BBK still, but I just may do it already because nothing is holding me back.
 
Yeah, I bet he's done. He's probably just uploading pictures and documenting everything =)

I might join you on the BBK, hard to pass up.
