What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

So I changed both front hub bearings, thank god for impact guns they make the job way easier! Anyways the bolt for the speed sensor that goes into the hub bearing broke so I had to drill and tap it then replaced with a better stronger screw. Why would they use such a cheap grade on something like that, it's a recipe for a headache if you don't have the right tools. Luckily I did have the right tools.

Nice job. Lucky that your sensor didn't seized in the hub. My was so bad that I have to put a drill bit through the $130 sensor.

Got my invidia exhaust on. Now she stinks everytime I drive her, can't wait until its all broken in, then I will take a good video of the sound.

Pictures to come as soon as I get my roof racks on, and get her de-badged (been super lazy about this because I dont have adhesive remover at home).

Nice how do you like it so far?

Its good, did about 175km on it already. Has a nice sound at start-up and idle. Little bit of drone around that cruising RPM range, but this does always seem to be there for me. Then at WOT its brilliant.

Loving it so far, I was doubting my choice of exhaust tip (single layer titanium burnt tips), but after getting them on and seeing it I am really digging it.

Those tips are sick, good choice
