im getting 25mpg city and 30mpg highway untuned!!!
Alright so so some bad shit went down with the car recently. I had a bit of an accident (someone cut me off and I slammed into a curb at 25-30mph). Anyway, so far as i can tell all that happened is my camber and caster is off (car pulls right really badly), I cant see that anything is bent. I also warped a rotor. So I ordered some drilled and slotted ones for the front and ceramic pads. Also ever since I had the timing belt done my car has had a lingering odor of fuel after start up and after shut off. I cant tell if its a leak and if so where? Any suggestions? other than that the new megan coilovers are amazing. I dont know how I ever drove without them.
I would say check the return line
I found the leak. Its a brass or copper connection on the fuel line that starts on the drivers side of the fuel rail. maybe 4-6 inches down the line close to the firewall. It seems pretty serious, like a steady drip when the cars idling. Im kinda worried, definitely dont wanna drive it. Anyone else experience this issue?
I dont have my car in front of me but I believe somewhere you can remove and replace that whole line
Yeah, if there is a 4 banger in the yard when I go I can get you one, If not I can get you the part # for it.
I've seen those wheels from time to time while browsing ebay, and I always wondered how they would look on an 8g. From the looks of it real good, especially with the color of your car. Nice!
So ive still got the fuel leak but Ive been working in the meantime. I installed new slotted and drilled rotors, ceramic pads and removed the calipers painted them and bled the whole brake system. Stops pretty well now, a little too well for a car without ABS lol. But its all good.
The busted ass rotor from the accident and the new ones.
mann i miss MIA...looks nice man
