My rearview camera has gone out momentarily a couple of times lately. Usually when first shifting into reverse. Current solution is shift out of Reverse then back in and all is well.

I've tried that a hundred times, wiggling available harnesses, slamming down the boot lid, nothing changes anything. Course, Chinese camera, so maybe KABLOOIE

From the symptoms, it's a camera from the parts department of the US Civil Service motor pool in Washington, D.C.. Why is it a Civil Service camera? Well, sometimes it works, and ....

Death rattle = New chains, guides, tensioners and appropiate gaskets



Where prinary chain was making contacf with head (chain had stretched 3-4mm)

Contact with primary chain

Although i purchased a high quality TSUBAKI kit i had to order oem prinary guides as they werent quite right toi much free play when seated on dowl

The journey begins

On a positive it gave me a goid chance to actusaly see how clean this engine is

All four cams timed and torqued to correct specs (120nm)

Oem primary guides

Timing cover, waterpump, crank pulley, valve covers, throttle body and thermostat housing all back on .

Default Scottish Highlands (A' Ghŕidhealtachd)

I just enjoyed driving my car.

Just resting before exploring it’s potential on an empty, straight road in the Highlands.

My XKR has officially been promoted to daily driver duties (which admittedly doesn't mean much since I work from home, but I still have to run errands around town). I sold my old daily driver (Accord) because the used car market is crazy right now, and I ended up getting more than expected. The XKR will continue to be my daily driver for the foreseeable future. You'll hear no complaints from me.

If you match colors/density of OEM & moded lights - that will be a killer mod!
I really don't like the fact that inner lights are not on all the time.

Once you make - I will order this mod from you (if you can help me). Already have a pair of inner lamps waiting (really!!!!!)

Thanks. Density is adjustable,, i have made 2 diffrent drivers for the leds that is adjustable by its own seperated with a relay so i can adjust brightness off brakelight and runninglight seperatly. And the leds,,, im using same leds that is mounted for the foglights in the assambley,,, Plcc4 smd led 4000 mcd ,, only diffrence that i wanted a 30% angle lens on mine. Yes I think too it will be a good one,, it will tell when mounted and adjusted,, saga will cont,,,,,,,

Will you have the dual reverse light / dual fog light functionality with this mod? Or will you still just have 1 separate reverse light and 1 separate fog light?
