Well, after being away from the boards for about 2-3 years (since selling my L), I am considering getting back into the family. I have been looking around and found the below link and wanted to see what you guys thought of this vehicle or if anybody knows it. 1. It's at a dealership and...

Hey everyone, it's been a while since I have been on these boards. I sold my L back in August and I sure do miss it now =( How is everyone else's L out there? Fuzzie still blowing doors off people? I am looking to buy a used car and wanted to see if somebody could run a carfax for me. VIN...

I was test driving a used car on Thursday. The salesman sent me off by myself. Didn't copy my license or anything - just said 'Don't worry about it.' So I go for a drive around the block and as I am coming back to the dealership I get in my right lane. Properly signal, slow down and just as I...

I am currently in California but will be making the drive back to Houston, TX on April 15. I am getting out of the Marine Corps. I am currently running 91 Octane (CA) and when I arrive in TX it will go to 93. I am thinking about ordering a mail order tune for 93 Octane before I leave...

So this past Thursday me and a few other Marines apart of the Wounded Warrior Battalion were flown to Arizona to watch three Spring Training Baseball games. We landed on Thursday and went directly to the stadium to watch the Giants vs Angels. The next day, Friday, we went to the Giants vs...

Took these a few weeks ago at the Depot... Sorry for the size...

While cruising at any speed over 50 I notice a 'bogging' type sound. **It only happens when I let off the gas**. Sounds like bubbling water, etc. ALSO, my A/F goes LEAN. Like 17.0...to - - - read out. Not sure why. I changed the fuel filter, etc. Not throwing any codes...what could this be?

Prefer San Diego area. I am having some exhuast issues, particularly leaks. Any shops people know of that can help me with this issue?

I was cruising down the freeway yesterday when all of a sudden I noticed my A/F sitting at 10.0. I was like WTF. I pulled over and checked the guage, restarted the truck and got back on the freeway to head home and it kept doing it. Then the 'Service Engine Soon' light came on. I pulled the...

As much as I love this truck and would love to keep it, I think I might have to let it go. The payments are killing me right now and I am thinking to move to something smaller. I'm not at all sure what to ask for mine. I found another L for sale in San Diego, 03 w/ 78k miles asking $19,000...

I think... When I did my last tune during the summer my A/F was in the 11.6 range. Now I haven't had a winter tune since then since I am about to head back to Texas in 2 months. I noticed the past couple of nights that my A/F was in the 11.0-11.2 range at WOT in San Diegos 55* weather...
