Time for a restore.

Well my 2001 TL has been my daily driver since Jan. 21st 2001. And at 170k miles it needs some serious work. So I went to buy another car. I ended up getting a 2010 Certified Pre Owned TSX v6 with tech. Tried to trade the TL in but couldnt part with it....my first car and I really feel its worth more to me than the 3k trade in value. So I kept it

My plan is to let my parents use the car do to gas prices. They have a expedition that does not need to be driven on a daily basis.

First I need to change alot of the dash and switch lights. I did the blue LED and they are starting to blow one by one, I tossed out the original bulbs years ago. Does anyone know the part or size of those bulbs,

Second I am getting a scraping noise from rear wheel at low speeds. I took everything off and inspected. Cant find it!!! any thoughts.

Third I feel the car is sluggish now. I normally do Seafoam before oil changes, one can through gas tank. Half through vac line and half in crankcase before draining oil. Tranny fluid changed in Dec 2011. Plugs changed at 145k miles 2 years ago to NGK.

Forth I really need to clean the carpet, any tips?


Cant believe I joined this forum over 10 years ago.... but heres the pics of the new ride...

Some quick shots withe the Iphone.
