Hello peeps, I'm going to try and tell you the short version of my Sub story.

Start
Bought TL4g with tech and ELS, Loved the sound it was great!! I turned the Sub to MAX and proceeded to blast the boom booms all throughout the land.

Then, Sub deck started rattling REALLLLLY bad (almost so bad the speaker sounded blown but it was not)

I took it to Dealer, they said the clip that holds the sub broke; Problem fixed

2 Weeks later problem happened again, took it back they fixed it AGAIN.

problem happened 2 more times, they repaired it a total of 4 FREAKING TIMES

AND IT BROKE AGAIN.... This time they said they would have some "custom" work done to it and send it out to a special shop to do the work (THEY HAD MY DAMN CAR FOR 6 F**CKING WEEKS*

Finally got it back, I noticed the BASS was not as intense, it defiantly did not shake the car/rear view mirror as much but they said it was because they tightened the sub in such a way that it won't break and rattle anymore ever again. (OK)

(3 years go by till now)
My sub i believe is blown it is still moving but hardly any sound is coming out of it (its not completely dead so i didn't bother to check fuses or anything like that) seems to be blown...


I was going to pull it out myself and test it - Then I noticed all the bolts holding it down look like they were sealed or some shit? this does not look right to me how am I supposed to get this sub out now? I'm wonder is this what Acura did when they had my car?? how the hell am I going to replace it now?!?!

What should I do ?!?!?!

looks like they just jbweld the nuts down. Looks like you'll still be able to take the bolts out once you take the rear deck lid off.

ok maybe ill give it a shot then, i was thinking its going to be stuck the way it looks all smelted together

Or you could maybe, just ever so slightly, turn the volume down a notch and pay attention/listen to what's happening around you while operating a 3600 pound machine...

Love your reply to "TacoBello" lol.

Looks like they put an epoxy on the nut. As long it is not on the threads you should be able to remove the bolts.
6 weeks to repair that is absolute nuts.

Use an impact gun on the other side of the pics and it should come out easily.

Looks like they just reinforced the mounting nuts on the frame so it wouldn't loosen with time.
