Yay, more issues! Hopefully this one with go away just by pulling off and cleaning the idle air control valve on the throttle body...

Well the high idle issue seems to have resolved itself without me touching it, so that's nice lol.

Today I checked the coolant for the first time in a week after the new radiator install. Doesn't seem to be missing any, so I believe she's finally sealed up now after the intake gaskets one week and then a radiator the next...

Then proceeded to take it on a 2 hour drive without any issues at all to the mother in law's house and replace a power steering line on her 2001 Corolla with 390k miles on it. Just can't kill that damn car lol

It's a Pumpkin brand Android unit. And it didn't fit very well lol. Had to trim and open up the corners on the radio bezel to get it to fit over it...

Got a full set of Bilstein 4600s on my lifted LS today. The ride is so much nicer compared to the Rough Country shocks.

did you have to get longer shocks? I’m still running my rc shocks they have 3yrs on them now and 100k km so looking at maybe replacing with something abit softer
