Need help from the techs

[4drmadness]

1) I recently turned my rotors, and after i turned them, i still get some vibration only at speeds above 70. In lower speeds, there is no shuddering or vibrations. Are the rotors warped?2) I was under my car the other day, and i found out that my front ball joints had a lot of grease showing. Is this normal or should i be concerned?3) My car is dropped 2.2 inches overall, and i know my camber is off. I just bought a rear camber kit. Do you guys think it would be worth it to buy a front camber kit? can i just rotate my tires? I dont have a staggered setup.4) My front driver seat has started squeaking. Can i just used wd-40 to remove the squeakiness?5) I just found out the rack and pinion has started to leak. do you think this is pretty serious? Should i get a new rack, or is there a temporary fix?6) the glue in my upper glove box has started to wear out. The cover is starting to peel off. What type of glue should i use to fix this.

I will be greatful for any techs that would help me out.

1) do you mean you had them resurfaced? or you somehow did it yourself? It could be they were spotted and heat damaged, so no amount of resurfacing would fix them. Or honestly it could be they were cut wrong, or too fast of a cut... 2) Well if you rcar is lowered to the point where a fat guy would cause you to bottom out on a downward frictional force equivalent to a 2 mph wind, then they are proably busted from alll the camber. You should have slightly shorter lower control arms, and I really dont think anything more than 1.5 inches is healthy, since only toe is adjustable on the G in the front. The rear is fine, its fullly adjustable.3)if a front camber kit somehow exists, sure buy it. see #2. I left some in the toilet. flush please. 4)sure? tighten the 12 and 14mm bolts that are visible everywhere around it and spray away, but dont be too generous, too much could just cause more trouble. e-mail me your vin and i'll tell you the specific part number for a new one. which will be expensive5)Rebuilding the rack is a pain and not recommended, since it is a precision formed unit. A new one is recommended, if out of warranty, like the seat track, it will be expensive.6)glue? elmers glue? gorilla glue? tequila??? i've been drinking sorry. uuuuhhh....hold on a second ok i would jus tuse super glue(liquid, not gel since it is thin molded plastic/pleather. If not, you can buy a new glovebox assembly, its only sold as an assemply, you cant buy the lid only sorry bro.7) I think i met your criteria. good night geltnlemen. Being Mexican, heres a joke for you guys: One morning, three Mexicans and three Americans were in a ticket line at a train station. The three Americans each bought a ticket and watched as the three Mexicans bought just one ticket.

“How are the three of you going to travel on only one ticket?” asked one of the Americans.

“Watch and learn,” answered one of the Mexican guys.

All six boarded the train where the three Americans sat down, but the three Mexicans crammed into a restroom together and closed the door.

Shortly after the train departed, the conductor came around to collect tickets.

He knocked on the restroom door and said, “Ticket, please.” The door opened just a crack and a single arm emerged with a ticket in hand. The conductor took it and moved on.

The Americans saw this happen and agreed it was quite a clever idea. Indeed, it was so clever that they decided to do the same thing on the return trip and save some money.

That afternoon when they got back to the station, they bought a single ticket for the return trip and watched while to their astonishment, the three Mexicans didn’t buy even one ticket.

“How are you going to travel without a ticket?” asked one of the perplexed Americans.

“Watch and learn,” answered the three Mexican guys in unison.

When they boarded the train, the three Americans crammed themselves into one restroom and the three Mexicans crammed into another one just down the way. Shortly after the train began to move, one of the Mexicans left their restroom and walked over to the one in which the Americans were hiding.

The Mexican knocked on the door and said, “Ticket, please.”

Sneaky Mexicans….

hahaha, that joke made my day.

1) Ye i had them resurfaced. my friend told me that the my front rotors were less than the minimum thickness. I guess is should get new rotors then2) Should i get new ball joints or new inner tie rods?4) do i have to take the seat out completely or can i jus tighten the bolts i can see?5) time to buy a new rack (i have aftermarket warranty but i dont think they will help me out because of my mods)6) time to buy liguid super glue

Unfortunately the ball joint isn't something you can buy separately. you have to get the whole knuckle. Email me your vin and i'll tell you the specific part number for your car. I'm sober now (still sleepy) so I can think more. If your rack is leaking outside of the center then you can replace the inner tie rod ends since they come with new seals. It'll be cheaper. When you send your vin to me i'll tell you the numbers for your inner tie rod set. and i'll answer the other questions. Or just the last 10 digits of your vin.

How bad is your rack leaking?

If its not bad, you can probably go for a long long time with it. Just be careful to pay attention to your PS level. If you lose too much then you will have problems with the power steering pump and you don't want to have to replace that as well.

The squeaking seat...just push the seat as hard as you can to the left while you retorque the 3 bolts on the back left side of the drivers seat track. This should fix your squeakiness.

Rotors...i told you from the beginning not to turn the rotors but to buy new ones. Nothing but problems. Stock fronts have a lot of pressure and it heats things up to much too quickly.

Also, to fix the upper glove box, i'm sure I've posted the fix I used. Do a search.

[Poyzinous]

Left knuckle:40014-AL550 ($350 to $450)Right: 40015-AL550 ($350 to $450)Seat Track: 87450-AM50A ($700-$900Inner tie rods: 48521-AL500 ($50-$60)left sideRight side: 48521-AL685 ($70-$90)

Inner tie rods numbers are same for all 1st gen G35, sedan and coupe, series one and two.

In case you're curious, upper glove box is like $400 since it includes trim above and the right vent, and its 68560-AC301
