Cussed out my cd player anyone else have trouble with their 6 disc cd changers? Omg mine hates reading some cds

 

My one disc can be tempermental when it gets really hot outside. I have to get the player to cool down and then I can play cd's again. Then yes, some cd's just will not play no matter what, no scratches just won't play then they eject themselves.

That crap isn't even funny man- before I moved I was watching my friends kid one day (he's 7) and he was trying to find something to watch on TV and he passed by some show that had a person on like a mid-90s cell phone (not the comically huge 80s ones) and my friends kid asked what it was and he did not believe me that it was a cell phone-

 

 

"That isn't a cell phone Mike. Phones can play angry birds, you know that."

Trust me I'm the same but what I was getting at is how I don't like seeing what was cutting edge when I was a kid being considered obsolete. Makes me realize I'm getting old. :lol:

My truck has been sitting in the driveway at home since April 15th while I'm away for work. I won't be home again until the 22nd of this month. In the meantime though I've ordered new Bilstein 5100's, a new 2012 LTZ grille shell, Recon tailgate light bar, new LED reverse lights, 50w HID ballasts to replace my 35w ones, and just now a bunch of stuff to do a full detail (Flex DA, pads, sealant, and wax). When I get home, the front and rear bumpers are getting powdercoated, everything is getting installed, the windows are finally getting tint, and the truck is going to the body shop to get the back of the bed fixed. (I had some boxes of flooring hit the front of the bed, bending it against the back of the cab after a hard brake when somebody cut me off). So a lot will be changing shortly. Its killing me to have all this stuff sitting at home waiting to be installed and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere in Wyoming.

I've never owned a vehicle for longer than a week without putting aftermarket HU in it LOL. I can't stand factory HU's they drive me nuts!! My new JVC arsenal is unreal, Bluetooth, navi, DVD and I can run my iPhone from the HU...just plug it in with an actual iPhone cord directly to the deck. I can go thru all my music without touching my phone!! Also has amazing frequency, sub-sonic adjustments. Amazing head unit.

Drove another 350 miles with the wife, DIC shows 17.5 MPG and with all of the two lane roads and stop lights I feel that is pretty good. We were to have rented a mid size car for the week but I told the wife NO we will go in my truck. Right now the bed is over half full to the bed cover with treasures she has bought.:jester:

      In the 6.6 gas thread, I added information in my fluid change thread about these gauges and temperatures. With very limited data, it so far looks like ~30 degrees difference between front and rear.

      Fluid Change Questions

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I know; crap pictures.   Anyway, as a finale of sorts to this thread, I had replaced both differential covers and since they had the capability of adding temperature probes, I did that. These are MaxTow analog/digital gauges with stepper motors. They'll flutter around like crazy for a moment and start at a nominal 100 degrees Fahrenheit.   I drove a 30-mile loop to the grocery store, averaging 70 MPH (as much as 80 to see if there was a quick spike in temperature. The air temperature is 102 (ambient ?). but the first pic is 7 miles into the trip. The second is getting back into the truck after leaving the store; differential temperatures dropped about three to four degrees in 15 minutes. The third pic in on the road to my house, about a mile away.   In that run, I saw a high of 150F on the rear differential, and 121F on the front. I'm sure a longer drive or towing will see higher than that, and when that happens, I can update the observations.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Fully warm, coolant temp >194, closed loop.   Run time can be anywhere from just reached operating temperature to having driven 30+ miles.   The O2 chart (which is a feature I just discovered after reading) for the bad idle seems to be "most" of the time. For the little time I've been watching it (scanning and driving! watchout!) I can't seem to isolate any cause or condition yet.   It definitely idles rougher sometimes than others and so far what I've seen is the rougher idles are always rich. But not enough to set a CEL.   In other news I replaced the starter solenoid. Everything on this truck is such a PITA. Starter "snout" is mangled up with the torque converter inspection cover which is tangled up with hard cooling lines and the driveshaft. But I got 'er done without too much swearing...I just go into everything now knowing it's going to be a frustrating mess.   The starter solenoid replacement kicks off the next round of work: AC, injector rebuild, cat, exhaust. I'm just going to do it all. But first:   I don't know what my fuel pressures are. I can't definitively say the issue is the injector without first verifying fuel pressures and any leakdown. I "rented" a test kit ($199.99 at O'Really's ...intentional misspelling). They don't "rent" tools anymore, they charge you for the tool and then you return it when you're done. No joke. It is listed as a rental on the receipt but the guy told me there's no difference between renting and buying  now, you just return it when you're done and they refund the credit card. Mmmkay, whatever.   I will rule out fuel pressure issues (too much), and any leaking (that's how I'll know the problem is inside the intake). I think someone said the return line could be plugged or not flowing and that could cause high fuel pressure (and too much fuel being pushed through injectors). I'll cross that bridge if I get high readings.   As of now I'm ready to tear off the intake cover, extract the injector, and have it sent off to be rebuilt just so I can rule that out.
