I have a question for you guys, when you sit in your car and look back into your mirrors, look at the back door lining up with the rear of the car, mainly the grove it creates between the door and the back at the rear tire bumper. Is it lined up perfectly or do you see it being angled a bit against the rest of the car ?? Mine is a little angled on both sides, meaning it is not a straight line like it should be in my opinion, although it is pretty small. The plastic seals that mold the undercarraige cover with the rest of the car body also are pretty crappy inserted, there is spaces in couple of spots where you can actually see under the car, and the space is bigger on one side then the other. Am I getting paranoid with all these problems I had or is this not right either ??

Well I am talking with tax and all, and generalizing, mine is pretty much fully loaded luxury package, just no DVD and no chorme gas cap. I brought the price down to 34K. I will do just as you say. Now I noticed another problem, the car lift in the back door is making a lot of squeeking noises when i go over uneven pavement lol..... it did that to start with but I adjusted and stopped, when I was at the dealer the mechanic tightened it all the way and now it is doing it again. the cover over the lift is missing 2 pieces of plastic like somone sliced them off with a knife or something...... I really am starting to believe they dropped this baby off the truck lol..... they transfered this car from Long Island and took em like 5 days to get it from there, maybe they were trying to cover up their work O.O or maybe just putting all the defective parts from other cars onto mine :D

Hey dilo since you seem to answer most questions. I dont think this is normal also, but who knows, so many things wrong with my truck I am probably getting paranoid. Every time I drive for a little bit and then get off the highway, lets say i stop at a light. The car starts to lost rpms. what i mean suddenly it seems like it was dropping and then comes back, like it was choking, I think its usually one single drop...... First i thougt maybe its cuz of heat or AC commin on and off, but it happens even when it is off. Do you or anyone else experience this problem ?

No i been lucky so far that i would bring to the dealer it should not be doing that they are set at a certain rpms when ideling
i beleive 1000 rpms should not drop. What type of gas are you using. You should keep all your records from the dealer

I use 87 as suggested...... I guess i got the car with all the faults in the world, its getting more and more ennoying at this point.. every time i get into this car I get upset with everything that is going on in it. No pleasure at all, all very upsetting. I dont think i even want this car cuz there is no way they will make it all right, I want them to replace it.... if it was only so easy.

What does you H3 idle at guys ? 1000rpms as Dilo said is I think more then mine.... If I am not mistake mine idles just above the first line, so aboce 500rpms..... if you get a chance Dilo can you take a look at yours?? when its cold it might be a bit higher, but if I drive for a while, its right about there

Mine revs on start up to about 1200 RPM (Hot) and then idles down to about 600 RPM (Hot)...Course I have a Cold air intake and Free flowing exhaust, I don't know if that makes a difference

So the way it idles seem to right.... now the question is what is with the rpm drop, honestly I can't even tell what it is exactly as when I look at the rpms its usually too late as it happens very fast. It seems like a vibration going through the engine and car as though AC was comming on, but it happens when AC is on and off, this it can't be the AC...... I wonder if anyone else experienced this

I know what you're trying to explain...I think it maybe an issue with the mass airflow sensor (MAF)..I've seen this before...It's a small part on your intake..An Easy fix too....But whatever it is, it aint normal for the spuratic idling..Take it in soon.
