I saw my car one day, and onlye test drove it, next day I bought it, yeah I've had some problems... but I still LOVE my car, its been 3 months since I got it and I swear I'm never going to sell this car.
You got a great and unique machine in your hands. Hope you enjoy it as much as we all do. |

Good luck in finding a mechanic. If you find one who is somewhat competent, but not familiar with the SVX, there are several members who can be reached by phone for techincal advice & guidance. Welcome to the site, and enjoy the ride!

I would first clear the codes and then see if it flashes. It may have been tripped before you got the car. Drive if for awhile and then check the codes if necessary.

Stock 9005 bulb, modified to fit in 9006 plug= 1700 lumens. DO NOT BUY THE SILVERSTARS THOUGH. The bulbs are overdriven and do not last very long. Buy the 'xtra bright' cheap bulbs from Wagner or something. They work great. 70% more light, compared to stock. |

If you still need a new tranny, check out these guys. For the $4000 you were quoted, you can get a stage 3 bullet proof tranny.

I will be searching for a mechanic next week. Wish I could get a Level10 tranny, but its too much right now. I need to have it checked and then I'll be back here with the mechanic's assessment and to get your opinions.
Do you guys and gals ever get tired of us newbies and our questions? I've been looking at the How-To's and checking other posts to try and get the answers before I ask!! |

And we love sharing information, although sometimes it DOES get old answering the same old "how do I clean my headlights?" questions......... You're doing well to try to find the info on your own before you ask. Where are you in Canada?

I'm in British Columbia out here in the wild west.
I cleaned my headlights with Mother's Mag (as per posted info) and they look much better. My husband-NOT a car nut at all!!-thinks I'm going crazy. I zip home during a split shift, buy the Mother's, clean 'em and get ready to zip back to work. Yesterday, it was washing it again. Humm, I should have done the rims while I was at it with the Mother's...now I know what tomorrow's break will bring. Cyn |

Any polish works well. I use Old No 7 chrome polish, because it's a bit more aggressive.
