  1. if my memory serves me correct, when you pull, there is a socket for overdrive button, it is harder to put it back. so be carefull. i removed it once, to install led bulbs inside gear selector.
  2. i dont think that transmisison can be worn out this fast. only 2000 miles. i drive smoothly and relaxed. i feel problem is in somewhere else. but i really dont know now. i am really disappointed today. about drive shaft,i think it is ok, no vibration on any speed; and it was ok after overhauling, nobody touched it, same shaft installed and it was still ok until this morning. shuddering/vibration returned back. as it appeared 5 months ago. may be, due to complete flushing of oil and fresh ATF make it better for some time and real reason appeared after 2000 miles once more. Increasing shift quality and better acceleration is only side effects of overhauling procedure. main reasons didnt cured in the end.
  3. after overhauling, i was happy with my transmisison but... after 2000 miles it returned back. so bad... it seems problem is not directly related to worn out clutch bands or other elements.
  4. new lugs are different. so i will keep them. a correction, stock wheels are not 98mm in bore diameter they are 100mm.

    I'm going

    happy new life! in our home i always say the last words. -yes my dear!
  6. here is the result i found that,offset of stock wheels are about +26 ET. my new tires are +10. so car has ~3 cm better track now. no rubbing issues.
  7. friends, i went ot machine shop and i made them machine metal hub centric rings. because,the importer of those wheels told me that these were hubcentric. now i solved issue. thank you for your help.
  8. did you check expansion tank? for instance mine is constantly dripping... it is somehow cracked.
  9. mine is doing exatly same. mine was rebuilt 1month ago. so i think it is related to fluid tremperature.
  10. my trasnmission was rebuilt. it was shifting hard 1sn to 2nd, there was vibration on overdrive, now no vibration, but it is still @!*%fitng tight, but little smoother than past. may be it is related to selenoids.
  11. this is good to know. with stock alloy wheels, i was using stock lug nuts, not new ones are different in shape, but a little. if holes on wheel for studs, can't i use stock ones? what to check on wheels and on new nuts?
  12. in a machine with a haweka branded adaptor, they rebalanced tires, and they seemed balanced and no up and down movement while turning. so for now lets assume wheels and tires are ok. about being a lugcentric wheel, today i checked stock wheel, stud holes, i found that the countersunk part is same as new wheels(tapered sides?). hole sides are not flat. but ofcourse wheels have a 5.5 inch 98mm center. is there any other indication to understand these are lugcentric or not. may be i need correct type lugs. also if these are hubcentric and if i find correct ring adaptors, can this cure my balancing problem? or should i try to give these rims back. (i do not want to)
  13. grimgreg, can it be be said that , if lugs are ok, rims are ok, there is no risk of loosing a wheel while moving. can i use nylon or aluminum adaptor rings, to center it?
  14. here you see original diameter of hub 98mm and new wheel center diameter 107.5mm, also thickness of new wheel is 17 mm around lugs.
  15. actually holes are countersung . may be i should use original lugs to fit wheel. new lugs seemed not very well designed to me. unccpathfinder: should i understand from your words, i do "not" need hubcentric ring for perfect fitting becaus of having countersung wheel fitting holes? also, i wonder if center hub carries a load or not.
