Be warned. Tastes absolutely horrible, but it works.

Kind of disappointed I haven't lost weight much. I haven't ate anything but 1/2 a bowl of soup since I got sick a few days ago

Figured that would be a upside to this but hasn't been.

So this is how it starts. It was just a tiny dash on the screen and within two weeks it starts to spread like cancer.

Mine had large splotches all over the place when I took it out.

Are you going to do the repair yourself or send it out?

It was perfect timing as I will be installing my Android unit.

Works out for you then. I like the stock system, it does everything I need it to.

Same I don't hate it either. With AUX input I didn't need anything else but really liked the iBUS app for all the coding especially to run the AE as DRLs and auto fold mirrors so making the switch.

One is left twist one is right so they slip past each other.

FYI the ball unscrews you can use a spring that fits the shaft tightly.

Can we get the ebay link? So many options and sizes and I don't want to order the wrong ones again.

Died at 128k. No warning nothing. Just died on her while she drove down the street and would not restart.

My wife's Replacement pump died at about ten months old, as I pulled up to the house! I turned off the car after a drive, wife asked me to reposition the car to align with the sidewalk and it wouldn't restart.

Fortunately under warranty, I just had to send a picture of the broken one (serial number) to get a replacement.

I pulled the pump out and put in her car, then I put hers in my car to use as a cork so my car wouldn't fill with fuel vapor while I was waiting for the replacement.

Now I have the replacement and she has the original from my car so yikes that one is on borrowed time. I think I'll be taking a preemptive strike on replacing the pump only then I'll keep the still working 170,000 miles pump as an emergency spare.
