Maybe there's a way to force it into readiness with a Gap tool? Sometimes the drive cycles have a finicky set of parameters. Fuel level between X and Y, engine start temp at something something Centigrade, sustained driving at 43 mph for 11 minutes. etc.

FWIW the Traverse map is available for Gaia, I use it sometimes just to find fire roads with campsites in North Georgia (there's POI notated along the route). Could probably poke around with it and locate nearby hotels or cabin rentals, like when it goes through Suches for example.

Yup. Pretty sure when I did this with Stu years ago we passed a Crown Vic on Tray Mtn.

Tacomas have IFS. Isn't the Grenadier solid front?

ICE engines (especially diesels) are also more efficient and emit less when they run at a constant RPM rather than going through acceleration cycles. The Edison trucks operate on this principle, a smaller-than-typical diesel engine for a semi truck that comes on and runs at a set RPM to power a...

TPMS sensors have been a federal mandate since '07, and they are supposed to trip at 10% variance from whatever the set pressure is. There's certain things you just can't do without these days if you want to build a vehicle and sell it to the public.

The one in Atlanta looks like it's part of a Nissan dealership. Maybe the dealer chain (Regal) bought franchise rights or something and added them in to an existing location.

Are they using BMW dealers for the dealer network?

I can't remember if D2's behave this way or not, but if the crank sensor is functioning properly I'd think you would see the RPM needle move while spinning it over. The fact that it won't communicate through the OBD port has to be the smoking gun here.

I haven't seen this truck in person, but I have met/purchased from the seller before and can vouch for him being great to deal with.

The trick with this is getting them off in one piece. Often they're so brittle they just shatter as you try to remove them.

I think Amsoil has been doing them in bags like this for a while now.

Sarek Autowerke in Richmond. They’ll come pick it up, too. They have a tilt-deck trailer with a winch.

Damn. I’m glad I went ahead had him make me that D1 Slimline last year then.

How fresh are the Defender front calipers/rotors?
