WTF is that??? Any help would be appreciated and rewarded with some sort of liquor or beer.

Yep 9k can tell you all about the glove box. Sounds like you have a VDI issue and that could be causing the cell. Have you pulled the code? Ill be around to wrench this weekend for sure.

I'm down for whatever. I need to clean house and organize my garage and new work bench. I got my bench grinder chop saw, and the vise mounted up already and I traded in the extra bench grinder I got for Christmas in a belt sander

Now all I need is a drill press, lathe, pipe bender, welder, welding table, hydraulic press, water jet, CNC machine, sheet metal bender, etc., etc.

, no wonder I never noticed it. Good to know when I replace my studs again (with ARP's). I wish I had know, it would have saved me several hours of hammering.
