    The thing is, if you have to go over a speed bump or your driveway you must break. So, the CLUNK comes from the break calipers meeting the break pads. I had the dreaded squeak and my pads were about 50% worn. I changed the pads, cleaned the calipers with some copper coat at the back and both clunk and squeak dissapeared. trinilex........................

    When I drove my IS and stopped at the top of a hill I was suprised the car rolled back. I never experienced that before with my other auto cars. you have to do a balancing act with the break and gas pedal. trinilex...................

    This IS my first RWD experience, and it feels great. When i compare, the IS road handling is much better than the 3 FWD vehicles I owned. I must admit the heavy cornering on wet road (there isn't any snow in the caribbean) without the TRC is scary for me. trinilex.............

    Hey Dr, I am interested in the data :D . Am I to believe it is different from the tracking settings posted on the home page. I have read previous threads concerning IS 200 wheel dynamics and you always seem to confuse me with the technical info . I have noticed the front inner tyres cutting. Maybe the info can help me sort it out. thanks, trinilex...........

    I have a 70L tank and after changing to a K&N air filter and cleaning my iridium spark plugs I get approx 550 km, until the light comes on and the needle is flat on 'E'. I have read that I have another 10L after the light comes on. That works out to about 26 MPG..... I was hoping for more, but .............and also the gasoline I get is 95 RON at best, not very good for the IS 200. Hope that helps, one thing is the car drives like a dream. trinilex........

    OK, flolks. Its that time again, 40,000k service I mean. I need to flush my transmission. Note I said flush, and not drain. Draining from what I have read only gets rid of approx. 2 quarts of fluid. I am going to get the transmission pumped out and flushed. Well>>>>>>>>to the point. Does anyone know the total fluid capacity of the auto transmission of the IS 200? thanks in advance..... trinilex...................

    I got my clear trunk lights from www.procarparts.com. I paid 19 $US. They are not the best quality though. Came with a pair of red bulbs. trinilex....................... :mat:

    I remember a week after having my car I drove my wife Nissan Sentra, I nearly died. The car felt strange. The funny part is; before I bought the lex I had a Nissan Sentra just as hers and the car felt fine.............I just cant go back. trinilex.......................

    As we are on the topic, the area around the gear shifter, should the PRD321 be illuminated? trinilex.....................

    Back to the K&N filter....................I recently replaced my DIRTY oem filter with the k&n filter, cleaned my iridium plugs and reset the ECU. I have re-filled my gas tank twice. The result?..............from 500 to 600 km per tank( approx 28 mpg) :) . I am very pleased with the performance, plus it sounds great. I noticed that if I am coasting (foot off the gas pedal and decelerating) the gear shifts down a little quicker???? Not a problem just that it feels a little different. trinilex..........................
