DCAWD Meet Monday 10/18/10 - Hard Times

Post by Sabre »

Hello all,
The next meeting of DC All Wheel Drive will be on Monday, 10/18/10 at 7pm. We will be meeting outside for a little while, then going inside to grab some grub! While we are outside, please stay out of the right of ways. No standing in the road and such, just stay in between or in front of the cars :) If hoods open, only leave them open long enough to do your business.

Hard Times is located at:
6362 Springfield Plaza
Springfield, Virginia 22150

Link of map: here

Most up to date information found in our forum here.

Let me know if you are coming so that we can try to keep an accurate count.

Note: This is an AWD, we meet no matter what Mother Nature throws at us! Even if you do not have a AWD car, feel free to come!

^^^^ ROFL. Love it. "Date Duty". I feel like I will need to use that now at some point. "Yeah, sorry I can't hang out with you tomorrow... I have date duty." LOLZ

It was nice seeing you guys,

Think I found the issue (or atleast part of the issue) with the scraping sound.... My front mudflap is getting bent behind the tire.... I had to fix it this AM.... Adam is going to take the front mudflaps out this weekened to see if that solves the problem... Darrin, thanks for your help! I was pressed on it being the rear tire cuz that is where I thought the sound was coming from.

Good seeing everyone as always :)

Anna: I've been wrong about where a noise is coming from on my car too. With the chassis being a great conductor of sound waves, where a sound is coming from is difficult to track at times! Very sorry I forgot my laptop BTW! Maybe I can stop by or you can come over some night and I can take care of it for you. I also forgot to give you spotted cards!

RallyArmor, right? I had this happen on both of my front flaps on my '08. They redesigned the bracket at some point to fix this issue but won't sell the new bracket on its own (they want you to buy a complete new set).

they should be the updated ones then, depending on where you bought them and how long they had them sitting on a shelf. I think they replaced the fitment last fall so its not unplausible for you to have gotten an old set.

Good possibility that they were sitting on their shelves for quite awhile.

I'd pick up the phone. This is a known issue with RA and Mach V knows about my trials/tribulations dealing with the same.
