    Griot's Car Care @ Advance Auto Parts

    So I went to AAP today to get some hydraulic jack oil, and decided to do the usual "What Else Can I Buy" walk-around... Found this display just calling my name: Sweet jeebus! The back side of the display had an assortment of their MF towels, and detail sponges. I walked out with a 3 pack of...

    I hear ya. Take a stab tomorrow. Ensure that you do try an alternate DNS server and let me know what happens. You can PM me and tomorrow night I can try some phone support if needed. If you are seeing a reset connection, it can be a number of things and trying to go around your service...

    What is the exact error code that is returned? Also, please try the custom DNS settings I detailed in my previous post. The forum link is different than the main page, and service providers can sometimes have corrupted DNS entries. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    LC Bogo pad descriptions

    They are appropriate for the FLEX, since it is forced action. I believe the recommendation against the larger pads on PC and similar DA system comes from the potential for the pad to have difficulty rotating. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Wheels off! Questions.

    Very cool, thanks for the replies so far. Hopefully the weather permits tomorrow so I can tackle the wheels. I plan on polishing them up, and maybe putting some Collinite 845 to protect. I think my wife is starting to notice that my new hobby is turning more and more into an excuse to visit...

    Wheels off! Questions.

    So, after a nice break in the nasty Colorado weather, I hastily filled my wash buckets up and headed outside to spend some quality time with my truck. My first use of ONR left me pretty satisfied, and claying will be the next major project. It quickly got too cold to continue, but she's clean...

    Favorite Car Song?

    Hmmm so many! I have a playlist that works for both in the car and in the gym hehe. A few: Pearl Jam - Go. (not Why Go). It's a perfect frenetic grunge track which just begs petal to metal. Foo Fighters - Pretender Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Why do men buy their wives black cars?

    *cry* I totally get this thread. My wife drives a Kia Spectra with Dark Bronze (appears graphite) paint. That car is my 'test project' to learn how to remove some serious problems. By her own admission she has no love for the vehicle. She wants a black car next go around, and I'm hoping...

    Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    Whew! So, happy surprise, my packages arrived a day early (but of course at 8 PM!). First order with AGO, so this effectively starts off my new hobby. Unfortunately, I screwed up and waited about 30 minutes too long to click "Buy" on the old BOGO and missed out on some towels! Also forgot to...

    Hey Mike: Got a "new car" article?

    If it's new from the factory does this fall under the 90 day paint curing period? Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Name Change!?

    Relocating shouldn't be too painful so long as you keep the appropriate pointers. If you have a website, consider leaving the main page, metadata, and registration in place for a year or so. Simply change the welcoming information to reference your new home! If you're BBB listed, you will...

    What's the strangest thing you've ever found?

    I read some tidbits of this thread to my wife, and I'm pretty sure she will never agree to assist me with interior detailing should I ever get into the business! But this stuff doesn't write itself! Amazing. Really highlights the importance ethics and a bit of tact in the workplace. Sent...

    got my #1 Van !

    Cosmin, kudos to you! Looks great, and no doubt this will help many people. It sure gave me many ideas! A bit OT but if you haven't been to Llano to eat at Cooper's BBQ, you're missing out! Looks like you're doing nicely in Austin. Best of luck :) Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Hello! Thanks.

    Thanks for the welcomes! I went ahead and placed my first order with AGO (yay free banner!), but of course I just found out about the free sample with order thing LOL! As soon as I clicked Order, I thought of more stuff to buy. Can't wait to see what's in the boxes :) Sent from my SPH-D700...

    Petition to change the dancing banana code!

    LOL! Sorry to bump this, but now the whole 'Im the MAN' thing makes so much sense now. I read the forums using mainly Tapatalk and the MAN thing kept confusing me. So, this apparently is still present! I was wondering how some of you got to be so confident. :D Sent from my SPH-D700 using...

    Hello! Thanks.

    Hello AGO team :xyxthumbs: I've been poking around and reading the forums here for a bit. I'd like to start by saying thanks for coming together and presenting so much useful information. It's really helpful! As for me, well I've always been interested in working with my hands (DIY) but only...
