    Monel key

    I have a 1998 with a factory security system. I have always been under the impression that the monel key doesn't work for my car for some reason. I'm revisiting this assumption. Can anyone shed light on whether the monel key will work? I don't know if I have a factory immobilizer.

    Hey gang. The car came with CF overlays on the center console. God knows how long it has been in there, but if I want to remove it, what is the best way to do so without damaging the paint? If I had to guess it has been on there for 10+ years. Heat gun then peel? Thanks in advance.

    Hello! I did my requisite research on Prime before posting, but after ~3 week holiday season and coming home to temperatures that range from 30F - 60F, I cranked it for the first time, stuttered, then started. It stayed on for about 10 seconds, then with low idle, shut off again. I cranked...
