Wheel bearings will need replaced for a number of reasons, the most common being normal wear. If there is a loud metal-to-metal noise while driving, it's likely that the bearing has failed. A simple way to check your bearing is to lift the wheel off the ground and try to move the tire back and forth, by pushing the top and bottom of the tire in. If there is play, this commonly means the wheel bearing has failed.

We don't know how you feel about it, but trusting your engine's most vital fluid to a plastic filter housing seems like a leap of faith. In fact, after repeated heat cycling and several oil changes performed with pliers and other makeshift tools, the original plastic filter housing body gets pretty ratty. To give back to the customers, we've decided to throw in a MANN-FILTER with purchase! Why not install a smart looking billet aluminum housing paired with a MANN Filter, and take the guesswork and risk out of filter changes.

ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. Even when new, factory style fabric mesh lined rubber hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard braking, whether it be highway panic stops or threshold braking at the track. Our lines are braided with stainless steel mesh, affording expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and more direct pedal feel.

Due to the location of your factory ignition harness and its close proximity to the exhaust manifold, it is common for the factory harness to become brittle and crack apart over time due to years of heat cycling. This can lead to misfires, rough idle, lack of acceleration, and decreased fuel mileage. ECS Tuning recognized this issue and put our R&D team to work to design an Ignition Wiring Replacement Harness Kit. This enables you to avoid repairing individual wires or buying the very expensive OEM engine harness.
