i have been on this forums for soo long and finally i got my GG EVO IX yesterday, and all i can say is that thing is so fun to drive. can't wait to brek it in and i am glad to be part of this community

 

congrats

 

Welcome to the Evo side.....

 

Gratz man now time for some mods

 

Awesome man, congratulations and be safe.

 

Does your IX have a rough or lumpy idle? In other words, will it idle smoothly, then have a mild hiccup or shudder then normalize again?

 

no it doesn't

 

actually the car only has 13 miles on it right now so i cant really tell since i drove it twice

 

Congrats, Man. I also waited for a long time to get my IX. Enjoy your car and be safe.

 

When you get a chance, sit in the car with the windows and doors closed. Let it idle till it's warm. Feel the engine vibration... let me know if it sometimes hiccups, producing a mild vibration or shudder which you could feel sitting down. My 2006 EVO is brand new as well, with less than 270 miles on the clock and I've noticed this. A few people tell me it's normal, but I've never seen new, non-modified engine do this. I don't have any check engine lights, but purchased an OBDII scanner anyway just to give me peace of mind...

 

NO PIX = LIES... j/k man, congrats bro. Like I said, you deserve it and more... I wish you the best man.

Now hurry up and get some d*** pix up!!!! you're freakin useless!!


Thanks,
Mark.

 

Welcome to the family!! lol amstel78 some evo do have that idle problem, mine does it, my cousin's evo does it too, he's got 3800 miles and i got 7400 miles on my car, it has been doing that for a while, it's normal.

 

sorry. double post!

 

There is no turning back now, your SCREWED!

 

OK. That's what a few people have said, but for some reason... still just doesn't feel right to me. I guess I got spoiled by the smoothness of the S54 and BMW engines in general.

BTW, congrats on your IX as well. I miss my M3, but have a blast driving this!
