Your window will wind down a bit when u open the door?

I dont think e46 has that feature by default.

Then turbo the power window motor lah...
Just imagine window is halfway up and the boost kick in...

I find your sense of humor, intriguing but no thanks. Don't need to boost the windows.

Of course it will, its a coupe, and it will automatically wind up when close the door.

Thanks,

Lets say if u open the door so quick...i am talking abnormal quick speed on purpose, will the top of the window snag the weather strip on the car frame?

I always wonder about this.

So far no matter how fast i tried to open the door, it never seems the glass snags the weather strip or frame. But i won't try any faster, as the the glass itself is super expensive, and i love my car.

Hi All,

It's me again, so i have a slight issue with the 1JZ E46, seems the RPM will drop dead itself when i stopped at traffic for too long. The engine is very alive and the speed, fuel indicator, and water temperature is operating. Only the RPM will drop dead by itself and CEL will turn on. See picture for clearer picture, in the picture, my car is still alive with A/C on and radio is on as well. Car still drives fine and nothing strange seems to happen. The issue can be solved by simply restart the car again.

BTW I am using Dakota Signal Interface to mate the cluster with 1JZ. No lose wire or anything is found. What could it be the issue ?

Thanks,
Ken

In your picture, why has the clock reset? Did it do so on it's own?

Most of the cluster’s functions are not working , same goes to clock.

Thanks,

Ah, I thought the CEL triggered a reset

The CEL only appears when the RPM stops working, like i said the issue can be resolved by simply restart the car. Of course i hope there is a remedy for it.

do you have any volt meter to monitor voltage issue to see if it related

At times when my car's voltage drop by 12V, this will happen, however i can't find relation to the RPM.

to drop to 12v is kinda low. how's the grounding for your car?

Grounding's good, mechanic thinks that the Fan and AC is draining too much power from the alternator. Car runs perfectly fine without AC, occasionally when cooling fan kicks in, the voltage can drop from 14.1 all the way to 13.1v ...
