The only way to verify that info is taking the VX for a tough road test,probably the owner loves the VX as much as the rest of us. :rolleyes:Quote:

The guy tells me it's not that unusual with TOD systems. I'm wondering if anyone on here has had this problem, and what did they do? I need the cheapest answer at this time. Oh, I'm not really sure I understand how this "thread" thing works, so if it's not too much to ask, I would really appreciate replies sent to my email - Jabo26@aol.com. Thanks for you time.

Hello fellows:)
Hi my name is Shawn. I first encountered this vehicle just this past year, yea were have i been? I dont know but can say im loven it! This VX is a vehicle that should have never been removed from the market:( I first saw this RAD looking thing on the side of the HAmburg turnpike in jersey( if anyone knows where well..), i at first thought it was a bit retro looking a bit of a Space Moon Mobile, Well it sure is out of this world! I love the power, look, and most of all talk about unique.. absolutly wat i needed! well i hope i might be able to get to meet some fellow VXer's soon. I have been offroading for a long time but i usually use my Toyota Tacoma. Thats another vehicle i will say with a lot of off road carisma.. but knothing as charming as my VX, bye far... Well please hit me up, anyone i would love to hear bout your upgrades and stories, well hope that does it. See all you someday? Hopening:)

Hi jabo,my best advise is having the opinion of different shops to verify any past diagnostic.That way you can really know that is the TOd what is causing the related noise.Quote:

I've had my "99" Silver VX since this past Fathers Day (2009). What a gift. I fell in love with one that I saw in a used car lot about 2 yrs ago, but don't tell my wife. She wouldn't be happy if I fell in love with someone else. I drove 3.5 hrs to purchase this one, worth every mile. Everyone here seems to be great, nice to be part of the VX Family.
Welcome to the site !Quote:
