Looking for pictures

[2002tiiguy]

Does anyone have a picture of the complete underside of an all original unmolested ix? specifically looking at the front where that plastic dirt shield is. either im not searching the right thing or no one still has it on their car. I know its a silly thing, but the more i put this car back to stock, the more i find myself enjoying it. i also like driving through obscene amounts of snow and think that might not be a bad thing to have under there keeping snow out of the belts at least to some degree.

Thanks in advance,
Hunter

my car never had it.. I've never seen one either. Always wondered if it even existed!

lol me too because the picture of the part doesnt seem like ittl actually fit on the car. if not, im making one out of a piece of aluminium

Are you looking for the splash shield for the accessory belts?

[nando]

yes. has anyone ever seen one for an ix? I haven't, but there are holes/mounts in the subframe for it.. so you'd think it existed.

I had one in my very first ix I bought a few yrs ago.. I can probably dig up the receipt from when I bought a replacement and get the part number

I have one but its been damaged. There are 2 plastic nuts on each side that bolt it up under the wheel wells and some tabs the slide in under the front subframe.

Here is one that isnt damaged. I think it is called a splash guard.

I have it on my E30, and had a spare one that I recently put on my buddy's iX I sold him.

I'll try to snap a pic when I do an oil change this wkend.

i have one too.

I have one, but out of the 8 spots that it bolts to the car, 4 are gone. Just the 4 speed nuts on the inner wheel wells still exist.

lol they are available and i could order one from ecs i just wanna be sure my $90 is worth it before i go order a shiny new unbroken piece of plastic. if its not worth it im thinking 1/4" aluminium :devil:

interesting video ,havent seen this one before ,need someone to translate the german for us . bit with the silicone fluid on the turning plates helps describe how the VC works a bit ,and a nice visual of the Sun/planetary gear torque splitting effect. and interesting to see at the end of video the ABS idle up kicker (old style vacuum actuator) that must have been in the development or early model cars (handled with the Idle motor in later cars)

love the RWD VS AWD up the slippery grass slope
and a bad VC on a 2wd dyno

Yeah, that was a cool video
