The harness prolly or most likely comes from Delphi and it probably wasn't spec'd to be taped in that area. There are alot of bare B+ connections throughout the vehicle, but I'm guessing its a crash-safety issue that may have never had a problem, but GM wanted to fix it before something happened.

I bought the redesigned SV the month it came out and have had it for 6 years with 0 problems other than a clutch cable that broke last year after over 20,000 miles of shifts

Every vehicle harness I've ever seem (name any car) uses electrical tape near the end of the conduit.

I can bet that bike was in production for 2 years before it reached the states (as with most of the Japenese stuff).

Ok, talked to my buddy that is a tech at a chevy dealership today. They just got in 3 new ones. The cable from the battery to the starter is too short by about an inch or so. It is in conduit, but *could* rub on the frame and possibly cut through the insulation. It's about a 20 min fix, new cable and boom, all better.
The weights on the calipers... well... no one knows. ![]() After seeing it in person, yeah... I'll take the challenger. It really just doesn't do it for me. |

-rear "shoulders" of the car, too bulky and the roofline flows to the center too soon. They just didn't flow right to me ![]() -Sides of the car seemed too tall -roof height/glass height seemed too short, like the roof was squished down. This could have something to do with the sides seeming too tall. -door lock button in the center console -HVAC controls are... different... to say the least Haven't gotten a chance to drive it yet, but my bud said it's stupid quick, even with the auto. |

So Japan has all the problems which are fixed before it reaches the states.
