grounding kits

Grounding kits are good for older cars as you would notice the difference right away because the old car grounding wire loses connection or corrodes. May not notice any difference on a new car but at least there's no worries about the stock grounding connection.

True Dat...A bad common ground on a car, particularly one with a CAN BUS, can wreak havoc all over the car with seemingly unrelated components. Audi TT's at 8-10 years old now are a nightmare.....For instance a bad common ground to the engine temp sensor results in the low oil light and sometimes the ABS light illuminating....!
