Carrying on with the refubrishment of the car to prepare it for the trip to JHMotorsports. Installed front Bilstein B6s as purchased from FCP; tried to install the rears which were too short. Learned that the Bilstein shock kit I purchased does not work for my car which has Mexico specific parts. US$2,000.00 wasted and additional US$1,200.00 spent purchasing Koni Yellow locally instead. New shocks will take 3 weeks to arrive. All four wheel driveshafts installed. Main driveshaft installed. Front discs and calipers installed. NEW PROBLEM! When engine started, before all this work, each of the four wheel driveshafts rotated slowly at the same speeed at idle. When engine started after this work, at first, front right driveshaft did not rotate. After checking on the brake caliper, it started rotating, but slower than front left, Rears rotating at same speed at idle as front left but front right slower. Then rears do not rotate anymore. Now, none of the four rotate at idle!!! All work performed, including correct torque verified. Software and/or Thorsen issue? No strange noises or smells, but me and my mechanic thoroughly confused. Any thoughts/help would be much appreciated!!!!!
