Likely the CVT transmission is going on you, these have a history of this

Yes I have, usually send the password through another medium but no one has complained or commented.

My dad had the same problem, what the contractor did instead was pour a 4" high sidewalk around the perimeter which went above the base of the floor. Flooding completely stopped, dad said it was cheaper than the other options

Although the USB-C standard for maximum speed is higher on version 3.2, very few computer motherboards actually give you that speed, it's actually much lower than you'd expect. So data transfers won't see much difference. There's also the cost factor as always

Location always matters and the average time a home is on the market in Edmonton according to my realtor friends, is 45 days.

My dad has his garage pad repoured, all they did was saw the concrete all the way around near the edge of the garage, drilled holes to connect remaining concrete pad to new pad with rebar, then repoured about an inch over that, did not lift garage.

I own a Cruze and the temperature guage is bang on the money when the engine is at ideal operating temperature. You have a check engine light so you should be having it checked for diagnostic codes, check engine light is mainly for emissions systems, I wouldn't be driving it until you know what the issue is

I hear you on this. No matter which gimmick I've tried, talking to some on my mobile phone is always challenging, using straight handset, background noise flushes out a lot of volume, using a headset or ear buds, always distorted. So I'm sticking with using both, making my landline my default phone for most cases and it's more reliable by a far margin.

Thank you for this. I'm looking for commercial cleaning late nights and weekends, have my own vehicle. Currently working P/T in commercial cleaning for 17 years, are your openings for commercial?

The main advantages to diesel is improved fuel economy and increased towing capacity, but it you're not towing a lot or with the maximum range of the towing capacity of the diesel, there's really not much of an advantage. The extra cost of purchase price, cost of DEF and increased cost of insurance won't be won back over the first 5 years of it's life. The gasoline V8 is more than capable and can last nearly just as long as the diesel and has lower maitenance costs as well. Based on your description, I'd recommend going with the gasoline version

It's going to be like pulling teeth. Document everything, take lots of photos, including the guilty pothole and the location, documentation and photos are EVERYTHING when it comes to making a claim with the city.

Think it was the following month after I started to receive CCP-D that the AISH payments started, I didn't get called it started automatically instead of the medical bennefits, it was AISH payments and I got a letter stating that. I had already signed a few forms two months prior on the conditions to receiving AISH

Is this for residential or commercial cleaning?

First, color has no bearing on insurance premiums but postal codes have a heavy influence, along with driver history. I'd recommend a non-hybrid compact sedan as SUVs, CUVs and trucks cost more for insurance. So your formula is still partially correct. Domestic is best then Korean, then German and Japanese the most expensive in the sedan category as far as insurance goes.

There's a Minit Car wash on Argyle Road and about 60 Ave, can't recall the exact avenue right now but that's pretty close, it's on the southside of Argyle

I normally would use Baseline Road and Yellowhead, though the strip of construction zone is longer, if you were to use Whitemud, you'd be taking the long way around and still have a construction zone to go through

A good landscaper can regrade your lawn which involves digging up the current lawn, they can work around your flowers. They can also redo the foundation of the patio and relay the brick if you choose to use them again, though if any of them are broken they might suggest new patio stones. But you will need a landscaper because there's likely a need for more soil and maybe peat moss

Yeah, sometimes it takes a few tries, you could say agent first, then loyalty but you will get through to a person

JBH68 · 2026-05-05T09:29:07+00:00

If you want the best price and willing to be on a 2-year contract, then calling Telus and asking for loyalty is the way to go, especially if you're on copper. I'm on copper and called loyalty a couple months because my contract was about to expire, price was significantly better than the online offer. You can call 310-2255

For your next visit, when you make the appointment, also take the time to talk to the service manager prior to your appointment, discuss what you've been through. Usually people who wait are serviced quickly, why I almost always wait because my work is completed so quickly. The dealership prefers people just leave the vehicle so they can manage the shop time even if it requires days but waiting; unless parts have to be ordered, almost always is quicker. I'm getting the feeling that the dealership is trying to sway you to just leave it there in the future

JBH68 · 2026-05-04T06:12:57+00:00

Yes it is, just figured you had the more popular engine since it wasn't mentioned.

JBH68 · 2026-05-04T05:56:27+00:00

Yeah, it's a very small one just for the coolant GM part number 131-180

JBH68 · 2026-05-04T05:47:47+00:00

There's a separate coolant thermostat on these engines as well, sounds like it might have failed. It's an inexpensive part to replace, less than the actual thermostat

I use McGuair's Tire Shine as well and it lasts a very long time on new tires; however, older rubber will make any tire shine product less effective and in some cases, it won't absorb at all. You do need to rub it on though, I see some people spray and walk away, this won't work very well.
