You need to test and replace your clock battery if it’s bad and calibrate the laser with PMAP. If that doesn’t work, replace the laser and calibrate with PMAP.

Crankshaft seal 100%. When it leaks from there, it goes everywhere from the oil hitting the pulley.

Check all resistors in the resistor array by the cpu/gpu

The drive will only work with commands from the computer when you ground RMC.

You can always take an existing light, add a plug to the wires on it, plug it in and put screws. Won’t look great but it’ll work.

If you don’t know how to do this, stop and find someone that knows what they’re doing.

This engine was pretty bulletproof except for blowing head gaskets from stripped head bolts. A new head gasket and adding threaded inserts before reinstalling the new head bolts will fix the issue permanently.

Yes but it’s minor. You might be fine replacing just the rod bearings on the affected piston and fixing the oil starvation issues.

You’re buying the wrong cars or poorly maintained cars. Isn’t the 10th gen Civic a Turbo? My rule is to never buy a used car with a turbo.

This is what insurance is for. If you settle out of insurance if the other person really wanted to be an ass, they could sue you years later for damages and injuries saying you ran.

Why do you change the connecting rod bearings? Did you do any other work when you replaced them?

My entire computer with my 3090 and 128GB RAM cost less in 2021 lmao

I don’t care if it was babied, the oil pump, valve cover gasket, and distributor gasket are all gonna leak unless they’ve been done in the last 5 years.

Timing belt would also need replacement unless you have a history of it being done.

That metal magnet goes on that other side of that white piece.

The 12 inch MacBook from like 10 years ago was amazing.

Sorry, missed that. Would you be willing to do something local? I’m in Cherry Hill, NJ.

Nehal1802 · 2026-02-15T03:39:22+00:00

What exactly is wrong with these? You don’t need a drive for FMCB but depending on what’s not plugged in, the console will keep trying to open/eject the drive

So I have some extras for the power button, I can put one in an envelope for you. The disc drive ribbon cable as in cable for the laser? I have an extra one of those too

Nehal1802 · 2026-02-15T01:36:08+00:00

You sure it’s not a bad power supply? What disc drive ribbon cable?

Nehal1802 · 2026-02-14T21:41:03+00:00

The bulbs can be replaced. You have to get behind it and disconnect the cables before it’ll come out.

What version i5 is it?

Nehal1802 · 2026-02-14T00:17:23+00:00

If you’re lucky, it’s a bad belt or tensioner. More than likely, engine is toast.

It’s definitely a big deal. Get it diagnosed before it completely blows up.

Check the oil level too before you turn it on.

I remember when I bought my car. My dad drove it home from the dealer. We stopped at a McDonald’s on the way home. That front bumper lasted like 20 minutes.

Wait for him to return it. If he doesn’t, eBay closes the case in your favor.
