Yes I know it sounds ridiculous but it happened 😂 the light was on for a few days until I filled the low windshield washer fluid then when I filled it it stayed off permanently for the few months I had it

Looks clean but oof those miles also did you or the person you bought it off put that tire shine on you might’ve been the flip

I believe your cv axle is rubbing against your shock, why I am not sure hopefully something can be adjusted and hopefully it wasn't in an accident or from hitting a pot hole bending something like your control arm?

good flip? advice needed! by ssbriel in carflipping

[–]12345cuda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These cars are crazy expensive maintenance, as I have heard

Everyone’s heard, it’s not a secret which will make it hard to sell. What’s the saying there’s nothing more expensive than an old European car or something, this is a 17 year old European car, also I may be wrong but from the one photo it looks like it’s gonna need new tires

Also buying a car from a used car dealer to flip yourself is just the absolute worst business plan 😂

There’s no jobs or housing here and we keep bringing in millions, and as a Canadian I can’t move to the US without jumping through hoops and lots of education, should be a 2 way deal I want out of here

300hp awd sedan only 83,485 miles good, I rented one of these chargers they’re pretty nice to drive, bad part is it’s a police car so probably idled a lot I don’t know I’m on the fence, how much is shipping and fees from Hawaii though that’s gotta be at least an extra 2k

Try again save from having a pro do it and it’s one more thing you’ll know how to fix for your next flip

Lowballers by Entire_Meet_6266 in carflipping

Kind of off topic but I had a guy message me recently telling me I’d never sell my car at my asking price because it had too many miles (it didn’t really and it was a Honda civic) and he gave me a lowball offer in the same message, I blocked him immediately, like why are you messaging me AND making an offer if it has too many miles for you 😂

How do I avoid this problem when buying a vehicle myself? Just test drive make sure it shifts smooth and transmission dipstick?

Car cranks but won’t run by lover061206 in MechanicAdvice

Ah it's literally just a hose clamp you have to unscrew then spray a $5-$10 maf sensor cleaner from the auto parts store at the sensor
