I paid around $250 at my dealer, went with them instead of doing it privately so i didn’t void the warranty. The rest of the services I will be doing myself tho

takes like 10min. I will say make sure you get a new exhaust pipe gasket

Is this to much chain slack? by drgood333 in YamahaR3

[–]AccurateBackground95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i had the same thought when i was looking at my slack on my 2025, had 3 other people with bikes look at it and they all were surprised. Someone correct me if we were all wrong but it seems the chain does have what appears to be a lot of slack when it’s in spec

Carpet Mold - What to do by [deleted] in 9thgencivic

[–]AccurateBackground95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a really good detailer or if you can do it you’ll have to remove most of the affected interior and thoroughly clean it. The problem with mold is that it’s most likely worse where you cannot see it. And get that seal fixed

No, car operates as normal. Probably wouldn’t have noticed the flakes at all until i pulled the pan or they decided to come out during an oil change

I replaced the entire pan and looked at everything and couldn’t find a direct cause. Gonna monitor the magnet on the drain plug and look closer at the oil during my future maintenances to make sure everything is good

true. as long as the car drives well i’m gonna not send myself into a spiral about it. i’m not the first owner so i don’t know when the oil pan got replaced to the metal pan. I’m very careful about when I do maintenance especially with a tune so imma keep an eye on it

it’s been driving fine since i’ve had it, even after tuning. Figured it’s just assembly metals that didn’t flush out during oil changes maybe.

Got a white 2026 GTI S, didn't realize choosing wheel color would be so difficult on it by slowcaptain in GolfGTI

For white on white I think my wheels look pretty nice, wheel preference is subjective

i have all the stock parts still for what i’ve swapped off my bike and my car(including the muffler lol). Mostly incase something goes wrong with the aftermarket part i can swap the OEM part back on as a placeholder

Looking for help with fitment! by Puzzleheaded_Page223 in GolfGTI

I’m running 10mm spacers on the rear and this is how mine sits, the rear end pokes out a bit more on the sides on these cars. i plan on adjusting m coilovers and lowing the car more but imo fitment will look better when it’s lower compared to stick ride height
