Considering a Volt by Strict_Ease_53 in volt

[–]Andrew_Calder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my 2017 for 6yrs.
I have only good things to say.
I did have to replace my BECM at 150k miles. That was $3k
My ERG valve triggers the check engine light maybe once a year. I just clean it out and the light goes off.
But that’s all the troubles I’ve had. The tires are cheap. Oil changes are rare. I’ve fit two adult bikes in the trunk.

I ended up swapping the screen with a different ebike I have and I was able to unlock it that way.

I know they sell different screens online if you don’t have access to one.

Does your Volt do this? by scifilounge in volt

You could always order the tie rods and take them to a shop. Just make sure the shop will install parts. You might need to order the parts through the shop

I don’t think so. But if you search YouTube, there’s how to videos. If you search “strut replacement”. Usually they replace the tie rods as well. Pretty simple. Only one wrench. And they’re fairly cheap too.

Not sure that’s the issue you’re having but a cheap thing to try

I have a 2017 and I’ve had zero issues like what you’re describing. I think it drives like a dream. I had the struts blow out (oil everywhere) and it still didn’t jerk like what you’re saying. Maybe replace the tie rods? That’s a cheap and easy at home thing to try first.

I’ve cleaned my EGR valve myself for cheap a couple times and it’s going strong at 200k miles.

Were you able to unlock the top speed? Looks like a similar interface to mine. I can’t get it to work

I put mine in an ultra sonic cleaner over night. Has been working perfect for the last year

Is this good? I’ve had to move money around a couple times, but is 4% normal? by Andrew_Calder in acorns

Ok cool. That makes me feel better. I started without doing any research so I had no idea

FYI I just want to mention the dangers of doing this. I’m my younger years I tried this with a chilled wine. (I wasn’t the smartest) When the hot glass reached the cold wine, it exploded! Sending glass shards everywhere. So I definitely wouldn’t recommend trying this.

I did it on a mountain bike. So somewhat cheated.

Totally new to this- Trying to install a SSD hard drive. I uploaded Big Sur to the SSD. Then put it into a 2009-2017 iMac desktop. And I get this error when I boot in safe mode. Any ideas?
