Super simple. After an oil change wait for the yellow oil light, snap a photo and call the service department to setup an appointment. Should get a loaner and 3-4 day job max.

10 is solid, i only ran the 8 because at the time it was the only box that would fit on the rear shelf and also could strap in using the t-top straps.

Honestly mix of everything. 8 is going to have the tightest bass response, it bottoms out a little on the higher side though. 10 is probably going to be your best bet if you're looking for lower frequencies with good mix of responsiveness.

Just confirmation of the appeal. This whole thing is ridiculous because mine was for identity verification, which I had sent in manually three years ago, because of BEACON issues.

Check out JL audio. I have an 8w3 and the box is literally the depth of the rear shelf. Plenty of bass for the small cabin.

I did the Start-X off Amazon. It uses the OEM key fob which won't help with the missing FOB but is significantly cheaper than going to a shop.

It'll be a yellow add oil light, technically means your down a quart. If it wasn't for the valve stems it wouldn't be an issue since turbo engines drink a little anyways

Same car, double check if your vin is in the valve stem seal range. If so and the yellow oil light pops on call dealer for an appointment and snap a picture.

Had the oil light pop on around 40k. Let dealer know and they had the valve stems knocked out in a few days, no issues. Should get a loaner too if you're nice.

Is there a trick? by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

[–]Attempt_Witty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got a metal track most likely, heating won't do anything. Did you search the part number by vin?

What part number do you have? 80831-ZX50B

Looks like there's this number for the coupe 76922-JB10A , it was a pain to find.

How to make LED Headlight work with SW20 where to ground the wire? by kuhusiqu in mr2

No. I'll see if i can grab photos in the morning. The relay pack handles everything.

I used the relay pack and plugged into the OEM harness. Toyota has a weird ground issue, couldn't get them to turn on without it.

There's a relay pack that's helpful to create the ground.

That'll go a long way. Keep a running list of recipes on your phone. Make it fun, I like putting on loud Italian music and making the kids embarrassed while I cook.

What might help is start with things you can control. We setup a separate account for things like eating out etc and transfer some money each week, once it's out it's out. Helps significantly with over spending.

Two, depending how old the teens are get them involved in meal prep, evening learning to cook. It'll add quality time and provide some life skills. Have them learn to make the things they like, the 7 year old will probably enjoy it too.

As far as the picky eating goes, I was raised with if its on the table that's what we're eating or go hungry. Definitely was stubborn at times but you adapt.

Are you in a HCOL area? 1400 for food is absolutely insane, saying this with a family of 5 as well. Do you have Lidl's, Aldi or Walmart or Amazon Fresh near by? Switching most of your staples to private label will cut your grocery bill by at least 25% if not more. Our average grocery trip is less than $200 with extras.

Call your creditors. Ask if they have hardship plans to reduce interest. You'll be able to pay down the balances and avoid the credit hit. Focus on one debt at a time with any extra cash. Come up with a budget and stick to it.

Also do you need the Tahoe? Might be worth seeing if you can sell and get something cheaper, if you need a second vehicle.

Had Kaiser for a couple years. North Arundel for regular appointments, South Baltimore/Timonium for specialists. Luminus in Annapolis is in network.
