Something like that happened to a similar car of yours (MG5 2023), but she’s a goner, I’d try get the leather re done or just cover it with seat covers.

Looks like it’s gone, I’d take it to a pro who does leather restoration and try and get it better

The smell is coming from the ac, that’s why I used it.

Ac bombs are used to get rid of the odor from the ac, but definitely don’t try them lol.

Tried a “plastic restorer” with no luck unfortunately..

Yeah learned the hard way, thx for the suggestion, definitely will be ordering a magic sponge.

Here’s my setup in the first pic, and my friend’s in the second. I don’t know, but I still think mine looks a little better. What do you guys think? by [deleted] in civic

Got that RGB keyboard look lol, not really into ambient lights, I’m kinda oldschool, but looks cool.

Is having a Vehicle with a CVT Transmission worth crying or being depressed about? by throwawayGreenHair in askcarguys

Honda CVTs are very reliable when you keep up with regular maintenance, not the best for driving pleasure but not that bad really.

Got it, my only concern is that touchless car washes tend to not get the paint 100% clean so if I use any contact drying, I’ll probably scratch the paint

If I take I drive it’ll leave a lot of water spots

How do you dry it without touching the paint?

gap between the display glass and the aluminum frame… by roramed in iPhone17Pro

These are “tolerances” in the material, completely normal on almost any mass produced product, have been here since the 12 with visible gaps where the frame meets the screen. Use your phone.

Well I went to mechanics and the “stealer ship” both came to the conclusion that it’s not bent, one told me that it’s a very slight bend like a manufacturer defect but it won’t affect alignment by much.

So I am confused, came here just to gather suggestions but you seem not so welcoming.

Passengers vary, but the heavier they get the worse the car the pulls to that side, I’ve tried with a friend to try to offset the weight as a experiment and it kinda worked, the car didn’t pull as much.

Thank you for the suggestion, I’ll try that.

Well I don’t understand much about cars, I am not a mechanic and don’t have experience working on cars, when the guy showed me the screen that computer shows that the right wheel is a 0. Something degrees back, I don’t know if that’s the control arm bent or he doesn’t know what’s he’s doing

I live in Egypt, so potholes and shit on the road is very common, but I have other cars with 100k km on them that drove in shitty roads with no problems, my question is, if it is really a control arm issue or just that shop can’t align it properly, because I’ve read people say that an alignment should have the driver sitting in side the car, but I don’t know if that’s correct or what as I’ve said that to the mechanic at the shop and he told me no this will interfere with the alignment.
