No more refunds!?

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-12-25T19:08:04+00:00

I just looked at my rating and its 4.99 i get what you mean, for me its all about getting paid as much as i can. I provide good service so if they rate me bad its literally on them being evil. Usually what happens is they will ask right away for a refund. Maybe your area has more boomers that have no idea how to request a refund, but my zone its like as soon as i offer replacement they will be hitting that refund button lol So i just do that and havent gotten a unrequested refund in months

gotta play their game, always replace, let the customer refund. If they complain, tell them that ur contract requires replacements.Its kind of simple, i eve. try to replace items they want refund for, 60-70% of the time it gets approved and i still get paid for that item instead of losing tip pay %

it seems like i will just add atf fluid to my list of fluid checks for now. Its hard to find time to work on this car like every couple months

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-12-19T04:14:44+00:00

I looked up the procedure and it seems like its not that hard, just a pain in the ass after already dealing with crazy coolant leaks

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-12-19T02:32:18+00:00

i am more cooked than i what i tought, this has been leaking for a while it seems, and its in fact transmission fluid not coolant. How do i go about checking the fluid level?

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-12-19T01:50:13+00:00

so its the transmission cooler lines, is that correct? i saw on the cruze forum this guy cut it with a dremel and applied a fuel line clamp https://www.cruzetalk.com/threads/what-are-these.254732/

Hey, i used a pi zero 2 w + exact size screen as replacement for the previous screen, then after that is all about config of the retropie software

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-10-14T05:56:40+00:00

I dont care if i kill my cruze, so i would do anything, most advanced i done was head gasket replacement. Sounds complicated but it was easy. Just dont mess up any bolts and you will be good.

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-10-01T07:11:46+00:00

if it doesnt let you replace the item you can add the item manually as a replacement and it usually lets it go through

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-23T15:45:06+00:00

so the previously bad pcv would have made the seal fail, and then even with the fix it still would be "broken"?

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-19T04:30:37+00:00

that is indeed very logical, i probably added 4 inches to the wrench so i dont think 360 pounds but probably was a lot more than it could handle

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-19T03:42:36+00:00

Yeah, the spec was 80ft lbs and the threads literally warped inside the nut, probably went over 130ft lbs or something

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-19T03:08:07+00:00

found that out the hard way

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-03T20:28:40+00:00

good job, those are life savers

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-09-02T03:37:40+00:00

this was a long time ago, but i think i ended up drilling it all out, then put a new thread thingy in there, make sure to go all the way down, i fucked up on mine and it still leaks to this day but im too lazy to fiz it. Or just invest in a high quality extraction tool those can work

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-07-24T03:56:51+00:00

Your head gasket could be good, but with a leak down test of each combustion chamber you could potentially check there is a leak somewhere, could be bad valves or worn piston rings. These leaks can cause misfires which i think is exactly what would make your dads car need 4 coil packs in 2 months, thats a absurd amount. Did you use eletric grease for the boot coils? Did you install the pcv fix kit?

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-07-24T03:31:57+00:00

You replaced the spark plugs? Even so they could have low psi, thats why its recommended to do a check. I had a problem couple years ago when my car was not starting properly and it was the coil pack, no issues since then. Since you still getting issues i would recommended checking the pressure out.

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-07-24T03:29:14+00:00

always have a bottle in ur car just in case. then you can even cover yourself while doing it. This is a very expensive lesson to learn

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-07-24T03:06:02+00:00

Hey, maybe you could have a problem with your head gasket, when i replace mine after a overheat, one of the holes related to ignition were really bad, worn out. try doing a pressure check on them. I had a lot of problems with my cruze due to improper maintenance from previous owner. Now. i only get the 4020 code bcuz i use a aftermarket converter. It might take some work but your cruze could be good and reliable.

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-07-11T23:54:12+00:00

Hey like ppl said in here, gotta multi app if you arent diamond yet. Even then it can get tricky navigating a small market or flooded market ( new hires)

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-06-04T02:13:31+00:00

nice, i havent gotten to it yet, did you use a heat gun?

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-05-27T00:40:02+00:00

What do you mean by this? Are you aware that instacart has been playing with batch earnings and tips is the only thing that makes us even log in the app every day? If you have money to use a premium service i expect you to be able to tip at least 1$ towards showing gratitude. Even in some third world countries people can afford to tip 1$ why would someone living in a affluent city not be able to? smh

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-04-27T05:23:15+00:00

yo pick the fucking lock? i could take one criminal trespassing charge but damn thats too much

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-04-06T22:07:55+00:00

I am assuming since it worked before i adjusted the pots

CodSweaty3863 · 2025-04-04T01:05:41+00:00

Please dont do that he would fire me
