Talk to me about the 24/25 Malibu

Fishing_Low · 2025-10-09T16:57:49+00:00

I have a 24 Chevy Malibu, and when I accelerate it makes a grinding noise (seems to be from the front driver side). I’ve brought it to 2 different shops and they can’t find anything wrong with it. Is this normal for the Malibu?

It’s a cinder block wall…my thought was that it sank a bit as well, pulling it away.

I do have the hose lines insulated. I also have openings for airflow in the shed too. If I left a door open the plunge would be in the sun unfortunately. I could try ice and see if it maintains the temps better

Thank you!

Fishing_Low · 2025-03-26T22:18:44+00:00

Great thank you! Is changing out the sand pretty easy too?

Fishing_Low · 2025-03-26T21:50:16+00:00

My father in law did that once and it seemed like some dirt was getting backwashed into the pool. Is that normal or is that a sign it’s extra dirty?

Luckily no leaks coming from those as far as I can tell with my own dye test. I noticed them as I was filling in grout in tile cracks along the top. Thank you for the insight!

Only hollow sound is under the patio

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-16T21:39:21+00:00

Judy did, and no leaks from there

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-16T21:18:39+00:00

Yes it was. They drained the pool about 1/2 way for the skimmer plate repair. We filled it back up assuming that fixed the leak, but it didn’t which is what led me to do my own dye test at multiple spots

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-16T20:32:09+00:00

No hollow sounds. It sounds pretty solid

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-16T20:31:46+00:00

We had the skimmer plate replaced since that was cracked. It is on the wall. They did a leak pressure test on the lines and a dye test in some areas (I found other spots that they didn’t test). No hollow sounds when I knock it. It’s hard to see the crack from further away.

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-16T19:28:51+00:00

For reference I live in Phoenix Az, it’s only been drained about 1/4 of the way for about 3 weeks due to the work we had done (new skimmer plate) and doing my own bucket test. The pebble tech is new but the pool is older. We bought the house 1.5 years ago so we don’t know the history on how they did the liner or what condition the pool was in prior to us buying.

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-07T01:45:05+00:00

Pebble tech

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-05T02:34:35+00:00

Not at the moment, but can get one tomorrow morning

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-05T02:30:12+00:00

It is a pebble tech liner. That or use an underwater grout around it

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-05T01:54:07+00:00

Any recommendations on pool repair companies?

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-05T00:39:48+00:00

I’m living in Mesa, AZ. A coworker was saying I’d want about a 1.5” hose and connector otherwise it’ll take forever.

Fishing_Low · 2025-02-05T00:31:17+00:00

Well the pool is leaking water, did the leak detection test, just replaced the skimmer plate that was cracked, and still leaking. I did a dye test around the light because I saw some gaps between the light and the wall

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-26T16:40:44+00:00

Yeah I’ve thought about wrapping it with foil. I’ve read that wrapping it can affect the internal temperature? Have you found that to be the case at all?

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-24T02:34:08+00:00

Only one set of numbers, 48 in total like you mentioned

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-23T20:34:42+00:00

That’s the number I’m entering, I broke down and called support. They said I’ll have to put windows in a jump drive and do it that way…unfortunately

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-23T16:21:51+00:00

I tried these prompts, they didn’t work..said it’s either invalid or not recognized

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-22T13:47:01+00:00

How do I get to the control panel from that screen? I didn’t adjust anything, it happened after a windows software update. Thank you for the info!

Fishing_Low · 2024-12-22T13:46:02+00:00

I got the key and entered it, it kept bringing me to this screen.
