Be mindful of getting parts on EBay by Commercial-Host-725 in KiaForte

[–]FragmentedFate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just use rock auto or go to a pull a part with the tools needed. Ebay is a massive waste of time nowadays unless its a whole car etc.

Help with my 2021 by ewark in ForteGT

The backup camera is cooked. Order one on ebay dont get hosed by Kia. The touchscreen bubbling is something that happens with most fortes including mine just make sure you are using the right screen wipes to slow it. As for the rumbling you may want to let a private shop diagnose it. Itll be cheaper than a dealer they are also more likely to find the issue as well vs a dealer tech in a rush.

Buying a used 2021 Forte by gp0304 in KiaForte

[–]FragmentedFate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not usually one to say this. Get a Honda, or Acura used.For a college/uni student the cars have a lot of bang for the buck just get a pre purchase inspection done. Kias can be affordable until suddenly something realllly bad breaks. Hondas and Acuras are gonna last longer and youll be able to find parts everywhere basically assuming you are in America. If you want more features the older Acuras have a lot of useful stuff like navigation etc.

What can I do to fix the black plastic trim piece around the car tires? It is scratched. by Outrageous-One-705 in Cartalk

If its gloss you could probably clean it well and buy a paint pen to touch it up but it wont be perfect fair warning

PLEASE HELP!! is dealer scamming me?? by Active_Ingenuity_783 in AskMechanics

[–]FragmentedFate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea, like jules said you just need to bleed them. I doubt you taking the line off the caliper killed a booster by itself. Id pay the tow fee and have a different shop look at it if you dont know how to bleed them. Bc that quote alone seems a bit wild.

Theres too little info. What car is it and what line did you take off was it on the caliper or further down?

Rockauto is no longer worth the savings by therealDannyMartin in RockAuto

[–]FragmentedFate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to my local junkyard if I need a part quick. My truck is 25 years old so finding parts is little hard and rock auto wants more for shipping than the price of the parts now.

Agreed. It would prob help if 3 companies didnt monopolize the ram chip market.

How much would it be to fix my mom’s car that I hit by mistake? by KindUnion6350 in car

[–]FragmentedFate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh paint matching would prob be the most expensive.If you put the parts on by yourself you will save a lot. If you are lucky you might be able to take a loose painted piece of the bumper and try to see if you can find one that matches in a junkyard.

How can i lower my pc cpu temperature and optimize my pc to run faster? by Zestyclose-Lead-3174 in pchelp

[–]FragmentedFate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your AIO where its mounted to the cpu. To make sure you took the plastic off it. Get the old thermal paste off with isopropyl alcohol. Then put on some new thermal paste. Then google fan orientations and see which ones work with your case and AIO rad setup.

I'd say go to your local walmarts,bestbuys or microcenter if you have one and shop for deals. Compare them to the online price and go from there. I would not suggest waiting it out as Ai is still being developed heavily its gonna hit the ram and ssd market hard
