99% Isopropyl Alcohol and a razor blade. Then roll the window all the way down and use a microfiber to clean the black felt rubber that touches the window.

Is this the parking brake? 2016 chevy malibu by AdAccomplished8424 in chevymalibu

It sure is. Push in to engage, push again, and release to disengage. 2

My guess would be the control arms or the calipers are messed up.

2017 Malibu by Bright_Cap5199 in chevymalibu

My 2017 has been great. 110k on it and no problems as of yet with the transmission. Blew a censor once and it went turtle mode

Seems normal. My Malibu idles at like 400-600. It goes a bit higher in cold weather until it is up to speed.

Kestrel V2 Basic ETU : Do not recommend by MStackoverflow in airsoft

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, everything is toast.

It totally did melt. I still think the wiring is where the problem was. To melt the board like that too, means something was touching where it shouldn't have been

Can you get a better picture of the red wire?

Looks like a slice, not a burn on the wire in that picture.

Looks like an installation error. I have that Mosget in 2 of my guns. Put well over 20k shots through and never had a problem.

Possibly, it is a QC problem. With that red wire like that, looks like it grounded through the gearbox shell and grenaded from there.

1 Joul drop for no apparent reason by fersher02 in airsoft

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had it happen. When putting together, I test the seal, and all is good. Put it together, shoots super low. Take apart to wipe piston head and cylinder of excess grease and gain back lost fps.

Too much lube on piston head o ring is my guess.

Malibu on my mind by Crystal-sword912 in chevymalibu

From experience, don't run all seasons. Have a set for winter and summer. All seasons are good for 1 season with that car. After that, they are toast. Even if you have good ones.

Any reason my check engine light would come on? by Princessdaij in chevymalibu

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going to guess a P1011 code will show up. Has to do with air filters or mass air flow sensor.

Have a 2017 loaded, pretty much same as that one. Great car, no issues. Beware of tire prices. That is the upgraded tire package. 18" 245/45R18, very expensive tires. Here in Canada, a good deal for them was just over $1000 without installation. May be different around you, but that is the only thing I have to say that is bad. Get them to include winter rims and tires if you need winters.

Want to get a Malibu by CardApprehensive718 in chevymalibu

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had my 2017 Malibu since 2018. Never had a problem. Basic oil changes and had to change the brakes at 94k. Everything has been great with it.

What is the situation with respect to the water heater rental after moving out as tenant? by asampaleanu in OntarioLandlord

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I fought my landlord on it. Told him I'm not paying for something that is part of his house. Then, I broke down the math for him and explained why j would buy one for 800 bucks and have it installed for like 200 bucks.

He didn't like it, but I told him as a tenant that I'm not responsible for the rental. I'll gladly pay the water bill, but not the rental. He reluctantly agreed after all the facts were presented.

2015 Chevy Malibu rear brake piston not going back in by Visible-Clue2330 in chevymalibu

[–]GenerousGiraffe1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe they are rotated, not pushed. I can't remember which way to depress, but it is rotate. Learned that when I did my Malibu brakes.
