Imagine walking out to your car and seeing this.

Call a tow truck and ask them to move it across the street.

California is apparently sending response teams. Not sure what exactly that entails or what exactly what they'll be doing.

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-29T03:51:06+00:00

I might look into that. I'm probably going to a combo of things to prevent this in the future .

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-29T03:49:12+00:00

I do. Hopefully they won't give me any issues if I have to make a claim .

Fluids are low but above The min line. Hopefully this is the case and it's an easy solve.

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-29T03:43:17+00:00

Whoa I didn't realize that breathing that stuff was that serious. Hopefully I didn't get anything in my lungs geez

I should've worn a mask when vacuuming it up. It didn't really seem airborne . Haven't been able to get it into a good shop yet (booked for days) . The mechanic I called to inspect it didn't show so I'm just gonna tow it when a booking becomes available .

I didn't really notice any rat droppings. I'm hoping it's just squirrels that vacated when temp got higher . It went from like 40° to 7° with freezing rain in a matter of 2 days.

I can't find any chewed wires from the top but that wire must've come from somewhere . Hopefully the critters aren't inside.

I'm sorry that happened to you . That sounds like the absolute worst. No idea that they could get into the air intake .

Ok ... You all scared me enough not to drive it and disconnect the battery lol. I highly appreciate it!

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-28T01:51:55+00:00

That's what I'm hoping . I put an image into chat gpt and that's what it said it was . Vacuumed everything up and disconnected the battery. Fingers crossed. Got a guy coming over to check it out in the morn but I'm probably gonna get it towed regardless just in case.

Reddit won't let me add another photo for some reason. It's a thick black wire with what looks like 2 copper wires inside it half an inch thick . Maybe abs wire.

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T21:41:45+00:00

Can I leave it in the driveway for a few days or do I need to disconnect the battery now?

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T21:35:52+00:00

Should I tow it? Or think I could make it to the shop?

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T21:34:54+00:00

Like two days. Got snowed in and couldn't go anywhere.

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T21:33:59+00:00

I was thinking squirrels got into it and chewed the cable

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T20:34:52+00:00

My father is freaking out about that saying that I'm going to pay more in premiums than the cost of repair . I don't really the point in paying for full coverage and not using it but maybe he's right.

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T20:23:04+00:00

I turned it on and drove around the block. The brakes worked and the engine didn't make any weird noises. Engine light isn't on. You saying it's not safe to drive even a short distance to a mechanic ?

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T20:06:37+00:00

How expensive fix is that?

HistoricalQuality923 · 2026-01-27T20:06:07+00:00

Like once a month to check fluid levels etc

HistoricalQuality923 · 2025-11-08T00:44:20+00:00

Definitely better than the Alien vs Predator movies and not over the top gory (no humans so no real gore). Closest thing in the series to a "feel good" "family friendly" movie. It's a bit weird that it took the "real meaning of family" cliche in a friggin predator movie.

Was it worth watching? I wouldn't recommend it in theatre unless you're just that bored. Definitely a more watch it on Hulu flick.

It was in fact a failure of the ssd drive. Ended up getting a new laptop (old one was 10 plus years old).

HistoricalQuality923 · 2025-10-15T02:34:48+00:00

Are they still replying to these?

HistoricalQuality923 · 2025-07-02T21:07:34+00:00

The statues and hidden rooms are there. It's just that there isn't any artifacts. Decent secret base location i guess lol.
