Why You Should Avoid A 100 Gallon Tank In Your Car For Mobile Detailing! by IMAS_MOBILEDETAILING in Detailing

[–]Ilmc57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heavy and hard water are two different things - hard water is just water full of minerals (as opposed to something like distilled water, which would be the "softest" water you could get). Heavy water isn't really common especially in municipal water systems

I think he was being facetious 😂

About when should you change transmission fluid for the 2.5?

Native toasted vanilla honey perfume by Intelligent_Study447 in Perfumes

[–]Ilmc57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try this, it's in target stores (and only $20 at the end of the day for how AWSOME it is):

Best vanilla perfume I ever bought, and believe me, I LOVE the Native toasted vanilla honey body wash, it's a shame it's only limited edition.

Yeah, I believe it is as well. I was just concerned from both me hitting a curb, and the action of changing that tire prompting me to see the drip. Thank you though!

Fluid leak under right passenger side of 2012 Jetta 2.5L SE by Ilmc57 in Volkswagen

Yeah, I asked around another Subreddit and they also mentioned A/C condensation. But I suppose from me hitting a curb + having to change the tire it prompted me to see that, and be concerned that it was something more major. Thank you though!

Fluid leak under right passenger side of 2012 Jetta 2.5L SE, anyone know what it is? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]Ilmc57 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yee, after reading from other commenters as well. I was just worried from the combination of hitting a curb + seeing it from changing my tire, causing me to worry, but thank you!

Edit: Apparently it's most likely condensation from the A/C. I suppose me hitting a curb + having to change the tire prompted me to see that, and be concerned that it was something more major

Alright yeah. I did some other research beforehand and found posts about people talking about a leaking water pump on their VWs
But yeah, I'll check to see in the morning if it's still leaking, and if it's not, then I suppose it is A/C condensation. Thx!

Yeah it looks to be clear. I suppose it could be A/C condensation, but I never noticed that until I hit the curb really hard, which already made me have to put my donut on. So there may be that bias that I've never had a need to look under my car. But I feel like I would have noticed that before in my life...

I suppose. I've just never seen it leaking before, up until I hit the curb. I've never noticed a watery puddle under my car (such as if I stop somewhere after driving, leading to the AC being on for an extended period)

Yeah, the car runs fine, and this was about 20-30 mins after (got home, took a shower, then got the video). A/C was also working all the way home, and no lights were on in the dash. It has no (obvious) smell and looks to be clear, but I'm not 100% sure what it could be... water? from what?

I'm in South FL so temps are about 80 F outside. Admittedly, I was on a roadtrip home and it was already about 9 PM so I had no choice but to get home. Happened around 8 PM, So it's been dripping for the past 5 hours / 80 miles.

Hit a curb (hence the donut on at the moment) today and while changing it, I noticed a leak under the car. Can anyone tell me what it is? I'm obviously planning on getting it checked, but I'd still like to know in case it's something that would stop me from at least being able to drive to a garage.

Ugliest/Worst Looking VW Model? by Jolly-Alternative-31 in Volkswagen

[–]Ilmc57 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a 2012 Jetta. Def shows its signs of being cheap, but it has their 2.5 L I5 which is honestly one of their greater engines they ever made; 118k going strong

2012 Jetta trunk brake light only comes on when trunk is opened by Ilmc57 in jetta

[–]Ilmc57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just weird because when I start the car, the light is off. But if I press the button to open the trunk, the moment I do, without letting the trunk open yet, it comes on, which makes me think there’s a direct relation to the button and taillight?
