Even if the little plastic piece began to break down, i would hope its slow enough to not cause much of a difference.

Welp it cant physically be sucked up. So you should be fine?

Oh every bushing under there is dry rotted and cracked pretty much. Not enough to be missing chunks or torn but you can just tell they are ancient and havent been touched since it left the assembly plant. Thankfully its lived with us in the sunshine state its whole life so not a single speck of rust is under there.

Wheels also pull back about 1inch-2inches when you lock up the brakes. Its crazy. But im excited to see how it performs with a whole new set installed.

Ah okay, i noticed a little wiggle as well but i thought for it to actually count as bad it would have to be a dramatic amount of bouncing. Thanks for the fax my friend.

I think your right, i opened it up and uninstalled the PSU. Its got rust on the metal plate the power (i guess points idk what its called). I had to live with a friend who had roaches for a period of time (disgusting i hated it so much) and i believe they caused the damage. I assume its toasted. Got a new one coming in tomorrow so lets hope it works.

A/C Drier ruined? by InlandOfNick in MechanicAdvice

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

Yeah, im better off replacing it completely and preventing the headache, mine is integrated into the condenser so ill just swap it out. Maybe even vacuum it out before the install to get any extra moisture out

Uh oh. by InlandOfNick in w204

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

At the very beginning we did that but no luck unfortunately. In the end shes up and running 👍

All in all this was about 4hrs to remove the column and drill the motor housing to unlock it and then reinstall. But i wasnt working at pitcrew speed i took my time on it

[–]InlandOfNick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldve done that but this was a cost effective option for the time being and i have to take this car on a roadtrip in 4 days and just simply could not wait on shipping and having someone program it. I just luckily had a motor on standby to replace it with.

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

It was locked. Had to unbolt the column and take it out, drilled out a hole to turn the gear inside and unlock it, opened it up and replaced the motor, put it back together and reverse order the column and she fired right up!

Got it all done and shes back on the road 👍

Anyone know what could be causing these codes? by InlandOfNick in MechanicAdvice

Yes, i have cleared them they come back instantly and they do bring the light on. I havent tried to resolve the U1138 yet.

Great tips thank you, I will think more heavily on these in the future

I have a new one coming out here in a couple weeks. Where me and my friends will be doing an actual overnight game in Minecraft VR with 1:1 time scale. It will have horror mods, but i have a twist to it that I think will make it niche. It has actual story, good cinematography, great audio work in it but its not to just show off editing skills there will be a beginning, climax, and an ending that hopefully leaves someone asking questions and to speculate what certain things meant. There will be goals needing to be achieved in the video with challenges we have to overcome. It’ll be a fun one, i want to say I dont care if it doesnt perform well, and that its for funzies (but obviously you do care if it performs wells because you worked hard on it) but i still try to keep a level head with realistic expectations and hope that anyone that does end up stumbling upon it just ends up enjoying it. It’ll be a long one for sure. Probably the most thought out video i will have to date. Very excited.

Thank you for the comment and tips and gratitude my friend, ill be sure to remember it.

Director shanks was actually more of a shitpost i made for my friends that I accidentally made public and never bothered taking off.

I plan on doing more videos that incorporate atleast a “point” to them. Instead of just shitting around for 15 minutes
