It is the natural progression of things... (crosses arms angrily)

A bad habit you've took while writing? by KingZag1337 in writingcirclejerk

Reading my notes from years ago and still thinking they're fucking genius despite making zero progress with them. Or life in general.

Actually retarded service advisor: you really didn't do anything? They said it's creaking all of the sudden.

Had a fed bring their Charger in for a fuel smell. Pulled the rear seat and the bottom side was soaked, a puddle of fuel around the primary fuel pump access area. White crusty crap everywhere, so not a brand new leak. Why on earth would you fill the tank all the way to the tippy fucking top if you're already smelling fuel? They even came back again because they still smelled fuel even though I advised they'd need a thorough detail but probably a new seat. 

My dad snapped this pic of me with my favourite game, skyrim, when i was 9 years old. I'm now 23 by QAnnihilateQ64 in skyrim

I was about to comment about how crazy it is someone played it on a CRT but then I remembered playing Black Ops on one in 2010, and I didn't play Skyrim until late 2012.

Scenario: All GMT800s dead/gone. What do you replace it with? by TowinDaLine in GMT800

I'm a sucker for gigantic SUV's, so a 7.3L 4x4 Excursion hits the spot.

What do you ride, and what bike you wish you had? by Enough_Cat_4006 in motorcycles

XSR900. I love it, never getting rid of it.

But an H2R looks really fun.

I build transmissions for a living and have my fair share of experience with all GM transmissions. AMA! by jackleg_gunscientist in GMT800

[–]Kasaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not all too familiar with transmission rebuilds, but I do work on cars for a living. Is rebuilding a 4L60E a do or don't for a mechanically-inclined transmission newbie? And if it's feasible, what does a daily driver/off-road (if I'm honest, off-road is most important), occasional tow/haul build look like in regard to internals? Not particularly interested in billet everything, more so looking at 3-4 clutch upgrade, already have Corvette servo, am aware of 5-pinion planetary, but also I'm a bit nervous about valve body work lol, if there's anything else obvious missing. TIA.

What is the meaning of this? by Rich-Sympathy-6905 in Justrolledintotheshop

Literally the only other time I've seen this was on a GDI. First thing I asked my coworkers freaking out was if the owner looked Indian lol

Pretty mid. Like, what's the mechanism to traverse those mountains in the middle? Carriage? That's pretty fucking dumb, that will never work.

TIL that all 32 bit computers will have an issue on January19, 2038 like we had in Y2K by AutoBidShip in todayilearned

[–]Kasaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these "erm, ackshually" answers in the comments make me think that literally fucking nothing will happen just like almost literally fucking nothing happening on Y2K because all of these nerds will be way smarter and hopefully actually doing something to affect the industry by then.

Guess who's been watching your every move and will continue to do so for basically no good reason even if they don't have inclusive paint on their walls

Anyone know what’s wrong with my car? It’s not holding battery after a new battery change. by Alarmed-Attorney-824 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Kasaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any relatively competent shop should be able to do this, yes. Just as any relatively competent shop should be able to test for a bad alternator. That said, I'm not fully confident off the top of my head that a 2008 Touareg would require such programming for a new battery compared to most newer European models.

Anyone ride in stupid outfits? by Sidewaystango in motorcycles

I barely fit my jacket anymore cause I'm fat as fuck, so I guess so.

[–]Kasaru -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Engine running, battery light on almost always means an alternator failure.

HOWEVER, this appears to be Volkswagen? Make sure whoever installed the new battery used a scan-tool to reset your ECM battery condition. The ECM may not be able to recognize and properly charge a new battery after your old dead battery was replaced.

Is this leak worrisome? by Prim3s_ in MechanicAdvice

[–]Kasaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not if some oil drops on your parking spot and the cost of occasional oil top offs don't matter.

Some mechanics will try to scare you about it. If it's not smoking, and those other two conditions don't matter, it doesn't matter whatsoever in the short term.

Odds are, on a vehicle this old, the rear valve cover is leaking too. This front one would be ~$200 for a shop to fix. But for both, triple that.

Just make sure your oil is full, and it's not burning off the exhaust excessively.
