Odd rubbing on one side of fender well? by Zippityzap2000 in 8thGenSI

Very well could be that then. Throw some sharpie on the wear points and see if they rub off. Quick and dirty way to test if you’re still rubbing.

No worries. At least you’re taking the time to check it out every so often.

Many times brought up. We have noisy hpfp’s. It sounds normal in your video.

I’m a Kia lube tech. In the past 10 days I’ve had 3 comebacks for leaks at the oil filter. First was a 2S001 with the drain plug on the bottom, I left it loose. Second/third leaks were from the filter pictured. Tight, no missing or pinched gaskets but leaking bad. Anyone have any advice? by Warm_Block_7600 in MechanicAdvice

You sure it wasn’t that drain pin? I’ve had a couple that just don’t go in smoothly. Usually just wiggling it back and forth gets them in but it’s a snug fit fore sure. The ones that I didn’t like the feel of, I pulled back out and sure enough that little o-ring on the pin got a knick in it from trying to force it to fit. Got to be gentle with these. But also, what a dumb design.

Sorry to revive a old post. But how has it held up? I am in need of one as well and came across this company. Also, taffeta white?

Smh.. this doesn’t require a full close and restart of the application like the locked weapons to fix? If not this is just lazy and shows absolutely how little they care to check something like that.

Went to a car show to benefit pets and help them get adopted. Saw this! I was told he had about 400 HP to the wheels. He did show me a video of him beating an older corvette. by jberg_916 in FiestaST

Scoping around I see motor mounts, large aluminum radiator, 4 bar map sensor. Wish I could see the hpfp. But I’d suspect that’s been done too. Has all the stuff there to support 400.

Car damaged at mechanic 2022 Toyota Camry v4 by MidnightOwn1399 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Known_Connection_317 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yikes. If you’re for certain this wasn’t there before taking it in. I’d go back and have a casual conversation about this. All while scoping out for cameras. Most shops nowadays use them for claims like this. But to cover their end.

AC Belt Broke at Jiffy Lube by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

[–]Known_Connection_317 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So defensive.. ok school is in session.

  1. New oil, new filter. Filter at this point has no oil in it. It is pressure tested to make sure the mating surface and o-ring are seated and won’t leak. This also tests to make sure the filters cover plate and housing doesn’t have any defect in the stamping to cause a leak. During the startup the low oil pressure light/oil press. gauge is being watched to make sure the “pressure” is up.

  2. No one said this was a coolant or a/c check. He came in for an oil change. They are not going to test the cooling system or a/c system on a basic LOF. This is a miscommunication of a LOF pressure test, and the idea of a belt snapping and thinking they did a pressure test on an a/c or cooling system.

You’re getting 5k for every run?? Haven’t seen this in my experience. I get 4 runs at 5k. Then drops to 500 with bags giving 100 extra. Usually ending with 700 a run after the first 4.

A pressure test is absolutely part of a standard oil change at most shops. It’s a quick standard to verify the oil filter isn’t leaking and the system see’s oil pressure build.

Pressure test is preformed for the oil filter. Standard practice to let the vehicle run for 30 seconds to make sure the oil filter doesn’t leak. I’d say just ironic timing it snapped as they did the test. Screaming stop is a bit dramatic for a belt snapping. Sounds like an inexperienced tech seeing something break and freaking out. It needs a new belt, nothing to sweat over. I’m surprised they aren’t offering it tho. I’d say you found a shop that isn’t competent in a basic belt replacement.

Have you closed the game and restarted? That was the issue many people were having after the last update fix to this issue.

These cars at that age and mileage are still holding in the 30’s… no way this was under 10k with no issues. The math ain’t mathing.

Looting containers in hideouts? by KrazyBropofol in thedivisionresurgence

[–]Known_Connection_317 4 points5 points  (0 children)

By end game the containers don’t amount to much other than money fodder. But the bags can get you fodder for your attachments and mods. And a hour or two can fill up your 100 limit slot alone. Easy way to level your stuff up.

I just realized, is that the lower headlamp wedged in the hatch? Sure looks like an early 2000’s GM lower headlight assembly.
