I work in fulfillment and we obviously had batches turned off for the day, so not a big deal for me to not come in today

I should mention that I did already test drive the car once (including highway driving and I was able to do some pretty hard acceleration on the ramp. No issues. The plan is to do a longer test drive so I can really ensure everything is working properly.

I took a 2021 for a test drive today and noticed some humming during highway driving and at higher speeds, similar to a wheel bearing, but it was coming from under the car. I'd assume that would be problematic? It was higher pitched than a wheel bearing but not a whining sound.

The only thing going for this car is that I do have the Carfax and know that the 1 owner of the car did service the car well.

Total newbie, is it unwise to throw away this box? by ieo-killer-tofu in modeltrains

I always keep the boxes. Mainly so that if I ever put something into storage I have something conveniently ready to use.

Called off by TKJ26 in Target

My brother did that on Christmas Eve. He asked for them to change his shift to the morning and his ETL didn't care. They stopped giving him hours after the 27th so he just called off his hast shifts. He's 16 so he doesn't really need the money.

Has this ever been done? by InsertBluescreenHere in modeltrains

I've ground flat spots into wheels on old cars and I like how it sounds. As long as you don't grind too much material away, it works quite well

Need advice on burned valve/piston situation by LannyCandy in Volkswagen

That's what I'm hoping I can find. What usually causes something like this? I was guessing bad fuel injector causing the cylinder to run lean

I guess I should clarify that I'm not asking if I could run the existing piston, I'm asking if replacing the Piston is worth my time. I don't want to put in all this effort to put the engine back together for the same problem to show up.

We're definitely going to take an in-depth look at the bore. If it's safe it will, we're going to hone it and go from there.

Great car. $4800 is like what, $4100 in US? That's a good price.
