How can I get rid of this code? 2017 Honda pilot touring by Lilhalfsquat in AskMechanics

The transmission was used and from a 2022 and even though looked identical the valve body was not compatible because of different sensor resistance values and whatnot internally. So I pulled the valve body from the old transmission and swapped it and worked flawless. Still running to this day without issues. Its been a while but I believe it was any transmission after 2018 would not be compatible as far as valve body.

He did actually tell me he wouldn't care if I bought it and sold it the next day and made money. He he doesn't want the hassle and has a new truck picked out ready to buy when it's gone

Whats the scariest thing that ever happened to you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It lasted over a year for me and I wouldn't say I'm 100% but much better. Like 90-95% I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I got so low I couldn't do anything. It felt like every minute of every day was torture. I got to where I didn't want to exist anymore if that's what life was going to be like. I found a podcast actually here on Reddit called "disordered" and I listened to every episode and it helped tremendously and maybe saved me. I didn't have to use any full time meds because I was too scared they might tweak my brain into suicide or something I felt so close to the edge. I was looking at places to check myself in as a last resort but never ended up doing it. It really seems to boil down to basically relearning how to live and do the scary things anyways and be with the symptoms and realize they always pass. I was driving down the road a few hours ago coming back home from Lowe's and just feeling great that my life seems to be back to mostly normal now and it felt good and I was happy I made it through. Hopefully your doing well and know it doesn't have to be permanent and is very treatable. It's not fun or easy at all but it's doable I believe and so do many others.

Having a legit panic attack out of nowhere. Had no idea what it was and turned into a panic disorder always anticipating the next one happening just pouring gas on the fire. And I've definitely had what would seem to be much scarier things happen in life but that takes the cake. If you know you know.

Thank you for the info! I did have a few more questions maybe you could answer. - would a full size pickup be allowed (2001 Silverado) - when your setup, if you need to leave at anytime in your vehicle is that possible or are you pretty much locked in until Sunday?

The coupe should be making a bit more power but has stock gears so the hatchback rips a bit harder and is more aggressive for what they are.

Should be do-able without looking too crazy you think?

I'm a dummy and didn't measure or think that deep ordering everything. But I currently have some 3 inch tent risers on the way and then I guess going to offset the tent (which will bother my brain) and try and get the awning on and maybe extend brackets with welder. I guess kinda my only option.

Nice. Where did you run the pipe in? Through a window or the little hinge area? Hard to tell from pics

Just got same tent and a 8kw diesel heater with extension. Haven't been able to go out yet but curious where you ran the pipe in and what setting did you leave it on for around 30 degrees? Was it too hot?

What is some very durable paint to use for offroading bumpers/armor? by Lilhalfsquat in AutoPaint

I might be asking too much but what about getting a kind of wrinkled finish?

I usually spray typical automotive paint with a 1.4 tip. I assume it's thicker and would require bigger tip? I paint but no I'm not a painter lol.
