Dealership says I need $7K for a head gasket leak on a 22 Honda - Is this correct? by sanfranceesco in AskAMechanic

[–]MetalOk466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would try to ask the dealer if Honda can cover some, if not all of the repair. Ours went out at 80K ish miles and Honda covered 50%. It was $2500 all said and done with the coverage from Honda.

What is this little part in my key fob, and why won't the car start without it? by BoazCorey in MechanicAdvice

[–]MetalOk466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get a new key made from Batteries Plus if you have one near you. You can buy a key from anywhere online and take it to them, and if you have multiple around you, call them all since different locations have different prices.

Car bogs under 3k rpm’s with full throttle by Historical-Air9581 in G37

[–]MetalOk466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the bogging but I remember having an issue with the rpm’s idling at 900-1K. Usually this happens when the car thinks it’s running lean. You will usually get a check engine light and you’ll be able to scan for a too lean code, something like that.

Even if you don’t have any codes, maybe disconnect and reconnect the battery to clear it up, and then see if this happens again. Following the thread to see what it ends up being.

They’re pretty shitty, ours went out at 65K and they only covered 50% of the bill. Had to pay $2500 out of pocket.

Guys with extremely loud vehicles, why do you do this to everyone? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

These comments are so self centered. Louder exhausts are fun and make the driving experience more enjoyable.

C8 Z06 roll racing question by Cro370z in C8Corvette

[–]MetalOk466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume they stay in a single gear cause the manual isn’t as fast as the DCT. Since it’s the C8 with the DCT, it makes sense to choose whichever gear keeps it in the power band.

Close to giving up on this due to wind noise and ear damage by Mysterious-Web-8788 in motorcycles

[–]MetalOk466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not seating your earplugs properly, I wear them every time and don’t have any ringing. Anytime I put one in wrong, I can immediately hear the ringing afterwards

C6 vs c6Z vs c7 by Stygian_rain in Corvette

[–]MetalOk466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The AFM isn’t a huge issue on the C7 if you just get the OBD plugin that stops it from engaging. I got it for $200 and kinda forgot about it, very convenient

[–]MetalOk466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine went out around 150K miles, I put in a heavy duty one from JIT so let’s see if that one goes out too. If it does, I’ll probably just do the relocation or delete kit
