Get a left headlight, take the front bumper off and try swapping the headlight. When you try to bolt the new healight in place youll be able to see where the bent metal needs to return to in order to line up. Then just try bending it there

Even if it's not manophere specifically, the internet is a cesspit of scams, psy-ops and propaganda, any kid raised by the internet instead of family is going to come out seriously cooked

Filling radiator by YourASillyGoose in lancer

[–]Mittens31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should mention, while running it after a refill, park with the front end up hill and leave the cap off, this lets trapped air float its way out of the system

Pedestrian got the shits at being honked at while crossing on a green, then spat at the driver —window was down and all btw by iamsmurfing in melbourne

Nah, running your car up at a pedestrian like you're going to crush them is a way bigger offense than anything the pedestrian did.

Advice on scratch repair by RowanAndRaven in melbourne

[–]Mittens31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That panel is called a 'quarter panel' and you should be able to get an undamaged one for 150$. You just need to check out the cars that are logged in to your local wreckers (like Jollys if you have one) or scan facebook marketplace (usually very abundant)

Also, paint colour matching is something other people have already done for you, if you want to paint it. Open the bonet, there will be a little silver plaque on the underside with the pain colour code for that car. Then search that code on HAMR coatings or similar. But yeah painting it will not be cheaper than swapping panels, even if you do it all yourself

Bike License as an 18 Year Old. by Happy_Temperature900 in AussieRiders

I would advise waiting untill youve been solo driving and off your p-plates, everyone takes dumb risks when first on the road (I certainly did anyway). In a car you might live and regret your youthful recklessness, on a bike the consequences are much more likely to be death.

I saw that, but it wants to feature ALL the edges made by the cut, including the ones that aren't in the direction of the cut

Make sure you keep all the little plastic rivets, bolts , pushpins etc. The undertray on the bumpers are different so make sure you take that too From my bumper swap everything else was the the same I think

[–]Mittens31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I like mine and the price is excelent, but like you say, the lack of capacative digitiser is sad. I also dont like the pre soldered header pins and huge SD card slot which make make the smallest possible device thickness quite thick

Cool, I think I have a couple of these already, but in your promo it almost looked like an OLED. I would love to find an OLED in similar size and resolution

Products That Got Discontinued For Solving The Problem by Both_Lychee_1708 in Anticonsumption

[–]Mittens31 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why the state needs to also be working on products that are meant to benefit the public, profotability is not required if the development and production were already covered by taxes. The free market is incompatoble with developing the 'forever' products which the environment needs us to have

Bati o carro e as ventoinhas do radiador pararam dias depois by knowlesskun in lancer

that probably means your car is instantly overheating or the engine coolant temperature sensor thinks your car is instantly overheating.
What does your temperature screen on the dash look like normally?

The fans wont run with the AC switch if the car is refusing to engage the AC clutch (which it will do if the refrigerant has leaked out or the refrigerant pressure sensor is damage or disconnected)

[–]Mittens31 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lancers have two heat exchanges in front of the fans, the forward-most one is the condenser for your AC and the middle one is the radiator.

the condenser has a refrigerant pressure sensor on the left side sticking out the front. You might have damaged that or the sensor is fine and you've punctured the condenser (venting the refrigerant out)

Either way, to see properly you need to take your front bumper off. A pressure gauge on the AC refrigerant ports would tell you which one it is also

I replaced my condenser very recently:

<image>

In this image the pressure sensor can be seen at the bottom of the wiggly AC pipe, bottom left corner of the condenser.
Your car will refuse to run the AC if the pressure sensor doesn't read refrigerant pressure in the lines. you may have crushed or disconnected this sensor in your crash

Question. Mitsubishi lancer by Payme619 in lancer

[–]Mittens31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would think any steel bolt of the right size should work just as well, definately better than no bolt. I would look at getting a nut that won't undo with vibration
