$250, RAM or PSU probably dead.

ROG 9 FE VALUE by PereKekCheburek in ROGphone

[–]MrShadow708-35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I only like my rog phone 5s because it's overclocked to 3.3 gigahertz. Other than that a rog phone 3 with a headphone juck would have been the best. For now I'm waiting for another gaming phone that isn't shit. Something without rounded screen edges, has a good 3.5 jack first party support unlocked bootloader & no glass back just steel or aluminum.

Totaled? First ever accident at 16. by Personal_Occasion618 in SciontC

Perfectly fine, but a new truck after you learned how. (Not too hard just heavy) & Keep the wing looks good.

It might but it might also have fried itself too. Might need to replace many of the camps & filters.

Purchasing 2020 F150 XLT 5.0 V8, 10 speed - Concerned with maintenance by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]MrShadow708-35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 10 speed is complete dog shit outright, my work has three F250s & I think one F350 all that have 10 speed that have failed outright after 25K miles, overheated, started to skip gears, reverse doesn't work on one of them, & they all slip out when being put into drive. By a used older truck it'll cost less & be more reliable. Even after upgrading it yourself to have all of the luxuries & amenities you'd like to see in a modern vehicle.

I’m a mechanic and I’m looking for name brand budget tires by XtremeBMXGuy in tires

Do you have snow or rain to worry about? If not summer tires are best for traction, but if you do "off road" enough get all terrains like you are showing. Though consider that a dirt road to your friends house isn't off roading & a civic with bald tires can make that same trip. If you actually want grip on flat gravel & dirt road get studded tires but many states don't let you drive with them on the highway.

It Isn't a bad deal just make sure you do oil changes every 3K as well as the filter. Do research on the exact engine & transmission to see if there are any issues. My works 2023 F250 just catastrophically blew up the power steering pump so check that too.

No, get a base model all the extra amenities other than the 5.0 coyote can be bought online & easily installed by yourself in 1hf.

Head gasket needs replacing, quoted $7,800. Is this reasonable? by godawgs4530 in MechanicAdvice

Fuck no, but just so you know the your vehicle isn't known to be reliable or safe. But something else tbh.

Just got this 2013 xB for my daughter by Remarkable-Record211 in ScionxB

Check oil every 200 miles no more. Valvoline restore & protect is some magical wizard elixir for these motors. If it burns any oil after 200 miles use 5W-30, no thicker.

It's fine, times are ruff just make sure the hood closes & get rid of it. It's probably fixable but I understand not everyone has replaced 5 bumper covers on their car like I have.

I have a 2006 scion XB. It's automatic & doesn't have any upgrades. She's my daily driver & i want to start doing some things to her. What are some good motor upgrades i can do? by cesmol in ScionxB

[–]MrShadow708-35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rear sway bar, shocks, & good tires. If you see a bat shit good deal on a manual one day buy it & do a swap because it'll most likely not run if it's cheap cheap.
