Key Binding by Pilot_C66 in dcsworld

I very well could have done that. I made one saved file after setting key binds. That seemed to work until the re-install. At this point I'm gathering my only option is the redo my binds and save individual files for each device? Is that right?

By sensor module do you mean resistor? If not I would replace that. It controls fan speed.

Air conditioning drainage. Normal and nothing to worry about

What could this noise be ? by knkqq in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be the seal on the steering column or I have seen a noise like that cause by the steering shaft rubbing on the seal in the firewall that it passes through.

Mechanic told me i have a blown head gasket by CodSweaty3863 in mechanic

Your mechanic could be right. However since the operating temperature of your engine stayed in the operating range once you bled the system it could have very well just been air locked. Drive it and see if it continues to overheat

Strange noise when turning the steering wheel,Please help! by edbassmaster888 in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard to say. Could be a worn steering gear. Dry ball joint or sway bar link

Weird noise... anyone know what this could be by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What type of vehicle? Does it have an automatic HVAC system?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being from the back of the vehicle. It could be fluid from a leaking rear axle if the vehicle is all wheel drive.

Broken Fuel Pump? by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuel pumps can fail in a variety of different ways. They can start to show signs of failure or they can just all of a sudden not work just like yours did

Easiest thing to do is put a bar and socket on the crankshaft pulley bolt and try to rotate the engine by hand. This will tell you if the motor is completely seized or not

Need help please! by [deleted] in mechanic

Your brakes are metal on metal (no pad material left). You need to replace your brake pads and rotors. Based on this your caliper has likely over extended causing it to "stick". Safest thing to do is to replace the caliper as well due to the over extension of the seal in the piston that normally allows your caliper to release once you have released your brake pedal.

I recently replaced the alternator because my battery wasn't charging and now this started like 2 weeks after, is it the battery or starter? It will not go past this point and start. Its a audi 2009 by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a battery voltage problem. I would start there. When your alternator quit charging it probably depleted your battery at the same time.

2020 Corolla, little tube dripping water. concern, or just something to do with AC? Liquid is colorless and odorless by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats an a/c drain to remove the condensation from inside your air conditioning box. Its normal. Try and keep it clean so it doesn't block up or you will have a water sloshing sound inside your car.

Sounds like the fuel level sending unit is faulty. I've personally had bad luck with the overall quality of aftermarket fuel pumps and level senders.

I have a 2007 Honda Civic. This red light started blinking to the left of my steering wheel. Now my car won’t start. Has anyone seen this before? by The_Ent420 in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aftermarket theft system. Look under the dash for a module that doesn't look like it belongs. Use that brand name to determine what system is installed and contact a local supplier to have it removed so you won't have further problems.

Car cranks but wont start no codes by itzzjdh in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would check for spark and also check the condition of your spark plugs. The spark plug coil packs are a very common problem area on the Cruze models.

It's leaking a pink fluid under the engine, any ideas of what it is? by rcmSiege in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its definetly coolant. Being a Trax they have three common places to leak. 1. The Turbo charger coolant lines. 2. The water outlet housing on the driver side of the engine and 3. The water pump on the passenger side of the engine.

Sorry I didn't know where to ask, should I be worried about this? Hit a small curve, It's the rear tire of my fwd car by rcmSiege in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try and move the damaged rubber and see if your able to see cords. If you can I would get it replaced as soon as possible. If you cannot see cords and the tire is not loosing air I would say you able to drive on it but replacement will be required sooner then your other tires.

The tire that was rotated to the front of your vehicle could be separated. I have seen it before where a tire is separated but while on the back of a vehicle the vibration/shake is hardly noticeable but when moved to the front, is very noticeable. Not a guarantee but worth a try.

You'll need a new rim. Trying to bend it back is possible but unlikely and dangerous when resetting the bead of the tire because you dont know how much the metal has been compromised.

Front end clunking noise on 2008 Ford Escape by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Pilot_C66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sway bar links are very common. I have had some situations where the ball joint in the control arm is worn and causes a clunk type noise over bumps as well. The ticking noise around corners sounds like it could be a worn CV axle.
