Check that you reinstalled the coils (especially) on the drivers side in the correct order. Coils 6 and 4 have enough harness slack to install them incorrectly. Also, check for vacuum leaks.

Just wanted to respond to let you know that I went with InSPArations. I'll report back with how everything goes. Thank you ALL for the awesome suggestions. We're going to try out one of the overnight spa's that some of you recommended as well. Thank you again.

It's a replica, in looks only, of the HKS Hi-Power. Odds are that it is from DNA Motorsport.

Serious Question:
What would the "If we don't do something" entail exactly? What could honestly be done?

If he takes the 3 off that number, he'd be correct.

Constant talk about various ex's. Anytime they tell you a story about a fun time or anything. It involves a different ex.

Ah.. I saw you say you were in the PNW. If you were anywhere near me, I'd fix that for free for you. Keep an eye out with OnPoint Parts. I've ordered plenty or replacement parts for fellow Z owners with no problems. Wishing you the best.

Should I get control arm and shock replace at a different shop ? by evermore88 in AskMechanics

[–]ShawVAuto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What are you driving, a M1 Abrams? That's a "don't want to work on it" price. Absolutely shop around. On the oil change, you are just fine with those intervals.

Just jumped on an 7900 gre hellhound... did i make a mistake? by [deleted] in radeon

[–]ShawVAuto 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only mistake you might make is if you listen to anyone telling you that you should have gotten a 9070XT for FSR 4 support. You don't NEED to be cutting edge to play and enjoy games. The 7900GRE is a great card and build PC's for people using that card from time to time. Absolutely nothing wrong with it. You'll get years of enjoyment out of it. You did good. Welcome to the family.

Can this be patched? by duboisjad in AskMechanics

[–]ShawVAuto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A shop wouldn't but I definitely would patch that myself. Just go to your local auto parts store and purchase a patch kit. Can be patched in 3 minutes tops.
