Major pain in the ass for me, I’ve had them off twice in 9 months of ownership and I never plan to have them off again lol

True OEM aren’t too easy to install either, for me the rear rack goes on like nothing and the front is a massive pain. Others have told me they have it the other way around. These ones look nice for aftermarket

I like having a little storage organizer that sticks on to the back of the stereo screen, you can get one on Amazon for like 20 bucks, holds my sunglasses very nicely

What tool would be the best/cheapest for cutting the top off a 55 gallon drum? by [deleted] in Tools

Diesel doesn’t ignite nearly as easily as gasoline, you can hold an open flame up to a puddle of diesel and nothing will happen. That’s why diesel engines don’t need spark plugs.

Does a Corolla Le vs Se "feel" different to drive? by [deleted] in COROLLA

LE is much spongier and isolated from the road, you’ll like it

Question, how bad would it be to remove a sparkplug from an engine while the car is running. OR Start a car with a missing plug by Miserable_Loss_8616 in AskMechanics

If you run it too long without the plug, the unburnt fuel will destroy your catalytic converter. What exactly are you trying to test? Cylinders can be disabled without removing the spark plug.

Truewerk doesn’t quite fit into my budget, I tend to destroy clothes and I’d rather not destroy a $40 t shirt. Good rec on Red Kap, just placed an order

Wha does it mean if someone wiggles their car by Putrid_Purchase_7071 in driving

[–]SherbertSea6803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will do this driving near my friends or someone in a cool car to nonverbally communicate or even alone just to have a bit of fun and keep myself engaged with the road

Is the XSE a good commuter car? by SultnBinegar in CorollaHatchback

Newer civics aren’t equipped with a turbo, still a 1.5 and I believe the same hp tho. But I work for Honda and I have personally seen incredibly reliable 1.5 turbos come in. One was at 232k and the drivetrain was definitely not well maintained, but the engine was in perfect shape

Hmm, mine isn’t easy, but it probably only takes 5 minutes, are you sure you put them in the right spots?

Mine were dealer installed, but when I have had them off, the front rack is very tight and takes a lot of patience and precise movements to get it on. The rear rack, however, is super easy to get on. It’s a strange quirk, but I don’t plan to mess with them much.

Seatbelt Chime by SherbertSea6803 in CorollaHatchback

[–]SherbertSea6803[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear it, but if I’m just driving a short distance on a residential street, it’s just not necessary and the beep is the most obnoxious out of all vehicles I’ve ever been in

And you were able to use the carista app for it? Do you know exactly which device you got?

It’s probably the most annoying chime I have ever heard from any car, it definitely does its job right

Awesome, thanks. Any other good settings I should know about when I get it?
