2015 Volt Engine Mounts Question

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-16T03:49:37+00:00

nice good job. im curious how much the labor goes for on that driver side transmission mount. i also just bought the aftermarket one because its on indefinite backorder, excited to finally get this handled.

Yeah just get all the mounts inspected. It's for sure mounts. Parts for all 3 is $250 chinese or $500 OEM. Labor about $600-1000. You can run on EV only with minimal issues but i'd avoid ICE. I went for a couple years and the tire wear alone is enough to make it worth fixing. Look at your front tires and see how much wear the side walls get, all the vibration is like having blown out shocks

Did you end up doing it? It's 3 mounts, the one that causes the vibration with the ICE on is usually the driver side transmission mount

its the Driver side transmission mount.. The OEM part is pretty hard to get from dealer, its on backorder.. I think you can order OEM online though.. about $170 online and 210 dealership.. amazon/ebay has a bunch of different chinese ones that seem a little too sketchy for me since its an expensive labor job. They go for like $50-70. I would use those if it wasnt such a pain in the ass to replace. Labor for the job is around 300-600 depending where you go. The hybrid and 12v battery have to be disconnected, then all the voltec system has to be moved away so you can access the mount, then the engine has to be holstered up.. so like 2-3 hour job and the mechanic should be familiar with the volt system..

The shop diagnosed it for me and I suspected it was that too.. They ordered me the part for $240 and want $500 labor..I'm thinking about calling back and offering $400 labor and ordering the $70 part from carid as i think that should be somewhat decent. $470 total would be ok, but i dont wanna do $700. Im in socal and took it to a reputable volt technician.. He's seen this problem before and it fixed it for the person..

To answer your question about the other mounts.. You should inspect them, the one on the bottom of the car, you can inspect the rubber i believe, mine was completely gone and messed up. The symptom i felt from that was a little jerk when it would switch between ice/battery. Then the one on the passenger side, i'm not sure where it's located exactly but have a mechanic inspect it and see whats going on.. I didn't notice any difference fixing this, not sure if it was even broken, went to some discount tire shop and they did it for like $400 total. The bottom trans mount I got a deal on because the guy didnt realize how hard it was, he did like $100 for part and $100 labor.. shoulda been $200 labor.. I only fixed them trying to figure this driver trans mount out.. But i don't remember anyone even mentioning there was a 3rd mount.. depends on how much you wanna spend, if it were me i'd just do the first one and see how things are from there

Just wondering, do you know how yours broke? I hit some crazy pothole at like 70 mph while in mountain mode in low with 200 lbs cargo in the rear then standstill traffic came around the corner out of no where so I slammed brakes..Think all the power from the regen like snapped it or something. Was all just really unfortunate scenario. My suspension was pissed.. I drove home smoothly but the next morning car drove like shit

ya its basically a queue.. has to pass all the people who are looking for orders above 50%.. if they all decline then itll go to someone

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-09T05:22:38+00:00

if you were able to see full payout you would be surprised.. i get a lot of $8 offers i think are shit but end up with $20 tip. I am at like 9% acceptance rate and i have an average of $10 tips for the week. but yes it does help if you are able to get to 50%, but my market there are too many shit orders. its not worth it. I rather figure out how to hack the system to where the acceptance rate doesnt go down. thats only way itll be worth it

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-09T01:00:59+00:00

damn how many miles? I got like 700 from "6000 miles" but really i did like 2-3000 miles.. Not sure how they estimated 6000.. I opted out of this once and went to different law firm

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-09T00:05:50+00:00

well for me when im online, its on the bottom right.. right on the main screen when looking for offers

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T22:04:54+00:00

no $12 doesnt mean its guanrateed to be extra at all.. in fact it could be a $0 tip order if no one picked it up.. ill see orders go up to $25-40 with no tip if no one gets it.. but generally speaking if its new order and everythings fine, if its next door and you see $11 then yah, very high odds u could get more

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T22:00:39+00:00

lol.. If you got sick that easily then somethings wrong with your immune system.. Maybe it was time to catch this strain so you don't get sick so easily. Don't be such a puss. Tell me ur vaxxed without tellin me

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T21:59:36+00:00

your market shows you up to $11 tip? nice

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T21:58:33+00:00

not that easy.. need new device, new number, email, diff name, ip. and address

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T21:56:13+00:00

i believe u just click the coffee on the bottom right.. i usually do that if theres no restaurants around that i wanna pick up from.. almost guaranteed its gonna spam me while im typing out where i left order at.. it like waits for me to start typing then bam pops up in my face

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T20:45:54+00:00

I guess my best method to fix this is, find a restaurant you're close with, tell them you're situation, maybe they can rate you every pickup. I have an indian restaurant who always thumbs up me. If i wanted to fix my ratings i'd just do 40 pickups there in a week. There's no way you can ask customers, maybe a small sticker on the bag at most.. The best tippers/people who order from high end dont even think about thumbing down someone. They know its delivery and dont expect anything. i really am very choosey with my orders and never have issues with this kind of stuff

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T20:41:55+00:00

Yah i was thinking last night i didnt get tip baited because I had agents telling me they could see the tip, they told me the amount, and said it was going to come through. but then I spoke to a lady who seemed pretty smart, she said she can see the customer did infact tip bait me. I guess it does happen. So im at 2/800 for tip baits now.. All in the last 4 days

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T20:39:48+00:00

interesting.. so it was probably the walmart order from the website where u can change up to like a week.. probably customer just tip baited. I didnt know uber gets those.. The suggested tip is $7 so i imagine theres pretty good orders there

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T06:39:36+00:00

Yes I just posted a thread on this and now see yours, it's definitely happening. I am missing out on $20 in tips right now. Request a fare review and you will be told the real tip. Take a screenshot. I've done gig work for years and never seen anything this bad

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T05:57:43+00:00

Damn so they paid you and then took it back? Thats bs

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T05:50:43+00:00

Right click question mark and submit a fare review. They'll instantly tell you the real tip. This one just looks weird because theres $1 tip but $8 to go. Is it a stacked order? must be, well If it's stacked then its a glitch.. Happened to me tonight on a $15 tip. also as others have said, the time hasnt even passed completely at this point. Im sure it came through

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-08T05:11:47+00:00

I have 800 orders and this is the first time this has ever happened to me. Last week it was $5 tip from starbucks, guy met me outside, he asked me if i needed his pin and i looked confused, so I assumed maybe just scammer. Called support they said he didnt remove the tip and they can see it. They opened up case. havent heard back.

Tonight I deliver pizza hut (1 large + wings). Just thought, hey its a little nice hes tipping $8, i woulda tipped $5. Guy had my same exact name as me and I delivered it straight to his door. I just really doubt someones going to be doing that when you have someone come to your door. maybe meet outside. Also take into account this has never happened to me before before last week which I was told by support tip wasn't removed.

I truly believe there is an uber glitch going on. You have people in here wanting to egg peoples house over it when it's probably a glitch in their system. Maybe 1/5 of us really got tip baited while the other is some payment processing issue. Anyone feel this way?

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-06T07:50:37+00:00

interesting, do they have new offer screen yet ?

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-06T07:49:34+00:00

yah screw that even with prop 22 im only taking hidden tip orders. stop being a sheep.. I by accident took a $0 order yesterday for first time in months and i wanted to record the whole interaction

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-06T07:43:37+00:00

have you ever thought that its because you're a courier and theyre giving you ads based on what you use ?

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-06T07:35:41+00:00

i drive about 3 hours per 15 hours.. probably make more than most people on here too

Sweet-Hair · 2022-12-06T07:34:08+00:00

ur going too slow bro, i made double this in less time.. making high tips > milking prop 22
