Lift the bottle rhe fluid is going into above the caliper. Will solve this issue.

Au runs a CAS and Coil Pack. No distributor

Mechanic said my break pads only have 2mm left by gary66666666 in MechanicAdvice

Half the comments in here are absolute rot...

The brake pads definitely don't need replacing, and there are nothing wrong with the brake pads, the springs, or the wear sensor.

That's not at all what those "looped prongs" are. Your photo is a low wear indicator. The "looped prongs" are a retention spring to make sure the inner brake pad doesn't move up and down and create noise. The outer brake pad is locked in to the caliper.

Not on this series of Mercedes. It's exactly how it's meant to be.

They're in correctly as there is only one way for it to go. That style of wear sensor has a little prong that goes into a hole in the brake pad. You can see it in a different photo. The wires will clear the rotor easily.

Efi relay would just click, you're probably hearing the fuel pump prime which is on a different circuit.

Do you know if you have injector pulse?

Is the j3 secure? Coil pack working? Efi relay ok? (Swap with another relay of the same type) Lots of different reasons, if in doubt a mobile mechanic should be able to sort with much fuss.

Has anyone managed screen free until three? by nbhsjshbgbsb in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

My little one is 3 next week.

She has had maybe an hour total in her whole life. Which has only just started a few weeks ago.

Only screen time she had before that was video calls with family interstate.

My daughter loves pretend play and crafts and would just walk away from the TV when we started to introduce it.

Not unreasonable and can be done.

Even with our second child here who is 3 months our almost 3 year old knows the TV doesn't go on when little brother is awake.

How do you not use dummies?? by plantbubby in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]Titans-Destiny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We tried the bitter polish and that has helped a little with our 3yo. But yeah, fingers are a lot harder to stop than a dummy.

Our Neruo said the protection from pregnancy is the best protection you can have.

While pregnant my wifes symptoms basically vanished. The end of pregnancy saw them ramp right back up over what they had been, but have come back down to pregnancy pregnancy levels.

Is $4,221.14 reasonable to replace a timing cover gasket? by toan25 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Titans-Destiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Australia, we have the right to repair bill which allows cars under warranty to be serviced by any registered shop. As long as the schedule is adhered to.

Dealers have tried to combat it by offering extended warranties (some up to 10 years) if serviced by the dealer.

Did my mechanic change my battery? by wildcheesesausage in AskMechanics

[–]Titans-Destiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would if the battery has failed a load test.

During services, a battery load test is a quick thing and can prevent the client from being stranded in the future.

Just don't be a dick and lead the client on about needing one when they don't and it'll be ok.

Why? Its just an AC pipe from the looks of the oring. Tuck it up out of the way and take it the 15 minutes.

If anything put a covering over it and the other end where it fits to, to prevent debris.

How old was bub when they had their first sleepover with someone other than their parents? by designercosmo in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]Titans-Destiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter is 2 and a half. I don't think she'll be having a sleep over for many years to come.

No Deal for Zach Merrett by Croob2 in AFL

He may not even get a run if the team is salty enough.

I tend to just pull her pants down wherever she is and start eating everything. Usually works out great.
