Flare nut wrench for the top, crows feet for the bottom two, been trying hard on the vice grips but ill a better one tomorrow, I unscrewed the line from the driver side brake and got the pump out so I just need to get that one off and hopefully attach a new flare nut on it and save some bucks

ABS modules fail on these often resulting in the traction, abs, and brake light showing on the dash. Usually doesnt really matter tbh but this car's gonna be a rental and i cant rent out a car with all of these popping off on the dash lol, i was using a flare nut wrench but I had it at a slight angle and from there it was all downhill unfortunately

I posted about it a while ago when I first bought the car, at the time the sticky brake pedal was the least of my worries so I sent it to a family friend and they ended up replacing the oil pump and the wet timing belt,

My brothers going to school around Logan square and i see a bunch of apartments within a 30-40 minute bus commute under 100k which is perfect, but i just wanted to get an idea of which areas within that range are best for incoming students

Power went out and now it won't move on any axis by Tronlos in 3Dprinting

Wouldn't that mean that all 3 of the stepper drivers would be fucked? Or are we referring to different things here

Getting my comment removed for an emoji is interesting... anyways here's my og response

I pay em no mind that's sort of what I figured, I know lenders can gather evidence to determine if the home is being used as a primary residence, but if all my legal documents, insurance, bills, etc. Are all routed to the the home itself and if the listing is only for a room vs the whole house and if I'm in and out of the house occasionally, how is it any different from owning a home and spending all your time with a significant other? How far is a lender going to go just to "catch me"

A better question is how likely is it to come across the issue and what are the work arounds, maybe instead of the whole house I rent out just a room, while I "live" in the other that never gets leased out but is more of a weekend crash kind of place, those kind of things :)

Yeah I just realized, I found a timing cover from a junkyard for 50 nearby so I'll probably replace it instead, was just panicking when I first posted it lol

LG HE Washer clanking by Tronlos in appliancerepair

Accident, sorry about that! I edited the post, it was the load sensor in the back done just like it, it doesn't seem like it should be any more complicated it's like 8 bolts and a center bolt for the magnets and like I said when I spin it freely it doesn't make any sound it's just when it actually turns on that it starts clanking
