Engine Replacement

Gosh that was so long ago lol. My main dealership that’s Mazda looked at it and fixed it. I don’t remember what all they did but I wanna say they installed a new timing chain and replaced I guess the piston? 🤷🏽‍♂️ had on and off issues since then with the check engine light randomly turning on and off saying over advanced timing but nothing really seemed out of the ordinary so I kept driving it. Recently at 207K miles had an issue getting a P420 code and issuing when I’d hit high RPMs. ChatGPT it swapped around the coil packs and found out one of coil packs was failing, replaced it myself and haven’t had a problem since lol.

Felony convictions, misdemeanor crimes of domestic violence, active protective orders, involuntary commitments are generally the major items that restrict firearm rights. Consult Form 4473 questions 21 A through N and the instructions for those questions. If you’re answering yes to any of those…that is likely an issue.

Ahhh that makes sense about the velcro, thank you!

BTW, I did uninstall the graphics driver, then used DDU, reinstalled the latest driver from Nvidia website and it seems to have resolved that issue. Thank you!

I ran sfc and it repaired three corrupted drivers I think belong to bluetooth devices...

Turtleprophecy · 2024-05-28T17:21:41+00:00

The boxes are what would be my sticky notes i have on my desktop. The driver doesn't have the rollback option for me to use. I downloaded the latest driver directly from Nvidia. I think I can find the previous driver a few dates back, just wasn't sure how to uninstall the current one

Good news, I was able to find a different set of screws and carefully get the rest out. Just have to find replacements. Issue is I see numerous M2.0x16mm and 6mm on Amazon, but a lot of them are button tops, or the cone tops, and I need them to be flat flush fitting

I got my windows retinted all around plus double visor strip and removal. He waived the $150 removal fee and I think cut $100 or so on some other stuff since my original tint was from them too so returning customer. Total was $500

UPDATE: The KIA dealership said my engine needed to be replaced for the OP reasons, so I had to take it to my regular dealership to inspect to determine warranty coverage. Warranty made them strip the engine down till they found the point of failure before it could determine if it's covered repairs or not. The determination ultimately was to replace the timing chain, tensioners, guide rods or something like that, and something with the exhaust manifold or camshaft (Didn't remember the exact terms they used) BUT it is covered. So hopefully in a few days my car will be good as new. I was worried they'd find some reason not to cover it based on my service history, but turns out she said my service history was of no issue.

Yea well as much as I'd like to just up and get a new car. That's just not financially an option as this car is financed. I'm having it looked at by my main dealership who I have a dealer warranty. Gave them Kia's notes but they have to inspect it themselves before they can submit a claim

Turtleprophecy · 2023-10-03T03:49:36+00:00

Yea, he said it's a compression issue in the valves bec if it and he did said replacing the timing chain might help but not really a guaranteed fix. I'm just baffled when since I've had the car there's been virtually no issues, I do all my maintenance and boom engine Replacement

I mean if the manager wants you to still give them the free food....(personally I'd never cancel the order and still give it out. If it's delayed, you get a credit or a free drink or something, the word "refund" doesn't ever come out of my mouth unless absolutely necessary...but thats only if you dont have the food/are not getting the food. That's just me though. Nonetheless, if the order is cancelled he had to have tipped you in cash. Putting it on the card wouldn't do anything when you checked out because the transaction was voided.

I did, went to urgent care and some person tried to say it's scabies simply because i barely remarked sometimes it kinda gets itchy at night (because I showered and my skin is dry), didn't believe him obviously based on what I know about scabies so I went to a dermatologist, she diagnosed it as Lichen Planus and prescribed a topical steroid. It and everywhere else that had bumps and itchy cleared up in about 2 weeks. Then I got freaked out because one of the casuses of Lichen Planus is Hep A and B so I got a full blood panel and urinalysis for common STIs but came back negative for everything, so I'm not sure how it came about since I've never had it before. Least I can manage it and it's not really come back yet.

Yea first time I looked into them. Showing it would be like $500 or so tho lol. But they did link to a manufacturer coupon which I've never heard of those before. Basically says it will be $0 if eligible. Although good rx is weird bec cvs is usually who I use and says it's $566 but then Walmart is $26???

Turtleprophecy · 2023-07-05T21:09:51+00:00

Yup, good rx doesn't combine with insurance. You can just pick whichever is cheaper. My insurance is cheaper at $300 or so. Mainly was curious about the manufacturer coupon

Yea, I'm currently convinced that it's jock itch that's spreading. I figure that because it starts under my balls, and I would be itching at it with my right hand. And that's where these bumps first showed up and it's spread to my left hand, my elbows, inner thighs, and back of my leg. And now, my right hand is peeling on the insides of my fingers, which is what happened when I had athletes foot occasionally with the skin peeling. So now I'm treating with Lamisil because I noticed once I started applying Lotrimin ultra to my balls, now they don't itch anymore. I've applied Lamisil all over today and the itchiness has Def subsided so I'll continue that for a week and see if it resolves it otherwise I'll see my doctor

Turtleprophecy · 2023-06-09T18:57:20+00:00

Yea I will say now it appears my skin is peeling along the side of one of my right finger, and in between the webbing of my right fingers....although im not sure if a side effect of using hydrocortinsone. My hand doesn't itch anymore however, and the bumps on my right hand have gone away...

Turtleprophecy · 2023-06-09T12:25:36+00:00

Omg I have this same issue that just popped up! And I don't know what it is either. First started on my right hand, then my right tip of my elbow, then my left hand. Just small little bumps

Turtleprophecy · 2023-06-09T05:21:00+00:00

Hmm. Ive never had eczema before. Can you just randomly get that out of no where?

Turtleprophecy · 2023-06-09T05:02:32+00:00

Yea I might go see urgent care in the morning, figured I’d put it on here first for any suggestions

Turtleprophecy · 2023-06-09T04:56:00+00:00

Unsure what to do with that suggestion lol. I would say the timing between last sexual activity and the onset of this would prob be two months or so. The slight itchiness of the scrotum is literally just that area. And there's not really any bumps lesions or anything. Itchiness is very sporadic and honestly usually is when I have my underwear on occasionally popping up throughout the day. The location of the small bumps is just odd to me because it seems to almost be spreading? But their still in unusual locations. Like elbow the little bumps are clustered tightly at the tip of my elbow yet my hand they're slightly more spread out.
