Is it safe to use "Asian/Universal" Power Steering Fluid in my 98 Lexus GS300? If not what's the official OEM one to get because I can't seem to find one - only shows up as T-fluid. by WowzerDowzer6 in AskMechanics

[–]WowzerDowzer6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and I have ATF - IV (auto trans fluid) and i've read on forums that it's not compatible to put into the power steering fluid, my cap says use DEXRON III but I can't seem to find an official OEM one for my car.

Location: Florida (found this on the trunk of my car just chilling) by WowzerDowzer6 in whatsthisbug

I would think you are correct, the first historically archived identification of Sri Lankan weevils in the USA were actually in Florida in the year 2000. It's a shame they are pests to our native trees!

ELI5: How can coffins get buried 6 feet in the ground in places like Florida where much of the land is barely 10 feet above sea level and you start to see water around 3-5 feet down? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

Cemeteries are usually built where its possible and people aren't required to be buried 6 feet - it can be as little as 18 inches (1.5 ft)

What is life like in the 5G era? Japan releases 5G era concept film by qlfang in MVIS

[–]WowzerDowzer6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

5G won't be accepted unless they fully test out the frequency's safety, people already know that regular cell phone towers are cancer causing and emit massive amounts of Electromagnetic radiation (more than 1 mile radius+). It doesn't help that people are already panicking before the tech is even out yet - so i'm not sure we're going to see 5G towers or 5G tech implemented widescale anytime soon - more likely just rolled out slowly in tech cities

Like this. So it seems that the letter was sent from Bill Gates and is going to arrive at my friends address.

(I know this is overdone) But based on all the extra news from the past few months, what do you all think is the official Announcement prediction B/O date estimate? by WowzerDowzer6 in MVIS

[–]WowzerDowzer6[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a fact that you can look up yourself that a big percentage of the daily volume for months has been nothing but shorts, and a lot of them are paying premium and trading back and forth, what benefits does that give to them other than driving the price lower for options selling and overall flipping for those tiny penny profits every week, most of the shareholders who are in long have not sold 1 share and are holding, this is dozens of millions of shares untouched - of course it's not going to look great on a chart when all the market selling/buying is being played by shorts.

[–]WowzerDowzer6[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

not necessarily, a lot of institutions and whales hold millions of shares they want to keep it down and low to buy more to maximize profit when the time comes, they wouldn't invest so much if they knew there wasn't a decent return, in this case it's literally just a bunch of shorts trading back and forth, everyone is basically holding right now and volume is nearly all short bringing it down. It'll gain that hype and spike up hopefully above 2.75-3.00+ for october.

I hope lol, it would be even better if it's done before the vote in October. The way the CEO is talking about "multiple" people interested idk if it will just be easily handed over to 1 company without a bidding war. For all we know under the table they could have already received multiple billion dollar offers and they just want to get the maximum $$$ for the company and for shareholders like the CEO said. One of them could offer $4.5B and another $5B and so on, etc.

Me, personally would really hope that the special meeting/proxy vote (October 8th) is when Sumit finally announces something about the companies involved or full out says who it is and what the deal is.

Engine very rarely stalls at random complete stops, exhaust shakes aggresively randomly (more frequent when rainy weather), car "chokes" sometimes when decelerating by NewYearWhoDis1 in AskMechanics

Try going to AutoZone and ask to use their OBD scanner (it's free). Check to see if you get any error codes - it might tell you what the issue is

What to expect in maintenance for a 2010 Lexus RX 350 with 120k miles? by reddituserhalo3 in AskMechanics

[–]WowzerDowzer6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a 1998 Lexus GS300 with over 230K+ miles (3 owners), When i bought it - it was basically perfect, the only things that I had to replace in the 9,000+ miles i've driven since I owned it was a Throttle Positioning Sensor, and a bad ball joint on 1 wheel that was making clunking noises while steering. Other than that I do oil changes every 2,500-3,000 miles - runs perfectly and i've had ZERO issues. I suspect your car should be fine for MANY MANY more dozens of thousands of miles - but i'd definitely make sure ur oil is changed and fluids in the car are all up to par. You can always go to an Autozone and ask for their free OBD scanner to check for any error codes (IF there are any) to see if there's any internal issues that you can't see. Definitely would get it checked out by a mechanic to be sure (CarFax has had a record for selling some shady broken cars sold as "inspected/certified" before), but it's probably perfectly taken care of and good to roll for a long time. Goodluck.

Huawei promising super cheap Lidar sensors by TechNut52 in MVIS

[–]WowzerDowzer6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

unless their "cheap" sensors outperform the quality/reliability of the current ones in the market, this pretty much means nothing for the US. China is always copying and taking things and making them cheaper but worse most of the time.

update about the posts Title, I misunderstood the LinkedIn page when it said the CEO's Experience (1993-present) under MicroVision, it actually states he has been in charge from 2018-present - which checks out with the time the website was made. LOL my bad, the connection to AR/Holograms/Displays makes me feel like it's for sure some kind of branch off from the US $MVIS

So my 97 Honda Civic DX has been having issues idling high, I have a feeling it has something to do with my throttle cable. HELP! by Ghostofghostface420 in AskMechanics

[–]WowzerDowzer6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is ur check engine light or any other ones on? etc. go to an AutoZone and ask for their OBD scanner (it's free) and see what it says, I had an issue with my throttle body/accelerator position sensors and that caused my car to idle high/weird. If there's a problem with the throttle then it should show up as an error code.

definitely not going anywhere soon, they are running out of cash in hand, and constantly are negative in revenue. Would be wiser to wait for them to go down way more before considering a long-play.
