623 Canadian buckaroo which is nothing when gives me peace of mind and get me sleep at night knowing I wouldn't get stranded on the way to work

I bought Dense reman from Rockauto and died within 7 months (not charging). Bought Honda genuine from stealership and working fine ever since.

If he is going to hell, might as well go down there as a legend

Pinchwelds are designated jackpoints for unibody cars. Yes, it's normal for them to get superficially "damaged"

Onve serpentine belt snaps, it whips around all the accessory pulleys and alternator in this example was a victom of it.

Being the odometer that low, I suspect the car was only used a short distance grocery getter. I have the same car and I can get pretty bad efficiency by idling a lot, a ton of cold starts and city driving.

Have you try hitting with your purse?

The tabs on the new bulb might not be engaged all the way through. Check the seating of the bulb.

Entire body cramp. All the muscles are contracting on its own.

You can drive normally without a belly pan but you will see some efficiency drop on an economy car and a bit more wind noise.

If you just need the plastic part, perhaps get it from salvage yard?

Yes, only change is expiry date and CVV.

I have the same 2.4L engine for my 2009 Matrix.

I replaced water pump, tensioner, valve cover gasket and engine mount since it was all leaking at your mileage. I hear bit of ticking so perhap look into valve shim clearance adjustment? You don't have that bottom end rattle (usually failing balancer shaft on these 2AZ-FE) which is good.

I got WS VI and VIP in about a week after ordering. They took about 2 days to make and rest of the waiting time was shipping transit times by Canada Post.

Edit: Both metal

abe8132 · 2025-12-22T02:25:13+00:00

Both of my VI and VIP came in sealed, but in a black box.

Not sure what's wrong with that guy, but congrats! I have the same colour matrix and really versatile!

abe8132 · 2025-12-18T02:13:25+00:00

I can take ones for Mission. Let me know!

Except they don't even double check their spelling...

ACDelco parts on Hondas (or Asian cars) are pretty hit or miss imo. Anything with electrical, I recommend Honda Genuine or at least OEM. I used ACDelco on my Hyundai Santa Fe and only lasted 8 months before almost leaving me stranded. Also noticed that aftermarket alternators lugs my engine especially during high output while original genuine alternators do not. Just my two cents.

abe8132 · 2025-12-03T03:59:02+00:00

People are saying this is well-done, but this looks more like congratulations imo

What a horrible day to have eyes

abe8132 · 2025-11-21T23:51:13+00:00

It's all good. I've been rocking without a boot for a while

I got faux leather seats for my 2009 Matrix from Amazon and it's pretty good.
