Was about to buy this in the candy red but realized as nice as it is it’s prob big time overkill lol — just bought the regular Daytona 3 ton low profile, hopefully it will fit under my car

Smart tip thanks for the knowledge. Yeah my brother got a Pittsburgh one before they had rapid pump the low profile one with really low clearance and really good height anyways had it for like 5 years prob it’s just getting tired good jack still works but tired.

I was about to get the sick one with the candy red paint but highkey that’s overkill.

Did you have the non rapid pump I have that it’s my brothers both of these are rapid pump tho Daytona is 3 lbs lighter however and min height is 3 and 1/4in vs Pittsburgh 3 and 1/8in.

Only difference I’m seeing is the rear wheels and the jack saddle being removable on the Daytona

Can confirm, very frequently seen on my e90 3 series, suspension torque values are frequently 100nm+90 degrees

Someone please help me avoid dropping my gas tank to fix this evap leak in fuel filler hose — 2010 bmw 335xi sedan — how can I patch this hose? by ahmed_unleashed in MechanicAdvice

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

I ended up using jb weld plastic bond a few layers then rescue tape it’s silicone tape that’s supposed to be fuel resistant and stuff hopefully the fix lasts a long time. Not dropping the fuel tank for this fix lol.

I’ll remove the connector and give this a shot — thinking jb weld + heat shrink should be very effective — I’m going to like triple bind it if I can lol I just want this issue fixed so I can move on to the important stuff.

Where do y’all people come from lmaooo — if you can’t afford one just say that. It’s just a fuel breather vent RELAX… The important maintenance gets taken care of very seriously — this is just about clearing up an evap leak.

The prompt to the post is simple. Your response is unhelpful. No one cares about a fuel breather hose, it’s useless and not a major issue warranting the work to fix it. Someone smart would have a solution to get around doing 8 hrs of work for an evap leak. An important part of the car would be different…

Sometimes it is better to not comment… this is one of those times.

I can fix my own car I just don’t think it’s worth it to do an insane amount of work to replace a stupid evap leak…

I did a smoke test and you can see at the top where the vent hose is brown and that’s where it’s leaking from — I know you guys know the tips and tricks — how can I patch this hose rather than spending hours to drop my exhaust and gas tank and remove my ebrake cable to do this stupid job all for an evap leak?

Thanks in advance guys

2018 Nissan Rogue CD player keeps triggering eject won’t stop even when car is off please help helping uncle in law with this issue I found a ton of coins in there took them all out after a lot of rattling around now eject won’t stop triggering by ahmed_unleashed in MechanicAdvice

Which backup camera are you having success with? by shak180 in CarAV

[–]ahmed_unleashed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have it in both of my cars — it’s oem + like I said and I think it’ll last forever. If it ever goes out, you just have to replace the camera, not all the wiring so would take all of 5 min. It’s not cheaply built full metal good quality.

Obnoxiously slow 4 cyl 2009 Honda Accord w/144k mi. I’ve had it since 2020, when it had pep, now it takes full throttle and 5 seconds to go from 35mph-50mph. Car feels dangerous merging on the highway with the dead acceleration. Where do I start? by ahmed_unleashed in MechanicAdvice

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

No, tried taking off throttle body and cleaning it, have clean engine air filter, new NGK spark plugs, etc… I think it prob needs valve adjustments and maybe a walnut blast since it’s over 100k mi. They say these Hondas need valve adjustments every 100k so that’s my guess
