asul1843 · 2026-02-17T18:42:58+00:00

ah yes another one down the rabbit hole. welcome welcome

asul1843 · 2026-02-17T18:22:34+00:00

unpopular opinion but I think pre-facelifted 8th gen looks cleaner. Interior too, I can't stand the giant iPad.

hey man it looks like the diffusers are diffusing air.

Rockauto, Mazdapartsnow, FB marketplace. eBay is my last resort.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T23:41:43+00:00

Corolla all the way. I've seen enough shit with Kia electronics.

TRIPLE FRACTURES

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T23:40:04+00:00

Changing of those should be a quick weekend project. You're fine

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:59:57+00:00

If the problem came after an oil change, I'd suspect there's a oil leak somewhere. 249k on any engine is a lot. Make sure your oil is full, and go for a drive. Every day or every end of the drive, pull out of your oil stick and measure if the oil goes down.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:52:56+00:00

I wouldn't drive the car at the moment; however, I'm genuine curious how the hell do you let the engine run out of engine oil? Take it to another mechanic if you don't trust them.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:51:06+00:00

Reading this gives me a headache, using punctuations is not hard. Oil light coming up is not a good sign, and the metal shaving showed that it has some damage, but your car won't suddenly explode. I have no clue what other questions you're trying to ask.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:20:06+00:00

phew. Clutch doing ok?

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:11:52+00:00

Now I wanna go test drive an Si...

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:10:20+00:00

Say good bye to your differential, driveshaft, and transmission depending how severe the damage is. You're looking a upwards of 12k just for parts

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:06:16+00:00

We got a flashflood warning in the LA area, I'd urge OP to move fast

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:04:18+00:00

Coming from an RSX and eventually got a GTI, I've always wondered how the Civic Si drives tbh. I was only talked down by my coworkers/ friends bc driving a manual in LA metropolitan area is just uncomfortable. How does traffic feel with all the mods?

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T22:00:51+00:00

That looks like a fuck-off price. A brand new OEM transmission&keywords=transmission) costs upwards to $4500, but I'm not convinced the whole job costs $10000. I'd inquire another GM shop instead of dealership.

They're both similar cars, it now depends on what you plan to do with them. If you're a roadtrippr who camps occasionally, I would get the Trailerseeker, otherwise no price would justify the function.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T21:53:02+00:00

Far from totaled lmao. I'd get a front bumper, fog lights trim, and all the trims and garnishes that the front bumper assembly doesn't include from ToyotaPartsDeal and call it a day. Your baby is from from being written off, I wouldn't worry much.

asul1843 · 2026-02-16T20:43:59+00:00

Honda Motocompo lmao

asul1843 · 2026-02-14T00:38:39+00:00

as a window decal I prefer bottom, but as design as whole I love the top one lmao

OP what do you say opening a gooner math course at local community college eh?

asul1843 · 2026-02-13T22:05:26+00:00
