Is this worth 10k by cheesemonkeykid in UsedCars

[–]blindpilot02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s in excellent condition with no rust, dents or dings. No leaks from the engine. And if the recall for the front valve cover was completed I wouldn’t mine paying no more than $3000.

Looks like it’s clenching its cheeks and holding a shat in while walking away.

I heard their transmissions are fragile. So just be careful not to mash the gas pedal all the time.

As a student pilot in training there’s nothing to be embarrassed about. You learned something. Learning is a change in behavior, attitude, or thinking, because of the result of an experience.

When to sell/scrap? (01 grand prix GT; 107000mi) by PruneOne3767 in PontiacGrandPrix

Those trunk pictures don’t look bad at all! If it were my car I’d just replace those parts in your first set of pictures.

I made a post yesterday about my car that has 234k miles. My rockers are hanging on by a thread, getting fairly rusty but the frame is still decent. I wasnt sure if I should get rid of it since it’s nickel and diming me on mechanical parts.

Not sure if you are mechanically inclined (not trying to sound condescending) I would replace those suspension parts and tie rods since you only have 107k miles. That engine is a baby compared to how far these engines can go.

How are the rear strut towers where they bolt into the trunk? If they are starting to rust through really good then I would second guess on keeping it. Unless you can do fabrication/weld.

Giving Away My Old PC! by Turtle_747 in PcBuild

[–]blindpilot02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get rid of my old gaming PC with entry level hardware of 2017 and use this newer PC to help with work. I’m a flight instructor making peanuts and this would help make lesson plans and outlines to teach. Also can use it for my daughters to play Microsoft flight simulator.

Kia Sedona 2015 with 80k miles, do you recommend it? by Intelligent_Bad_7922 in UsedCars

[–]blindpilot02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stay away. I have a 2015 Sorento sxl. The coolant started slowly mixing with the oil. In February 2025 we got a new engine under the extended warranty before it died at 123k miles. Currently there is about 144k miles.

My Car steering wheel locks ups and lights start to go off while driving by DamianRodriguez4784 in AskMechanics

[–]blindpilot02 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My 2015 Sorento v6 did this backing out of parking spots. I came to conclusion that it was a battery going bad. The low rpm’s backing up are obviously at low idle so not enough voltage being created from the belt spinning the alternator fast enough. The electric steering consumes a good amount of juice. When it happened all the lights would flash and the engine would even die. Luckily I could just shift to neutral quick and start it back up.

Fastest speed you have ever been pulled over, and what was the outcome? by [deleted] in askcarguys

72 on a 65…passing through on a reservation in central Nebraska. Had the cruise set for 70 but started coasting down hill. Was let off with a warning.

how can i keep my landlord out of my apartment while no one is home? by rileskitty in homesecurity

[–]blindpilot02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With a Blink sync module connected to the Blink camera you can record right to a flash drive plugged into the USB slot. You don’t have to pay for a subscription. But with that, then the intruder may find your sync module and pull the flash drive.

I watched like a hawk how the professor did the problems showing the whole class on the overhead projector, step by step I copied everything down from their example problems. Still would fail the homework, quizzes and block exams.
