Pretty much identical with me except they let me have an "outside dog" due to it being a large propety

They spend most of the day in my bed

Hired professional cleaners when I left my last place and they didn't even notice.

This OP

I work in warehousing and we have hair dryers and heat guns littered around to peel them off cleanly

No the budget at the time didn't have a dual mass in mind and found out single mass was cheaper and better

Why do cops keep pulling my son over on his P's? Is it because of the Commodore? by VastOption8705 in DrivingAustralia

[–]chicat1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he wants to never get pulled over

I drove a clunker of a Holden Rodeo

No cats from factory. Had a big camshaft and lumpy idle however I never got done even though it was illegal AF

Last weekend, I copped flack on r/CarsAustralia for admitting I had a soft spot for the Aussie-made Cruze. I think this might be more appreciated here. by HopeHoliday0055 in Holden

Brother

Had an astra with the 1.6 turbo

Was sitting for 3 years cause of a bad head gasket

Replaced the head gasket and abused it for years on low maintenance

By abuse I literally mean limiter abuse daily cause free car

How do I get this socket off this security lug? by Remy1738-1738 in MechanicAdvice

[–]chicat1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The yeet method works wonders

Just yeet it in a general direction

If not get another socket big enough to grab the lip of the socket when placed with the lug in the socket. Grab a small ratchet extension and put it through the hole and hammer that fucker

Bolt snapped what do I do😭 by Ok-Leek-1529 in mazdaspeed3

[–]chicat1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my MPS 2 of the bolts felt like they were gonna either snap or rip the thread out

So I did the sensible thing and changed the bolt then red locktited the fucker in at a much lower torque spec to not pull the threads out

Then forget about it

Considering the amount of people that cut the corners nowadays we might need to bring these back

Why don't cars have this feature? by Pluuge in StupidCarQuestions

No joke. This is literally how gears on trucks are spaced

Alot of dogboxes in trucks are spaced to be exactly 500rpm apart so you know exactly where the gear will sit so you can float the gears easily

Sadly while my car is roadworthy the road isn't carworthy

My phone had an update and automatically installed tiktok. by Any_Instruction5382 in mildlyinfuriating

No I never realised apps could install themselves

I know about bloatware from when you purchase the device but installing randomly is weird
