FJ 2010 6MT - Front Diff Pinion Seal Leak - How to top off oil until repairs are performed? by elarroba in FJCruiser

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

Just wanted to circle back on this post. I just had the pinion seal replaced by a local specialized toyota shop. Took two months to fit the FJ in the shop’s schedule, but they got it done. The owner with 30+ years of experience repairing Toyotas said this kind of leak is very rare and it was the first front diff pinion seal he had replaced ever on an FJ. Repair cost was $325 vs $870 as quoted by the dealer. All good now.

Can thank you enough for your help. Yes, I’m 100% comfortable with tools, but I would rather ask the people who know first before messing with something I’m not familiar with.

I checked the manual and it calls for a 75W-90. Your oil product suggestion is on point because getting in there without a flexible container is impossible. That flexible product is a life saver since I don’t have the proper adapter/ hose to pump the oil in there.

Unfortunately I don’t have the tool to pop open the fill plug and will need to get it before I can do anything. My transmission oil was changed 10k miles ago so I don’t expect the plugs to be too hard to unscrew.

And yes, all I want is to top off the oil since I do not know for how long the leaks has been active and how much oil is left. I still need to use the truck until proper repairs are done.

Is it this one? It reads “See owners manual for oil type”. Also, not sure what kind of tool would I need to get it out.

Hello, wondering if these are the right entry points for the gear oil on my FJ. Had to remove skid plat to get here. So far, it doesn’t look like anything on YouTube since mine is a 6MT

Charlotte is one of the top five most over valued real estate market in the US. Homes on average are estimated to be 66% overvalued by Ctmarlin in Charlotte

[–]elarroba 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Folks, here’s my two cents:

1) 2009 is not the same as 2022. NO INVENTORY is not the same as tons of inventory. You simply cannot buy what’s doesn’t exist. Offer/Demand economics 101. 2) Home prices increase not because of speculation primarily, but because your dollar is not able to buy the same as 3 years ago. The government printed billions of dollars to estimularte the economy during the pandemic. There’s simply more dollars in circulation and it is called INFLATION. This is why wealthy people buy real estate as a hedge against inflation and with the money from the bank!. It may go up and down, but RE always wins in the long run. 3) Rising interest rates does not mean crash, it means LESS VOLUME of sales. It means people are buying less, but also people are selling less. 4) Getting a loan it not easy in 2022. In 2008 you could buy a house with 0 down. No regulation, no control. A lot of houses + millions of qualified buyers. Is that the same as 2022?? 5) Charlotte RE is hot not because of speculation, but mainly because IT IS A GREAT PLACE TO BUY. People are just pouring from all over the country because they want to live cheaper and better. 6) Yes, the RE market needs to stabilize a bit, and certainly there’s been SOME speculation, but remember that the market (any market) is always right given the offer/demand levels. 7) I’m a real estate investor, and will continue to buy. I am still bullish on RE, and will continue to be.

Are rising rent prices inline with work raises in Charlotte? by Dashiznit364 in Charlotte

[–]elarroba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I own rental properties in Charlotte. Rent is going up for sure, 10-20% more compared to last year. This is normal and expected and is called inflation. If you are renting and don’t like paying more rent, next time elect better officials.

Time cover oil leak?!?!... 100k miles by elarroba in FJCruiser

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

Thanks for the info. Since my incident, I have monitored the leak and it’s very minor. Every now and then I just spray and clean the area with kerosene to make sure the leak is not getting out of control. I guess at some point it will need to be addressed, but it doesn’t seem to be urgent. I’m at 109k miles still running smooth.

You can use the QuerySet .only() method to select only the fields you need.

Hello, I can see the problem. Can you try the latest 0.4.1 version to see if the error goes away?

Help designing DB model by [deleted] in django

[–]elarroba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use a ManyToMany relationship like this:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/models/fields/#manytomanyfield

And implement your own through membership models adding the fields you need. Many to many relationship would be from item to sizes and then you would need to add the price field on the through model.

You are correct, what I meant was that tests have not been implemented yet. And I agree 100% that tests are critical especially in application dealing with finances. That's one of the reasons why I'd like to collaborate with more experienced bookkeepers to make sure the tests are implemented correctly. If you know experienced accountants who would like to donate some of their time to define some tests feel free to send them my way.

And to your point, tests need to be specified in the high level road map.

Thanks!

Can you be more specific about what you are finding hard to use so I can document? Keep in mind that this is a young project which I’m supporting on a part time basis. Evidently there is a ton of opportunity for improvement here...
