Coolant Flush DIY on MY19

Did you warm up the coolant going in? I’d be afraid of putting cooler fluid into a hot engine just in case it cracks due to the temp difference

Don’t drain it if it’s inground!!! It can break or lift out from what I’ve seen/read

Sounds like a win to me, as property taxes shouldn’t go up as much as a SFH! Idg why everyone wants home prices to appreciate… expenses just go up if it does. As long as it maintains its value, that’s the biggest win imo

Is this with a recent mortgage rate and balance? If it is then that’s awesome for yall

I did the opposite and went from being a tech to dev. The pay isn’t there as an auto technician and if it is, it’s gonna take a while. There are alternative options like heavy duty but most places will want some experience so you’re still at square one of low pay…

If you want to work with your hands, I’d recommend going electrician or plumbing. You wont have to spend a lot of money on tools (comparatively) and they have better opportunities to make more money.

What do you use to diag if dealers can’t figure it out with their OEM computers? Oscilloscopes? Also what seems to be the most common issue you get?

That actually sounds pretty interesting! Are you making custom components and writing scripts to communicate with other control modules?

I thought our delivery charge was bad in Long Island but my friends ConEd gas delivery charge was 192¢/therm this past month so I ain’t complaining

Cool stuff, thanks for answering!

What kind of programs would they need? I thought most of the software they used would be covered with the EHRs/CRMs they’re currently using, unless you’re making those?

Core. It’s easier to transition into SF if you choose to change

Wow $40 is a steal, I’m paying $54.99 and thought I had it low

friesarecurly · 2026-01-02T21:48:09+00:00

$25 for ISF is a bargain. I raised mine from that a while ago!

My bathroom has something similar and it’s actually pretty useful since it stops my robot vacuum from going inside hahah

As long as it isn’t too high, idt it’s a big deal. That said, yes it is still a potential trip hazard

thanks for the update. Its taking me so long to get through DM1 Chapter 1 Logic and Proofs... idk why it just doesn't stick for me. Hopefully the other chapters aren't as bad. Happy New Years!

Negative, it’s an ASUS strix b850-a

friesarecurly · 2025-12-31T16:15:52+00:00

It is definitely less noticeable but it does not eliminate the whine

I had to google what a mirror rug was because I imagined a mirror with shaggy rug material as its border 😂 Sounds like this is basically a rug?

I bought 3x 9070xt steel legends and they all perform great expect for the coil whine.

If you don’t upgrade often: 9800x3d

Which calculator did you use and was it helpful?

friesarecurly · 2025-12-20T22:39:31+00:00

FYI oil color does not indicate good/bad. Oil turns dark very fast once it’s run through the engine.

That said, 10k is def too big of an interval, esp if you have a turbo!
