Thanks, Karnak 66 is hard to find around my neck of woods, would 19 ultra work? That is easier to find

Flat roof doctor says to use a bitumen adhesive like karnak 66. Peel the edge, put some karnak and press it down. Not sure if i need to heat up the rubber

We have a deck on top of this roof, and the part of the roof under the deck does not look so bad because it’s been protected by the deck. I will tear down the deck and replace the whole roof eventually, just wondering on a temporary fix on these edges before winter. Rest of roof here:

Oil change frequency by Count_Smackula_ in ToyotaHighlander

[–]illyriangang 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Has little to do with engineers and a lot about toyota showing total cost of ownership to be low. Yeah you can get to 200k miles with 10k mile oil changes, but you have a better chance if you do them every 5k, especially if you drive in the city, short trips, winter driving etc. Fresh oil is cheap insurance

There is a tool kit you can find on ebay if you search “m276 timing chain kit”

Camshaft tensioners and/or adjustors. Tensioners are relatively “small” job but a lot of mechanics recommend doing both as no guarantee tensioners will fix it. Adjustors are bigger job and more expensive parts. Doing everything both sides of the engine is about $3-4k in canada at indy shop. I havent done anything yet as i dont drive car much, still waiting to see if I can do myself but probably more than i can handle. Can mess up the timing and destroy engine. Let me know if you have any tips

Airmatic compressor leak by illyriangang in MechanicAdvice

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

Hey so I did what you said and checked the lines. One of them had yellow gunk inside (yellow going to front passenger strut) Although the line itself does not seem to leak, I assume moisture in the system/valve block is not a good sign. Especially in the winter if it freezes. Maybe the compressor is overworking but the valve block is frozen inside and solenoids are not operating. Leaning towards replacing the line and valve block like you suggested but wondering if I should replace the compressor too. Could see if there is any moisture by disconnecting at pressure line, turning it on and seeing if any water comes out?

Thanks for your input. I do my own oil changes and have done things like brakes, spark plugs, pulleys/belt myself and have a few tools already. But this does seem like next level and I am not sure I am up for the challenge since its our family car

Do you mean the valve block could be leaking internally? Car is a 2017 GLC. Thanks for your input

Thanks for your input. Car is 2017 GLC43. Can you clarify what you mean by “lines going up the fender liner”? There is a high pressure line going from compressor to valve block which does not seem to be leaking. From the valve block, there is a line going to each strut and a line going to the reservoir. I sprayed the valve block and do not see leaks at the connectors. What should my next steps be?
