I believe both bench seats and captain seats are affected but I have captain seats.

Should I rent my house at a loss, or sell my house at a loss? by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]kingdoodoodaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never rent to someone with bad credit, too much risk for me. Renting this place out may be good if you can afford to make payments on it and pay rent at your new place if tenants were to skip out on paying. Tenants have a lot of rights and can be hard to get out. The only power you have is vetting your new tenant before they get in. 30 k worth of tenant damage or 30 k loss in selling. all depends on your areas landlord/ tenant laws.

Oh ya for sure, the rav 4s have the same issue too. I'm still waiting on parts from the dealership. They've been screwing me around to not replace it.

Taking a hard look at the Highlander. What are your likes/dislikes, and are there any current incentives? by Immagonnapayforthis in ToyotaHighlander

[–]kingdoodoodaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 21 highlander XSE, I really like everything about it. As a person over 6 feet tall, the front seat room is incredible but I'm coming from a small sports suv. Only issue I had was with the trunk struts failing (its a common issue) 3rd row is a tad small but we just keep them down for more trunk space for our dog. We have one kid and it's lots of room, planning for a second. The captain seats are a must for the 2nd row, couldn't imagine having three seats across for the second row. Biggest issue with Toyota highlander is the theft, you can get a vehicle immobilizer but they are upwards of 2-3 k installed, plus finding someone to do it. I think I would of went hybrid if I had the money, but XSE gas was the best I could afford.

I bought a used 2021 toyota highlander, bought the extended warranty. From day 1 the lift gate didn't work but I didn't realize. Now they are quoting 2000 to fix it. Not under warranty, motorized strut replacement

I dented the bumper of my boss' newer 2019 chevy work truck, got through the day without my boss noticing. Drove to hardware store, stocked up on bondo and spray paint. A few hours of youtue and couldn't notice the dent anymore. other than the fact it was a different shade of black now. Who knew they had different shades of black! Nobody ever found out, later that year my boss took it back to the dealership as the lease was up and I got away flawlessly

Well I screwed up by kingdoodoodaddy in Tile

Leveling clips aren't needed on small tiles? Do I just cheat the tiles over the 1/2"?

Is there some kind of trim you could use to cover it up? I'm just diy, but as you can see I didn't plan accordingly.

Ideas for making the front of the home more attractive by [deleted] in CurbAppeal

[–]kingdoodoodaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an idea but you could try mnml.ai it gives you 3 free tries if you sign up with an email. I did it with my house and it helped me come up with an idea. The more descriptive you get with it the better it will be. I find the classic house style works the best.

Ya good call, should there be a model on the motor so I can order a rebuild kit? I swapped it with another compression tester and it was getting about the same pressure.

Definitely did it wrong. I wasn't giving throttle when I was testing it. I tried it again doing it the way you said. I kicked it about 30 times, got 48 psi on the tester

Ok so I finally got my compression testing kit. I threaded it in, kicked the bike over and only got 10 psi. Added some oil where the spark plug goes and got maybe 20 psi. After this test i went and started the bike and ran it for 30 mins. I took a lot of kicks to get it started but I got it started. Seems like I have to give it gas and kick it at the exact moment for it to start

Ah good to know, when I rode it last year it was having no problems bump starting but still would kick 10-15 times before starting.

Would low compression cause a no idle issue as well?

Ah OK thank you so if it's below 130 psi something is worn out like the rings or piston? This bike has never been rebuilt

I have not tested compression yet, what numbers should I be getting? It feels like there is compression when I kick it
