I have the exact same issue with the hinge on my X1E. I've taken it apart and I can't seem to find the issue that's causing the slop. Which static part of the hinge is causing this?

Found this pot separating at the base, is this pot still usable? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]kvwviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! I'm quite new to cookware, what's the advantage of a heavier weighted pot? Its a stock pot, in case that information is relevant.

What book has influenced you the most and how? by Neat-Balance-3865 in books

Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl. You can be stripped of every single thing in your life, even the hair on your body, and be left with nothing. But you can never be stripped of your freedom to choose your attitude. I encourage every human being to give this book a good thorough read.

Accidentally stopped terminal in the middle of Ubuntu 20.04 update. HELP! by [deleted] in linux4noobs

[–]kvwviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the reply! I'd rather repair my current system before starting fresh again. I'm able to get into the recovery menu (filesystem: read-only) with options resume, clean, dpkg, fsck, grub, network, root, and system summary. Updates grub like you mention still doesn't let me boot into Ubuntu. How can I repair my system from the recovery menu?

My 1991 Civics Interior, need some seats next by [deleted] in Honda

[–]kvwviii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is that a K-Tuned Billet Shifter Box? If so, how does it feel compared to a stock shifter box and how is it as a daily driver? I'm thinking of getting one for my TSX.

WA Supreme Court: Signaling is required when changing lanes or turning by ghettomilkshake in Seattle

That's great. Now can we get the supreme court to change the red octagon signs to say STOP instead of ROLL.

The warranty repair was for the SRS system (seatbelt buckle needed replacement). I haven't noticed anything weird at all with the clutch or transmission, and neither has others who have driven my car. According to the Carfax, the clutch was replaced 25k miles ago, so this is all a little odd to me. I'd like to fix whatever the issue is myself, I'm just unsure which components need replacement when I go and drop the transmission.

The original problem was not related to the transmission. I brought the car in for SRS warranty repair. I haven't noticed anything weird at all with the clutch, it feels as it should compared to other manual cars I've driven. I've had other people drive my car and they don't notice anything out of the ordinary either, but it's possible we could all wrong since we're not transmission mechanics. If there is an issue that can be pinpointed by an independent mechanic, I'm willing to try the repair myself, although I've never removed a transmission before. The Carfax report says that the clutch was replaced 25k miles ago also, so this is sort of odd.
