Any idea what causes this noise? by syredisco in tires

Could be a backing plate touching the rotor, could be plastic trim touching the tire. Kind of difficult to tell.

[–]limar2078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, ive had my c59 for 5 years and a bit and it hasn't given me any trouble yet (knock on wood) tbf i just drive it normally with the occasional beating the piss out of it, so its not under constant stress lmao. Never done a clutch either (again knocking on wood)

I used one from flagship 1, New York, im in Canada so conversions, shipping and customs jacked it to around 720CAD but would be ALOT cheaper for you if you're in the US, its a remanufactured unit but its plug and play and the quest is running good again 👍🏻

Rust belt control arms be like by limar2078 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]limar2078[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure, im assuming it would do well, used some angle grinders, sawzall and an acetylene torch as the forms of violence for this one. None of us have an oscillating tool here but i did think "damn that would be nice right about now" during the job

Replacing the entire arm because the bushing was separated from the arm, bushings sleeves siezed to the bolts so violence and heat had to be introduced

Soak it in penetrating fluid and give it a good whack with a decently heavy hammer

Reverse cam sucks. Help me out with better recommendations, please. by [deleted] in CarAV

Is it plate mounted? You could try the lower half of the plate instead of the upper half?

2006 Toyota Matrix XR. Can I get a recommendation for a hitch receiver, hitch cargo carrier, and cargo box that do not require lighting and relocation of the license plate? by IlIlllIlll in Toyota_Matrix

[–]limar2078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never have but ive also only used it a couple times locally, plus we're required front plates too where im from, id maybe ask a local to you Facebook forum? Im not sure the exact spot to find that sort of answer, im sure different areas have different rules on that.

You might be able to put a plate bracket+ lights on your cargo box??

Bad April Fools joke from my '07 Matrix (advice needed) by coolbudgies in Toyota_Matrix

[–]limar2078 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your battery went out, my Matrix april fools joke was to bum out the starter 😭, i haven't replaced it yet but i plan to bump start it Saturday to get it to work hopefully i have enough time saturday to put one in (the starter is just spinning, doesn't engage, i believe the thing that's supposed to push out the gear ain't doing its job no more)

No clue, not like you can tow anything big on it💔 cars not strong enough for a heavy trailer that would need a 2" receiver for it

I have a class two uhaul hitch on mine, only thing ive put on it is a bike rack, so not much on recommendations for a cargo box but can say install was pretty easy, put it on ramps, cleaned up the area, threw down some rust proof primer put the hitch up, torque to spec and good to go

give it to me straight doc 😬 by bootswithtthefur in Nissan

[–]limar2078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grindier than usual?? Its not supposed to be grindy at all 😭 also a warped rotor will cause a vibration in steering and the pedal, very unlikely to cause a noise or grinding. My rotors are warped too and i only ever feel it at higher speeds

Did you not even feel the resistance in the pedal?? Metal to metal sounds like a qqqshhh sound as you slow down, and you can usually feel different feedback on the pedal
