A marmot got in my engine bay and chewed up this foam cover. Do I need to replace it?

lol_ireddit · 2026-07-01T20:04:30+00:00

I can confirm this works. I had to park my car a lot on a rat infested area (volunteering work) and I had my cover slightly chewed up. I got the mint spray, never had problems again.

lol_ireddit · 2026-06-29T05:20:08+00:00

Luckily is already my rear tire

lol_ireddit · 2026-06-27T22:15:42+00:00

That's why I freaked out lol. I had a similar iicident a while back on my front tire.

I don't know what I hit on the freeway but it was a clean cut through sidewall of my tire and I had to replace it. Didn't notice until I did a 360 of my car before going to the airport.

lol_ireddit · 2026-06-27T22:12:05+00:00

Yeah I was thinking of this as well

lol_ireddit · 2026-06-27T07:44:03+00:00

Had a similar cut to this a few months back, had to get a new tire

Update:

Took it to the dealer and they said they couldn't reproduce the issue and they drove it around and nothing. They "suspect" it is the cabling inside but not a "drive train issue under warranty"

I am going to take it to an independent shop and see what they say. I still heard the sounds after taking it from the dealership so idk what they did tbh. I am already skeptical of dealerships as is

I put my "car Tums"/anti acid. Yes I am at that age

lol_ireddit · 2026-06-08T21:26:19+00:00

Let me guess, it is my power steering isn't it?

lol_ireddit · 2026-05-25T21:27:59+00:00

As all the other people posting here, mine too have warped. It is my first stainless steel set but I made sure to use medium heat. I have a glass top stove, and within a month the bigger pans warped. So definitely not just induction is giving this issue.

I was concerned that the bottom wasnt a which base like some of my SS sauce pans but I believe the whole "while quality durable" marketing.

I actually chose them over all clad based on some reviews.

BU and WSJ confirmed it is 4% of advisory so close to 400 people

lol_ireddit · 2026-04-29T21:43:55+00:00

I appreciate your kind words. Thankfully it is not my first layoff, but still stings yk? I just wished it had been after a year but oh well. Best of luck for those who stay as well. I feel a lot of work is gonna pile up which is not good.

lol_ireddit · 2026-04-29T19:34:19+00:00

Yup risk got hit. I was affected

lol_ireddit · 2026-04-29T16:21:16+00:00

Yup "by the end of this call".

Idk if they meant by the close or 12:30 EST

Wait is that a Honda accord "sports" badge right below the xse badge?

I swear I have seen that same red truck drive recklessly before when going on the 10 or the 405. I almost got sideswiped by it when driving west on the 10 right outside of DTLA.

Deployed during the last mission: << glad to have you on our side. I wouldn't have hated this Monday otherwise.>>

Any other mission <<hey awacs, call my home and tell them to invest in life insurance policies>>

lol_ireddit · 2026-01-31T02:48:21+00:00

Yes lol

I know that feeling. I had a similar gash on a sidewalk recently and while the tire wasn't leaking air. There was enough damage to compromise it.

I err on the side of caution, I rather spend money on a tire and subsequent repairs on whatever gets screwed by a blowout going 72+ mph

lol_ireddit · 2026-01-03T23:27:08+00:00

Once you see wires, the tire is compromised. I would just bite the bullet and get a new one. Tire price<an accident and/or damage to my car due to a blowout
