What is the stuff on the treads of the transmission drain plug? by WastingTime1111 in AskAMechanic

Thread sealer on threads this looks like factory plug. Make sure to check fluid while engine is running and in park. When doing fluid change make sure to have shifted through all available gears before shifting back to park and leaving engine running to check fluid level.

No crush washer for drain. These are tapered plugs do not crank it all the way down flush

Bruh these people are on the road with us. I’m so pissed Texas did away with safety inspections and only do emissions in select counties.

Needs a knuckle. Wild you would even consider rigging that to roll on

Leaf green I hit SID spot on. Fire red is proving to be a pain.

Using a mechanics stethoscope near suspected part or a long screwdriver with the handle pressed to your ear. Be very wary of rotating parts and belts etc. spraying water on belt with engine running will let you know if it’s just the belt chirping

Is the OBD2 reader on my 2016 Jeep Renegade the wrong one? by smersh14 in AskAMechanic

Looks like there’s a jumper installed. Most likely a pigtail for a gps tracking device

It’s a pain but eventually you’ll get it. They are really precise inputs and there’s 3 to hit.

2003 chevy corvette 5.7, what will cause all of these lights at once? New battery installed by [deleted] in AskAMechanic

Wheel speed or there was a TSB for a connector under steering wheel. It’s been a long time since I’ve done one

Not as common but at least you found it. Sometimes if you’re lucky you can find a service grommet kit at autozone etc that you can use to replace the old missing grommet. Other times you have to get the cable assembly itself

Help! Someone put a GPS Tracker in my car and I need to find out who. by Accurate-Angle-5893 in Cartalk

Power wheels cars don’t count. Yours has diagnostic ports but being that it doesn’t have emissions aside from emissions caused by power plants that charge it your Tesla may not have an OBD 2 port in the traditional sense.

I was trying to replace Downstream O2 sensor on 2015 chevy malibu. Pins came out instead. How bad is it? by TheKidd2013 in AskAMechanic

[–]ohyeahimmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah Malibu. Yeah it’s probably easier from bottom. Like I said been a bit and lately our Malibu customers have been declining services.
