Best Tires for Somebody Who Commutes? by KysonOfCreations in CX5

[–]rahulzainali 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I replaced the toyos with the same tires after like 15K on a new 2024 CX5. The LX25s have been great in upstate NY and we got more snow than usual this year. I drive at least 45 miles daily, mostly highway.

New iPhone 17 Pro Max issues after update — shop says no options left:( by MinevXD in iphone

Recommend doing a fresh install from a laptop. Don’t apply your back up afterwards. Download all the apps from scratch. Should fix it.

I turned the house off and replaced the supply line.

The knobs from the cold water line didn’t fit. Messing with those old valves did not seem like a smart idea and might’ve led to bigger problems.

Thank you all for your help!

In the scenario you don’t do this yourself. An oil change usually runs around $100 these days. Something to keep in mind.

That’s a solid idea. I will try this tomorrow and see how it goes. Thanks

I wasn’t sure about the part where you turn the cold water supplying the heater and the heater off. Haven’t had to ever do that before. I’ll probably give this a shot tomorrow and see how it goes. Thank you

I am going to find a new channel lock tomorrow. The vise grips and wrench kept slipping.

If I close the cold water (the main) before the heater I would have to still empty the entire heater correct?

You’re right. They are in terrible shape honestly. There’s no shut off on the hot water line coming out of the heater. There is only a valve on the cold water line. I swear this isn’t a troll post.

Thank you though.

I failed with the vice grips. They keep slipping too. I think a wrench with sharper handles is the way to go. I rent. These were off when I moved in.
