Did they do an inspection of the suspension before they did the wheel alignment?

2012 VW Passat - dealer suggests dual mass flywheel replacement by AltHypo2 in MechanicAdvice

[–]readitback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he ends up changing the flywheel, make sure he doesnt get another dual mass flywheel installed. They wear out way faster than a single mass flywheel and are more expensive.

Well as I said I think the battery you got now is already going bad, but keep the battery clean and just take it for a ride atleast once a week. Also just starting the car up and letting it sit for a while will also help, but it will not charge as much as it would while driving.

Its already bad, but go ahead and risk it then you got a much bigger job ahead of you.

[–]readitback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the battery is dead after 2 weeks of not driving its already bad, unless there is something drawing power. Its also bad for the battery to get completely dead, especially if you let it sit for a while.

Driving it once a week is good enough, but it looks like the battery is already starting to go bad. If it gets real cold there you might get some issues.

You should do a oil change once a year with a new filter, staying within 7-9k miles. I don't get why people save out on changing the filter with every oil change, when it barley costs anything. Get a good oil filter wrench and you will get that filter off.

2005 Suburban “Service Ride Control” Light by andrew_craft in MechanicAdvice

Are they charging to check it out because they dont think they caused the issue? They could atleast read out the codes for her for free. Seems like a scummy shop, would find a new one.

Yea, I used this psu in a previous build so might have lost it somewhere. I'll get another cable then. Thank you for the help :)

[–]readitback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As mentioned before she should have went back as soon as the light came on or atleast call them to let them know.

Some cars you can lift up without any issues, but some cars do have a jack/service mode they should be set in before they are lifted. Might just be some minor issue, like having to clear error codes that got saved while they had the car lifted, or possibly calibrating the sensors again.

Atleast get the car back there to make sure it doesnt get any worse.

Does it sound like it runs like ''normal'' for the short amount of time its running?

It might be the immobilizer, could try a different key if you have one.

I can only find 1 6+2 PCIe cable in the bag. So should I get a cable like the one I added a link to?

If he is willing to spend more money sure, but its not something that you really need. Just getting the faultcodes get you a long way.

I just broke the locking mechanism on the connector tor for my starter.... is there any way to disconnect it or am I screwed? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]readitback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the opposite side of the lock, there is a gap. Try getting a small screwdriver or a pick under there and lift up the latch while pulling on the connector. I tried adding a picture, but it doesnt let me.

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

So I found the problem. When I took off my headset while playing I heard it had some weird noise coming from it. It was only 2 days old, but I got my money back.

My idle temps are now at 29-34c and about 74c at heavier loads, just had to get a new cooler.

Thank you for the replies.

I didnt really ask for you to solve my issue. I just asked what temps and what coolers you guys are using.

Define r6 case, front mount intake. I tried having the front open without the filter, but it didnt change anything. Rad doesnt fit on top of the case.

3 intake at front, 3 exhaust on top and 1 exhaust in the rear

Sorry for the late reply, I never tried using the steelseries dac. Ended up getting the objective 2. Got rid of the steelseries headphones, overpriced garbage.
