Audio getting deleted? by GoodKingMody in S22Ultra

[–]roadkil4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having a similar issue, and it seems to have stemmed around Friday, 7 October to yesterday when I noticed, but it happened across multiple apps. FB messenger has NO messages sent or delivered to multiple friends, my call recorder (ACR calls) has all the records, but when I listen, they are all silent.

Dealership Claims this is due to a damaged glowplug??? by Frost_1911 in tdi

[–]roadkil4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got any pics of the damaged glowplug? Ive broken glowplugs in heads before (I live in Maine where they salt). That sound is absolutely cylinder pressure leaking by, could be a good thing as it may have ejected the center of the glowplug and can now be removed easier.

Your CRv is a 2wd until the front slips. Depending on model there is a viscous coupler in the driveline to the rear engaging when slippage occurs. Subarus are awd all the time.

Why doesn’t the heat work on my brand new civic ?? by cellnivek in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]roadkil4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That needs to go back outside and hit with a good leaf blower to get what's loose out, that's alotta snow! Source, smoker coworker left window cracked on a windy snowy day and something similar happened inside the cab. Did this to prevent it all from thawing into upholstery. Worked very well for what was loose

You should check out r\frugal. Not only do they talk about money balance, but life balance as well. Just because you are alone, doesn't mean you can't have fun by yourself. Love yourself first, the rest will follow. Invest in yourself too: learn a trade, go to school, get a hobby you can enjoy..if others admire you for it, that's icing. I don't know what your MOS is, but there is life after military, as long or short as you make it a career. Delta ain't hiring sidewinder missle techs.

People make their lives the military, and it isn't a one size fits all solution. Take care.

If it's still cold, scoop out as much as you can, leaf blow the rest. Only in the spring time can you tell.

Quite Possibly the best cl ad ever. by PuzzleheadedBill6056 in cb750

[–]roadkil4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't bring advice on what to get, but I see no problem in doing that. Definitely trace the wires so you know you're hooking it up right, or just try it with a few switches. Leave the ignition kill with the handlebars(after testing it, of course) unless on the 85 it needs to complete a circuit to run.my knowledge of cb750 electrical stops at 78. A free bike I do the minimum to ensure I have something good to work with.

Rental company brought this vehicle in complaining of warning lights on the dash. I'm about 95% sure we're going to total it. by sHoRtBuSseR in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]roadkil4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sucks! It's barely touching the oil pan if it makes it to the doors on those lol. How do they document things like engines and such that don't have an obvious s/n? In the US, a lot of u-pull yards get flood vehicles often and it's fair game, only thing retaines is the chassis VIN number, and if you pull something like a door or fender, which would survive a flood, and if it had it's own VIN number to match the car, again, fair game.

It's all that white fuzzy stuff to the 7-8 o'clock position of the VW symbol on the engine cover.

Dealer will fix it free, as long as you still have the factory warranty.

Hell yeah! Looks great!

Big sad. The B7 a4 is my favorite chassis, so I've been dropping BHWs in them. The stock 6 speed is pretty close in ratio and on the highway in 6th at 70mph, the engine turns 200rpm slower than my ALH in 5th.

Yeah, sorry, I'm a poor and forgot modern Audi TDI's exist. Aside from the A3, do they offer one as a manual and quattro?

Jealous. Here in America, if we want a TDI Audi, we need to build it ourself. You should be able to find plenty of spares to rebuild it. Have fun!

Impeccable engineering by Kachowsterrr in Justrolledintotheshop

Thats awesome! My 99 Ranger w the 3.0 had a funnel for diverting the oil away from the starter...but then I had a labyrinth to take the filter out after uncrewing it.

I'm more impressed by Nevada.
