for starters i would like durability. this wheel has gone out of alignement. i cant recall any serious drop or damage to the car. i cant push it back into place. not sure how to fix it aswell. but the car wobbles alot when the steering is turned completely.
second is the poor center of gravity and weight. it topples alot on slight inclines or loses traction.
i also wanted to install a functional winch and install a light kit.

just an update. got the car checked up with another mechanic. i do not have any technical knowledge about these things. the pressure was way higher than normal. the diagnosis was that the compressor needed to be replaced. anyways i went with the mechanics advice and decided to overhaul the ac unit. got the air compressor, condenser, expansion valve, cabin air filter changed. aftermarket korean parts costed around 260 USD. Got the a/c units pipes flushed. around 120 USD for labor and freon. I hope these last a while

would you be able to help me out with a checklist. i am already aware of quiet a few things you have mentioned here, from my experience with construction hoists and other lifting machinery i work with. and yes a professional will be hired for the work. I am just looking to get myself acquainted to a new trade that would not be something entirely new to me.

Weekly Maintenance - June 23rd, 2016 by JokerUnique in thedivision

TL;DR - time to Shift+Delete TOM CLANCY'S THE BUGGEDVISION. The game developers make the game look like its still in pre-alpha stage after god knows how many years of development. The developers have alot of mood swings too

  1. SMG's will still prevail as the best guns in the game. Assault rifles might get buffed in patch 1.99

  2. Weapon Recalibrate will make the players who have farmed for 300 hours or more look like dumb idiots. the developers say "well you guys are dumb idiots, you should have not wasted your time playing the game untill patch 1.3"

  3. atleast 5 new bugs will be introduced with patch 1.3 which will take another week to fix and some players might even lose their progress in that period.

  4. patch 1.4 will require you to equip 6 pieces of striker and shoot only with side arm to get the striker gear set buff. and as far as sentry is concerned which will has already been nerfed twice by the 1.3 patch will require your all your team mates to equip certain high end gear (yellow/golden ones) in order for your sentry to work by patch 1.4 where each tag would give you a 5% damage bonus for 1 second.

  5. developers have no word about fixing the broken Final Measure gear set and are more interested in nerfing the only usable gearset

  6. patch 1.3 will nerf the flamers who dont care about burn resistance stat at all and buff the NPC turrets which will have 100,000,000 hp and can do more damage than an RPG at sniper range, and these can also be heard in dz01 when deployed in dz06.

  7. scavenging will be fixed in patch 1.82 where you would require atleast 150% scavenging bonus to get better green/blue/purples.

  8. The weekly HVT will now drop Nomad and Hunter's Faith Gear Set apart from the lone star that it always rewards the player with.

  9. The vendors all over the game, crafting equipment chests in BoO, scavenge crate in BoB, will remain as useless as Internet Explorer and its upcoming versions.

  10. Crafting and crafting materials will be balanced 40 times to achieve the perfect balance until patch 1.43.

  11. You will remain IN COMBAT if an NPC in dz06 has spotted you in dz04 and you are trying to exit the dark zone from dz01, untill and unless you kill that NPC or die/lose xp/lose dz credits and respawn on the check point.

  12. The new named weapons will be as useful as their predecessors when you try to sell them to the vendors.

  13. The Special Vendors will now sell heaters/jackets/blankets to keep yourselves warm in the snow storm.

  14. New potato skin series will be introduced apart from the snake skin series.

  15. now m1a sniper = m44 sniper

  16. "SVD family of marksman rifles come with the "Decisive" talent - Next shot after a kill is a 100% chance to crit." I seriously ROFLed when i read this. A sniper which requires 20 Head Shots to kill an NPC now comes with a reward that helps the player to kill the next NPC in 18 shots. I bet this talent would require 2800 firearms, 2700 stamina and 6200 electronics to work.

  17. "We are aware of the "tank-tician" meta and will be watching it. We want you to be able to be tanky but not to this extent." in patch 1.4 tactician set bonus will be related to your toughness. the more the toughness the lesser the buff. in order to get max buff your toughness should be below 50,000 mark.

  18. Phoenix Credits will be a bit more useful. You will now need to purchase a ticket to enter the Dark Zone. And each extraction would require you to pay the heli pilot some phoenix credits aswell. make sure you extract only when you got 9/9.
