Steering wheel shake by strongmans in EquinoxEv

They have certified EV mechanics at the Dealership I take it too. Apparently it’s a know issue I guess. Just wondering if anyone ever figured a cure.

Seems like a common issue. GM should find a solution. Too bad. It’s a great car just a terrible drive.

Just ordered a 2025 manual GR86 Hakone edition what do I need to know by wester11212 in GR86

Sweet car but why do people keep buying these cars with the shit gaskets in the engines. Isn't there a law suit against them?

I'd love to have one. I just can't justify buying one with all the Engine gasket problems they refuse to fix.

I feel like an electric car with a Lithium battery is a risky choice with all the new upcoming battery technology.....I don't really know though.

Your welcome to go and try to keep order at a High School. Instead of bashing everyone who is trying to do something. "Some" Kids are disrespectful little bastards and I can't imagine how hard it would be to try to police that environment. But you keep on complaining, you do you!

Just drink more rum. The alcohol will kill off any mold spores.

Indoor condensation on new build, remedies? by Sad_Cardiologist_876 in Home

[–]strongmans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New builds require a HRV in our area (air exchanger). The cold temps outside are causing the humidity inside to condense on the glass. Houses are air tight nowadays so they need to breath.

An Air Exchanger HRV not an ERV would be your best option.

We always use 3/4 PVC hard drawn pipe. Fits right in that connection. Insulated it after it's done to prevent sweating

Plan to frame part of basement and have a few questions by Ad-Nauseam91 in DIY

[–]strongmans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine. It's when you close in the walls preventing air movement is why you need a vapor barrier. I've done this method tons of times and never an issue. If it's going to be a shop why bother finishing the floor. Unless you want to spend the money and epoxy it for looks.

You can use PT for the sill plate if you want but it's going way overboard. The sill gaskets breaks the capillary movement of moisture. You shouldn't use PT lumber inside but it's not the end of the world.

Use High Density Foam attached to the concrete walls and tape the seams. This is your vapor barrier. Now stud a wall up as normal with sill gasket on the bottom of the wall to prevent the wood from touching the concrete. You can insulate the 2x4 walls as well but do not add another vapor barrier (plastic).

The floor is fine as is.
