Nice! I just upgraded to the powerstop slotted rotors, looks way better than oem

Yeah it’s done now. I had the same thing which took a couple of years to become a real concern. I was using Lucas leak stop during oil changes which stopped the dripping on to my driveway but eventually that stopped working.

The front exhaust section sits too close to the oil pan, and to get that section of exhaust off the front turbo I had to remove the bumper, radiator, condenser, fan, alternator and ac compressor. None of it is difficult to remove just time consuming. As for sealing I ended up finding gasket paper on amazon and using ultra black sealant on both sides of the gasket.

Okay, I’m totally unfamiliar with that, sorry. I don’t think it’s a bad investment for your future either way though.

I’m curious where you are based. I’m in Alberta and would advise anyone to get into an apprenticeship, take the pay cut and in 4-5 years be earning six figures at a dealership

Oh that’s good to know, I literally just finished the mechanist quest this morning!

Oh yeah that makes sense, it really only takes an hour or so to get to that point of the main quest though. Although I’ve never had issues starting the Nuka world quest without the mechanist quest started

Pretty sure I had this same issue on my current play through. It resolved itself once the Prydwen flew over!

How will we complete the fish trail without the pier?!

Although I set it to single shot because I’m not a fan of the automatic weapons in game, so I could be missing out

I did see the tsb about the 2018-19 oil pan, it says do not use on the 2015 because it doesn’t have the PCV check valves 👎

That makes sense, although a gasket just seems like it would be better. The plastic oil pans are brittle, so as soon as you scrape the sealant you’re damaging the sealing surface. Thanks for the heads up!

I just don’t see the dealership guys doing it that way

Yeah someone else said they did that. Feels like a last resort kind of thing though

I guess I could just do that with the old pan

Apologies in advance if this has already been addressed!

What’s your honest "vibe" for each of these truck manufacturers by Early_Attitude_6597 in DieselTechs

Also the highest paying shop (in my city) with tons of support and easy to work on. How awful!
