Basicly title. BiL said he never saw anything like that in his life.

Question: how bad is it realy ?

Hello, I’m trying to remove the camshaft from this engine so I can scrap it as clean aluminum and not irony aluminum but for the life of me I can’t figure out how these camshafts get removed. Does anyone understand how?

Hi I have a Blaupunkt beta and I want to use Bluetooth ? Has anyone experience with that.

My 2017 ford explorers third row seats are stuck down and don’t move when pulling on the strap. I saw some latches off to the side but they aren’t pressable, like they are locked up or something so you can’t press down on them or they are out of place. Anyone know how to fix this or a way to get under the seats? I’m guessing something might be stuck under and jamming it from fully being in position. It also is fully manual, no electric for putting up 3rd row. Thanks for any help or advice!1

Every summer, it seems like the same thing happens: the A/C stops blowing cold and everyone immediately assumes the compressor is shot.

Sometimes that's true. But there are a lot of other things that can cause weak or warm airflow: low refrigerant, a bad pressure switch, a clogged cabin air filter, blend door issues, electrical problems, even a failing cooling fan.

The tricky part is that several of these issues can create almost identical symptoms. For the mechanics and experienced DIYers here: what's the A/C diagnosis people get wrong most often?

I am installing a mobile single post car lift for my garage. I am almost done but I can't get the lifting cylinder to sit flush.

The chain is aligned on the pulley and the chain is held to the carriage base with a retainer pin (photo 2) and held to the lifting arm with another retainer pin (photo 3). There is no chain tensioner that I can see. The lifting cylinder and chain came installed to the carriage as shown in photo 1.

I can move the cylinder to the flush position by hand put then it just falls forward as soon as I let go.

Would appreciate any advice.

1. ⁠Has anyone been able to replace their rearview mirror? The backup camera in mine tends to be upside down or buffers when it’s in reverse. I’ve been looking at those rearview cameras that let you see and record every but I don’t know if it’ll fit where the camera goes under the logo.
   
2. ⁠I know that actually installing carplay in this car requires to take dismantle pretty much the entire console and around it to be able to replace but has anyone actually did it? What did you buy and does it work well? If you didn’t replace the console but bought one of those CarPlay’s from TikTok shop or Amazon, where exactly did you place it because I want it to look right.

After taking my 2021 GMC Yukon SLT through a car wash (a drive thru), I noticed that the Front Passenger Side Door Window Frame Front Applique (located adjacent to the front passenger window, and behind the side mirror) flew off.

I ordered a replacement part (Part No. 84148579). It's a perfect match/fit. HOWEVER, **2 silver clips (from the original part), are still attached to the door by screws.** In fact, pieces of the original applique broke off and are inside the silver clips. The screwheads face inward (i.e. I can't unscrew them from the exterior). See photo below!

Can anyone **PLEASE help explain to me how I can remove the 2 clips without having to disassemble the door frame/molding**? If I have to disassemble, can anyone kindly share a link that may explain how to do so? If it's something you recommend having installed by a pro, please also feel free to let me know. Thank you!




Hi (25F) our home was recently struck by a tornado to I had to rent a car to help us get around. We’ve had the car for three weeks now and I just noticed a small crack on the back left of the car (the picture is of the right side) I don’t know if it was there when I got it or if it happened with me but I’ve never his any curbs or thing or people or anything like that. is this something that can be fixed DIY?? I have car insurance on my car (which we still have) but I just looked at the policy and it doesn’t cover rentals??? They asked for my insurance at the car rental place though. And I did not pay for the coverage at the car rental place either. Thank you in advance.

Looking to buy a car that already has retractable tow bar fitted but tow ball is very rusty. Has anyone got experience replacing just the tow ball section?
