Thanks for the advice so far. I went to re-tighten one of the brake lines on the MC. Backed it out and carefully tried to get it back on since I felt like there was a 2-3 more threads to get good connection. Ended up cross threading the damn thing and shredded the brake line connector male...
Did a MC replacement I got through Andy Le which itself went OK. I go to bleed the brakes per his instructions (pumping, beeps, etc) and have run into issues.
I am not doing this with TechStream and decided to go old school buddy system. I was able to bleed the far rear PS without issue...
Thanks to everyone’s tips.
It ended up being the brake pads with the DS worse than the PS. They weren’t totally worn but maybe had a 1/4 inch left.
However, the pairs weren’t worn evenly which led me to have the mechanic check the wheel bearings and sure enough there was a good amount of...
Hey guys, very annoying “sissing” noise coming out of my front driver side wheel. Happens at all speeds but seems to lessen when applying brakes.
Tried to hit the gas while applying brakes to see if it was the motion speed or the actual application of the brakes and couldn’t tell.
I just...
Hi thanks for your insight. Yes, I did everything you had mentioned other than filling with nitrogen. I believe I’ve use some sort of alcohol-based flushing agent. And then I vacuumed down the system for awhile and it held pressure for a good length of time. Added the FSM amount of PAG to...
I hear you. I have 134a cans that you have to pierce. I think they stopped selling those but I still have a few left over.
As for the hose gauge I have one from inter dynamics that ls probably 6 years old now.
I have modern adapter for the newer can tops so I’ll try that.
If that’s...
I last summer I completely overhauled my AC system. New compressor, new condenser, new expansion, TXV valve new evaporator, flushed the lines.
AC was working great after all that.
Fast forward. The AC system is not working like last season.
When starting up the AC system it did not blow...
Hi, when I press down with my screwdriver the lever/lock will move it down without much fuss (I doused it with penetrant over the last few weeks). But it will bounce right back up when I release the screwdriver--- I think this is what you mean by it not holding the position. Closing the...
Has anyone ever had to remove their hood latch? Seems like a real PITA to have to remove alot of things just to get to the latch. Just want to make sure this is necessary.
Can someone verify if the top brace has to be removed in order to gain access to the latch? It looks like the latch...
Thanks for your suggestion but as you can see I verified that it is not closed. Just bounces between open and closed position. Doesn’t stay closed. Picture with the screwdriver shows where the hood pin hits the latch to close.
Any other ideas would be great. Surprised no one else has had...
My hood latch that won’t stay closed. Just bounces the hood pin between open and closed.
I have pulled on the hood latch release several times and it seems like there is a return action on the cable but it’s hard to tell whether or not it’s a broken latch cable. I think not because I don’t...
Thanks. Something to definitely think about. Since I'm not even sure that the funnel wasn't chipped from before, I think I'm going to do something in between first. With the boroscope I thought for sure I could see the broken piece caught in the fill tube, but nothing. So, I'm...
