Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

went up to my brothers today and waxed the regal with the PC.



we also did a trans service on his Yukon, pan drop and filter, then we followed a write up on trans flushing for his truck, and it worked great. we took the top trans line off the radiator, screwed in a barbed fitting, then a clear tube. dumped 4 quarts in the trans, run it till you see small bubbles in the line, shut it off, add 4 more quarts, flush, and then one more time. it was easy, and no real mess to complain about either.

i see no reason why this would not work on our cars.

I just add 10 quarts and pull a trans line and have my wife shut the car off when i yell at her to shut it off when the fluid quits coming out. I did the same thing on my old sho and it did wonders for the old slipping trans.

I didn't think of that until you mentioned it. That is true.

took the water pump pully off to see if it was leaking - nope

took the engine mounts out, strut bars out, wiper arms out, and cowl cover.

And there was a cabin filter in there just dirty

WHY OH WHY???? you NEED double din.. its like a 04+ requirement! lol

Double DIN selection is limited, why should someone concede on a headunit just because its double DIN? That Alpine is just as good, if not better than 90% of double DIN's out there.

Yes, and it's not entirely fresh paint either. I know you're supposed to wait 30days or so, like I did painting the bumpers on my eclipse. The fairings and tank have been painted for well over a week, and were only waxed right after wet sanding.

took more pics.

A week still isn't nearly enough time. 30 days is the absolute minimum time, most people recommend 6 months before you wax. Paint has to outgas, once you wax it you have stopped it from being able to do so.

Got a price quote to repair front bumper amd do paint touch up all over car.

$250.00 decent price?

Mind the front bumper is badly cracked by the right fog light corner and is causing spidering in the paint.

Almost on the verge of suspiciously low.
