    Mercedes driveline rumble

    Drop the drive shaft and check how the u joints move. They should turn freely without binding. If you turn them from side to side and they bind up at all they need replaced.

    Morals and working with the public

    Business is in business to make money. If you gave them the part for what you paid for it you wouldn't be in business very long. Obviously people can shop around and get better deals but some people have no interest in going someplace different and some have no interest in tracking something...

    Coyote Encounter

    Have an idea for transmission pans

    Would be nice to just have a spin on filter with the coarse style media they use for the regular trans filters that could be accessed without dropping the pan. Even if it wasn't a spin on and used a cartridge style that was external that would be nice.

    Spray lubricants getting too expensive. What are some alternatives?

    I try to avoid buying stuff like this from the auto parts stores when possible. Its always marked up higher than any place else. Rural king has been my go to when stocking up on stuff like this. I know not everyone has a rural king in their area but even places like walmart have better prices on...

    Top oil producing States

    Outdoor AC condenser - tilted

    HVAC Experts? Question

    T6s are junk. I replaced 2 brand new ones last year because they were acting stupid. Get an Ecobee 3 lite or Pro1 T855 and throw that T6 in the trash.
