You're well on the way to earning your McGyver badge! The next problem must be repaired with only duct tape and a paperclip. ;)

This is the $13 gauge on Amazon that I recommend. The knurled textured QD coupler is sturdier than the other charging hoses with the smooth rimmed coupler.

If you choose to vacuum out any flammable solvent, don't use an electric Shop Vac! Instead, use a Mityvac style extractor to preclude a fire or explosion from the fumes.

Your 2016 Highlander should call for a Group 24F battery. If you are a Sam's Club member, you are in luck. This Fri-Sunday, (July 25-27) they have $20 off all Duracell automotive batteries as part of their July Doorbuster Sale. The flooded lead acid battery will be $119.88 and the AGM will...

Try this procedure: To enter diagnostic mode on a GE GCVH6400J1WW washer and check for error codes, follow these steps: Ensure the washer has been recently plugged in: If it hasn't, unplug it for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and wait 15-30 seconds for the system to boot up. Press and hold...

You might have a faulty GFCI or maybe spider webs across the contacts/terminals in the GFCI. I'd check the GFCI first before chasing the wiring.

I think the deal-maker/deal-breaker is the A/C window unit. I can run all of the other items on your list along with a Wi-Fi router and ROKU box with a 2200 watt Honda EU 2200i inverter generator all day long. I tried connecting a 10,000 BTU Honeywell portable A/C unit to the Honda generator...

The Akebono ProAct ceramic pads will be closest to Honda OEM performance. Do a search on recent BITOG threads on EBC pads...it appears several members have had poor fitment issues with EBC pads lately.

The silver bottle with the blue cap is the old packaging that states Honda Genuine PSF while the black bottle is the new packaging which says Honda and Acura PSF. Honda and Acura consolidated the PSF containers instead of carrying different labels for each brand. The fluid is the same (see...

That's pretty much aligned with what I said in Post #12: "Honda's CVT has not been problematic...". My FIL has owned a 2015 CR-V Touring model with the venerable K24 since new and I have done all of the maintenance on the vehicle since Day 1, so throwing out pejoratives here is a bit...

Unfortunately, 2015 was the first year that Honda put a CVT in the CR-V. However, Honda's CVT has not been problematic like Nissan's. If the OP wants to avoid all CVTs, the CR-V is off the list.

That Prestone SDS is dated 1/13/20. The one I posted for the Old World Industries (AKA: PEAK) was dated 5/19/23. I suspect that WalMart SuperTech changed AF supplier contracts between those dates since the bottle style changed in that timeframe (see below). Old ST Asian Blue...

Simpler is more reliable in my book. Anyone with a modicum of common sense really can't go wrong with an old fashion, tried and true, physical dipstick. Adding features like an electronic digital oil level monitoring system is just inflating the cost of new vehicles and increasing complexity...
