    Battery handheld air compressor

    I have the both the M12 and M18 version of the waukees. Although great products, they are bulky. These pistol types seem to be good for trunk storage, and cheap enough not to get stolen or if forgotten at the side of the road. Many versions. I think Porsche included something like this with...

    What oil are vq37 owners using?

    Nissan uses a coating called DLC which is supposed to bond to the ester oils and create a barrier thus lowering friction/wear. https://www.nissan-global.com/EN/INNOVATION/TECHNOLOGY/ARCHIVE/DLC/...

    What oil are vq37 owners using?

    Depends how much you love your VQ37VHR.;) Redline 5w30 is very popular in Z community. I use it in my 2017 370Z. I dont track or drift. I do get spirited and since it's only summer use, I do see 230F oil temps once in a while. ( no external oil cooler yet). I'm currently using Mobil 1-108A...

    Murano front end growl

    I just verified the Transmission side is worn and looks like it's sagging. This is another easy one to change, so it has been ordered. Not too expensive but not much to it. OEM.

    Help choosing Spark plug socket

    Works as described. The only downside is, that maybe it doesn't hold right away. If there isn't enough torque on the spark plug, it may not "retain" by tension. I had to really try and make it do this, so still worked. Of course there is the psychological effect of knowing there is nothing...

    2016 Hyundai Accent manual transmission

    I have the Motive power filler, even better. The issue was not how to get it in, but the restriction at the filler. You can use whatever you want to pump it in, you just need a long, thin hose or pipe...

    2016 Hyundai Accent manual transmission

    Figured it out. This model year Accent has both a fill and drain, easily accessible on hoist or even on jack stands. Both plugs are 17 mm hex head and have thin aluminum washer gasket. (probably same part number even though Hyundai does not list the fill plug P/N) The fill port seems to be...

    2016 Hyundai Accent manual transmission

    Hi Folks. Having a hard time determining where the fill plug is for this year and model. I see some videos showing a standard drain and fill and others showing only drain but filling through reverse light switch port on top. Parts stores indicate only drain plug gasket. Hyundai parts also...
