    GR Corolla on track with 0W-20 blows engine and crashes

    Hyundai warranties their N cars on non sanctioned track days IF it is stock, the crash would be on him I bet. This was far from stock, so no warrantry from Toyota. He should of had X-40 to X-50 I would guess, All matters on the oil cooler size and efficiency. What the heck was he thinking...

    Home for someone who is a trust fund baby or a tech gillionare

    There is no "there" "there" for $55,000,000. It was assessed at 2.3 mill in 2024 and I assume it was not fully done. But the county/state says "addition" 1.6 mill. There is NOTHING there to justify $55 mill. It is JUST a commercial bowed roof with common commercial glass. I assume no basement ...

    Toyota Care --- NO CLUE!!!!

    Yeah, and if it's a Hyundai dealer and you have a high performance "N Series turbo " car there is a very very high chance you will get 5w-20 Bulk Oil, just not worth it.

    New tire needed for 5-10K miles--how important is it to match?

    I think they put new tires on the back by default now,( liability ) so in snow and heavy rain the rear doesn't come around. I had to push pretty hard to get them to put both new front Cross Climate 2's on the front when my daughter got a steel bar through the sidewall and I got that on road...

    Best HPL for Oil Burning Toyota 22RE

    I would say do the B12 soak AND put VR&P in, not his own oil. Your stopping the "process of cleaning" if you put in his old non known cleaning oil. We don't know if VRP will slowly soften the carbon on the rings and still work a small % by soaking/softening. $29 and Valvoline's top tier oils...

    Ladder safety month is coming up, just a reminder. OUCH

    12 fter not a issue at all, Yep the 16fter my adrenaline is up and I would rather not, but had to. I never have to use them anymore but a rare case as we have had a scissors lift now for 15 years. I don't know at 63 and being away from ladders for so long if I could handle the 16ft in my head...

    Ladder safety month is coming up, just a reminder. OUCH

    Yea, I don't mind those 4 legged ladders, pretty stable if they a fiberglass. We have 12 ft and 16 fters. Not much need for those anymore with a scissor lift.

    Ladder safety month is coming up, just a reminder. OUCH

    When I was 12, I was getting some stuff from the garage attic with a small aluminum sliding ladder with the ladder rung spring loaded wedge stops. I was young and dumb and did not get them placed right as I was never shown how they worked. So I got all the way up and as soon as I hit the...

    Wago implementation

    I bet that happened because they are meant for alternating current, AC not DC. 20 amp Wagos CAN start to get soft at 60 amp AC if in a pull box. Wago makes a 30 amp larger version. I don't know if there is enough cool down the Wago gets wit the alternating current and wave form ramp up and...

    AGAIN...what's the 'best' engine oil for me?

    Honda only gives it's owners of the Honda Civic R an aux pump, none for the Si, and every other turbo they produce, get the aux pump. Must be an Asian thing.

    AGAIN...what's the 'best' engine oil for me?

    My 2018 turbo doesn't have an aux pump, I don't think a single Hyundai/Kia turbo does. It only has the water cooling jacket in the turbo to boil on shut down. If I have been on repeated high boost before I shut down, which is often. I make sure I have a 1.5 to 2 minute cool down time of at...

    AGAIN...what's the 'best' engine oil for me?

    Looking at your picture, you obviously have been trying daily to find the best alcoholic beverage. You better keep trying, because the best oil answer is in your grasp, too. :LOL:

    Most reliable used simple/basic vehicle

    Of your list, Honda Fit and Honda Civic are your best bets, by far. Add Toyota Corolla to that list.

    Mazda 3 Mahle [ 2.75 in tall, chinese] filter cut open with Pics. Switch to a Hyundai filter?

    I run Hyundai spec filters on my daughters 2013 2.0 Skyactiv. It should get the 6607, but I use my larger Hyundai speced 9688 readily available on my shelf now for 4 years on the Mazda 3, on the old Fram Ultras, Titaniums, and a couple of Endurance before First Brands/Fram single handedly...
