Stealers are just like politicians. They're more than happy to trample over our protections that prevent us from getting screwed and exploited. A Dodge Stealer was more than happy to avoid some charger owners warranty simply because he used a non OEM air filter brand a while ago.

A face only a mother could not love.

The new electric gt Mercedes looks like a dog

It's basic ac diag 101 to make sure it's charged before condemning anything so they were 100% scamming. They aren't motivated to save you money they want to sell parts and labor like an hvac scammer that wants to sell a whole system over a brazed joint leak saying it's the coil going out instead...

I know GM uses all 3 on their v8's like my L87 even if redundant to increase efficiency a bit. I'm guessing ford only does map and iat. I think the early ecoboosts had a maf too but they ditched it by the next revision to save a bit on costs. But those do have the same symptoms as dirty or...

Vacuum pumps are cheap now and it will cost less to buy a basic one that only needs to work once then recharge the system yourself. Best to leave it in the shade and have a fan blowing on it if it's hot outside. Mobile guys charge too much and after reading master ac tech advice some leave...

I had this happen to my sierra also with the ac on at idle but to a smaller degree after new plugs, wires, air filter, and fuel filter but not immediately only after a few hundred miles but I read somewhere that disconnecting the battery lets the computer software reset and it worked for me. I...

I had a friend with an old truck drive around for a long time without a working AC not knowing why and thought it'd be expensive so he left it like that but I checked it out and it was just a stupid low-pressure switch that died. I jumped it with a wire after checking the low side and seeing...

Oh. For some reason I was thinking cabin air filter

Most people have their vehicles on recirc for forever some without realizing so the filter will take forever to clog even in the few times the computer auto disables recirc to put some fresh air in but if you're on clean roads it's possible for that air filter to last 300k and you tack on miles.

I could never be without ac even if money was getting tight unless I was in cool enough climate to where having the windows down is enough to keep me from sweating especially the back of my shirt. Worst case scenario if it's the evaporator and it's very hard to replace and leaks too quickly for...

Those are good. I'd avoid the crap dual clutch hybrids like the Hyundai kia ones unless I was only going to lease and not buy out or own it short term within the warranty.

I'd be surprised a comp failed after just 9 years but it's usually that stupid variable nonsense that breaks but that can usually be replaced on its own. The factory comp and clutch on my 345k yukon and 294k sierra are still good and don't make noise. I love these old nice simple systems. I bet...

I'd buy one. A shame they cut the hybrid battery capacity because having the AC run for so long with the engine off is nice. I rented a rav 4 hybrid on vacation in Hawaii and it was so nice to have in the summer. Don't remember the engine ever starting again when stationary and it kept cooling...

Thankfully that reprehensible demented scum is gone. Wish he'd've never tried to kill Chrysler in the first place. I rag on them but with the right management to work on fixing problems and focus on their edge in the car market they'd be great again and I'd probably buy one of their trucks with...

You say it identifies as 1234yf. I'm guessing the recovery machine won't go haywire if it goes in but I imagine future models will detect 444 and dealers doing warranty work like replacing an engine will not evacuate it and maybe deny your warranty. I'd use it on my escalade but gm extended the...

I've been curious since hearing about it being a drop in replacement for yf that's much cheaper, I'm surprised it cools notably better. Even if it was a tad less performant than yf if it's compatible with the pressures and oil so the compressor lasts the same and is way cheaper I'd use it. If it...

They seem to drop like flies even when religiously maintained after 100k.

Love these.

You and better yet your wife should make an effort to get them to save and if they ignore you or even better tell you to not get in their business cut them off if they try to ask for money after they're left with nothing and bring up their statement about not wanting you involved in their...
