Shopping for an ABS sensor for my 19 Prius, RF. Snapped the head off doing a wheel bearing. Anyhow I try to shop around and will pay a little more to get something sooner in this sort of situation. O'Reilly's wanted $474, available tomorrow, while eBay sold it to me for $16, taking a week to...

What a dramatic way to sell engine parts!

OK, we all know what these are for, reducing drag by helping the pads stand off from the rotors. They don't do much but they must do something. I am NOT talking about abutment clips, to be clear, but those 0.040" or so wire springs that fit in the little holes by the pad ears and form a V...

... for damage, of course. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a65176049/hertz-ai-scan-rental-car-damage/ IDK, at least it would verify you actually returned your car, something their human clerks can't 100% process correctly. And if Enterprise did it, they'd wait for someone who didn't get the...

Am a little overwhelmed by selection. Seems all three should be the same, just the catalog description is bonkers: Rwd, E4OD, extended cab, 351W. Getting a rumble at 35-45 under the seat, want to do all of them. Have the non-c-clip clips, the ones that curve back around to give the pliers...

So we probably all know about Rockauto's not advertising brand names for closeouts, so the seller doesn't undercut themselves: But if one clicks on the "more info" button/ photo, they might get a clue-- in this example, in the file name: Furthermore, Google reports the GNAD prefix to belong...

I got two pairs for both Prii since my wife and I spend lots of time at airport parking, Park n ride lots, etc. McGard style. (They have five florettes, mine have six.) But if you look closely the florettes are all uniform. Even better, both boxes are keyed alike! 😁 IDK if BG0469 is the...

Found myself needing a little stub of a molded heater hose, ASAP. Advance carries it for $9 and there's a coupon for buying online. But they don't have it in my store, so I'd have to go there in person to order it, go back a day or two later to pick it up, and maybe even pay shipping to the...

Oh, what a pickle! Stripped the threads in the downpipe of my 180k 95 Miata 1.8 M/T removing the old o2 sensor. Had a code 17 which to me fairly convincingly indicts the actual sensor. Looking for options. I have: A HF flux wire welder and a Lincoln Tombstone that goes down to 40 amps and...

Used their credit card for a recent walmart.com purchase that didn't go well. I had an opportunity to "upload evidence" so I made a nice PDF of my point of view-- that I got one-third of the product promised. It also included screen grabs of walmart's chat expert who promised a refund, who was...

In the last couple of months there's been an automatic spell check for what I type. I hope its dictionary allows local control. For example Carquest has been auto corrected to car quest. Spellcheck is also considered to be two words. It "figures it out" when I backspace and retype what I...

Wife wants a "bigger" fridge but I'd like to find the specs of what we have now, in cubic feet. Coming up empty. Here's the sticker, any clues? External size 31" deep (including doors), 33 across, 66 5/8 tall including hinges.

Not a troll post, I swear. 😁 Had a dew point of six degrees F while the ambient air was still above freezing. Perfect time. Put a jack under the affected corners so I wouldn't pinch any sidewalls, pulled valve stems, let all the humid summer air out. Could audibly hear water "spitting" at...

flightradar24.com has some interesting patterns as planes divert due to recent events:

Got a neato heater off FBM, 240V/ 20 amps (actually 3750 watts to keep it at 80% of a 20 amp breaker under continuous use.) Found the same thing on amazon by searching for "240v heater." The reviews are... special. I guess there's hope for the world that some people still get it. Wonder what...

AW32 for my unbranded wood splitter. Just need to top it off. Unknown slightly yellow fluid in there now. Small reservoir. I *could* get a gallon for $18 at Home Depot and flush the thing while I'm in there, with enough left over for the rest of my days. I can only find quarts of...

Actually not that proud a moment, he already has access to a car but didn't like being "car grounded." So he parked it a block away and didn't tell us. Well, karma got to him and two weeks and 100 miles after purchase the timing belt idlers went out! 😳 Definitely have mixed feelings, part of...

And what you think happens, happened. This bridge is probably 5 miles from me and I've driven across it. Linkaroo

Seems like a legitimate product, but I still had to post it here. link

Allrivght Bobbers, going to Philly this weekend. Crossing the ME-NH border at 0930 Friday, returning Sunday. The eastbound tolls along the NJ turnpike and GW bridge are... aggressive. I don't mind paying a few tolls, but I don't want to pay a bunch. Have EZPass. Strongly considering the...
