I had previously posted in the mechanical/maintenance forum regarding a head gasket problem on my friends 2012 Toyota Prius. Ultimately He ordered a reman engine from Hybridpit located in California. The engine arrived on Monday this past week and we finished installing it today. We got...

I am assisting a friend of mine in doing a head gasket job on his 2012 Toyota Prius with 184,000 miles. He purchased the car from a local Honda dealer back in November 2023 and has accumulated some miles on the car without issue until about a week and a half to two weeks ago. The symptom was...

Vehicle specs: 2008 Chevy Silverado Z71 crew cab short box with heavy towing package. I’ve ordered rack and pinion boots/bellows from three different places: Amazon (PartsW —> horrible customer service, stay away from this 3rd party seller!), Rockauto, and now Autozone. None of them have...

Looking for a "quiet" high flowing muffler specifically for towing application. I read through this post from 2013, but there are more options to pick from now and that's mainly why I am creating a new thread. Need recommendations on a quiet 3"in/3"out muffler | Bob Is The Oil Guy I recently...

This came off of a vehicle that I serviced regularly but I did not have time the last time they needed an oil change so they took it to Walmart and apparently this is what was put on it. 2010 Ford escape approximately 5000 miles. The wide pleat as seen in the picture was separating slightly...

Looking for some help on a friends ~2012 eXmark X-series with a Kohler ECV749 EFI engine and the 60" deck. Running on one cylinder at idle and then really rough at full throttle with RPM's surging with no load and smells like it's running VERY rich. Put in new air filter as the one that was in...

This filter was removed from my DD 2020 Ford Fusion SE with the 1.5T engine at 6,100 miles. This was purchased as a “New” dealer service vehicle so it had 2,700 miles on it when I got it in December of 2020. The dealer did the first OC at that mileage before they put it on the lot. I am changing...

To me, some of the wear metals look higher than they should be for this mileage (comparing to a UOA I had done on my 2008 Sienna in January of '19 using Mobil 1 5W-30 for 6,000 miles but that vehicle is 90% highway miles commuting to and from work). Both the 2008 and the 2016 Sienna's employ...

Picked up a couple oil filters at Menards to do some oil changes on friends vehicles. Since when did Fram rate their Extra Guard line of oil filters for 10,000 miles? Until very recently I was under the impression that their Extra Guard filters were rated for 5,000 miles.

Vehicle details: 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe FWD with the 3.3 liter V6. (Wife's daily driver, and family vehicle for road trips) Religious oil/filter changes every 5,000 miles. I am now 100% convinced that Hyundai has neglected to include the 3.3 V6 engines in their engine recall program that also...

Daily driven short trips less than 6 miles each direction as kid hauler. Road trip at least 2X a year 1,000-2,000 miles round trip. It does have some Piston Slap when cold for as long as I can remember and definitely hasn't worsened in the last 3+ years that we've owned it. Wear number are...
