    Plumbing help/washer drain

    Hi folks, What would be the easiest and least expensive way to connect these two drain hoses from a washing machine to the existing drain pipe. I don’t have the tools to cut what is there if it were needed but can easily enough glue on pieces. Would a rubber step down work? Could you please...

    Totaled Santa!

    Lucky to be here folks. Thank you to Hyundai for saving my life. If I had not been in a brand new vehicle, Santa Cruz, I do not believe I would've survived this accident. I went over a hill too fast, lost control, went off side of the road and started mowing down trees. I rolled multiple times...

    MKZ or Elantra?

    Hello, Totaled my Santa Cruz. Having a really hard time finding something I like. After hours of searching I have narrowed to two: 2017 MKZ AWD 3.0TT Reserve, 95k miles. 2023 Elantra Limited, 0 miles. Cost will be effectively the same if I lease the Elantra. Do I take the heart thumper 3.0TT...

    2022 Santa Cruz

    Hello all, Picked this up last week. Cool little truck. Will meet my needs. I opted for the AWD 2.5T and 8 speed DCT over the 2.5 naturally aspirate 8 speed auto. The AWD 2.5T and DCT make a good pair and it's actually pretty zippy and fun to drive. Gas mileage on the highway is around 24mpg...

    '22 Genesis G70

    I have a 2022 Genesis G70 2.0T RWD that I am going to be tuning in the coming weeks. I am wondering if I should step up an oil grade? I was planning on using Amsoil. Solely because of the added turbocharger protection. They claim on their site "Protects turbochargers 72% better than required2 by...

    Another dealer story $$

    Good evening ladies & gents, Going to make this sweet and to the point. Wife and I recently purchased 2 new vehicles from the same dealer within 1 week. Her car had interior trim damage and mine had a door so misaligned it had to be sent to a body shop for repair. They also attempted to cheat...

    Good or bad lease?

    Would anyone be so kind to review this lease and tell me if it was any good? Someone with knowledge would be more readily able to spot something off. This lease was after a prior lease was ended about a year early after the dealer reached out. Thanks

    ‘09 MB C300 Used

    Howdy. Got a friend looking at this car. Wanted my opinion but I honestly know nothing about MB. All I do know is that they tend be fickle and require lots of maintenance. I told him based on my limited knowledge it would be a hard pass but I wanted to ask around for him. What say you? 2009 MB...

    Genesis G70 2.0 Oil

    Anyone see a reason why 0w40 wouldn't be listed here? Never ran a 40 weight oil before. Lots of choices, euro formulas, lots of oils for diesel trucks. I'd like to run Mobil 1 Euro 0w40. With a Fram Ultra most likely.

    Detail Steps?

    Hey all, There are so many products out there these days and to be honest, I'm not that well versed in truly detailing cars. I need your input. I just recently purchased the Genesis in my sig and want to keep it looking good. I'm just not sure which products and in which steps. I am good with...

    Rate my alignment

    The Genesis in my sig. Pulls to the left pretty good. I had the dealership align it yesterday but it’s still not right. Anyone know how to really read these things? If I hold my wheel perfectly straight, car dives left. Overall, it’s kinda hard to keep straight. Constant minor adjustments at...

    I wince every time....

    Around my place of work there are numerous speed bumps. It pains me each and every day when I'm walking by the speed bumps and people drive over them @ 20-30 miles an hour. I mean they just roll right over them things and I can hear the shocks shriek. I don't understand how people think that is...

    New Apartment Mold

    Mornin' BITOG. Just moved into a new apartment this past weekend. I popped the front cover off the air handler and found it inundated with mold. The evap coil is filthy so it had me wondering what the cabinet/blower looked like. Everything covered in mold. Now I know Florida is humid but this...

    Diagnose My Brakes

    This picture was taken today of the drivers side rear. The rotor surface is a bunch of ridges with rust present, it's obvious the pad is not making full contact. This car doesn't even have 10,000 miles on it yet. What the heck is going on? Part of me wants to take it in to the dealer and let...

    New 2020 Sonata

    Looks pretty good to me! I owned a 2017 and liked it save for the depressing 2.4L. Liking that interior a lot. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a26692381/2020-hyundai-sonata-photos-info/

    Honda A1 MM

    Hi folks, Sooo this is weird. The Accord in my sig is telling me to change the oil (Maintence Minder Code: A1) but right above it says that the oil life is 60%..... Current mileage is 5,100. Over 4,000 of those are to Ohio and back. What gives?

    Sudden Shake - ‘18 Accord

    Hi guys and gals, On my new 2018 Accord Limited, 4,200 miles, I suddenly have a horrible shake from the right front wheel. I just jacked it up and pulled the wheel off, no damage to the tire or rim. Doesn't look like I'm missing any weights. I am in Ohio visiting family and this just happened...
