• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Dear brake gods

    So, there were some discoveries last weekend on my 6 hour each way trip to the mountains. I had this very weird vibration, almost like a grinding noise, going up the curvy windy mountains. On the way back down, the vibration was noiseless, but the front end of the car was shaking pretty badly...

    Dear local auto parts stores:

    Dear local auto parts stores: I hate you. No, I take that back. I hate most of you. Why, you ask, do I hate you? One. I cannot find what I'm looking for 80% of the time. What I do find are off brand, not-even-close to what I'm looking for, probably won't fit correctly type replacements...

    Review: Crue Fest

    I am in rehab today. Not from od'ing on the alcoholic beverages but rather because I forgot to eat. For 6 hours. This show was at an outdoor venue. It just so happened to rain for two days straight. Right up to the moment Trapt stepped onto the stage. Traffic was ridiculous, which in turn...

    ? on recall

    So I got my little claim form awhile back on the valve cover gasket. Of course, mine were already done way back in November. If I'm reading this correctly, I am just supposed to submit my invoice for the parts and they are reimbursing me for those and whatever the labor was, correct?

    So, along the lines of stupid people and freakin' neighbors...

    The landlord from the property next to mine is the proud recipient of a nuisance letter. I'm expecting a little bit of morbid amusement out of this for a variety of reasons, mostly the fact that it was me and two other property owners that retained an attorney to send it. To give you an idea...

    The car is possessed...again

    Okay, well I am posting this here, as it is electrical. It is not necessarily audio, but electrical I would say is the closest subforum. Plus I figure with aftermarket audio most of us have aftermarket alarms. That said... Most of you know my audio setup. I also have one of those cool-a$$...

    Ode to new car shop guys

    So, as most of you know, I took my 9 year old in today to get some new Falkens. I go to the same place every time for all my suspension/tire work. I have the same guy for the past 9 years do everything that needs doing. And there's a new guy at the counter. This is the context of each and...

    I love the spring

    Cuz I can bring my springtime goodies out I had this manufactured for me some time ago by the Dashhugger in Victorville, CA. Not to be confused with the one in Clovis.

    Senior dog?

    Anyone else here have a senior citizen dog? What I mean is a dog in his teens? I'm having some problems and could use some advice from you animal lovers. My puppy, he will always be my puppy, is about to turn 15 in September. I got him when he was about 6 weeks old. He is a purebred...

    Anyone need a good laugh?

    I have it for you. Right here. My new windows for my house were scheduled to be installed, beginning between 8 and 10 a.m. (Mind you, I DJed the night before, meaning I crawled into bed sometime around 3:30 after cashing out and closing up.) So, bright and early, 7:30 rolls in. I get the...

    Does it annoy you...

    to wash your car? We had a break in the weather over the weekend, so I cleaned up the Great White Beast. I don't mind doing it. In fact, I do it primarily to tick the neighbors off. But what I do mind is EVERY time I clean the car I find more stuff to fix. This weekend's session caused me...

    SES

    Let's play guess the cause. New fuel pump went in Tuesday a.m. It "hums", like the same frequency as one of those huge lights in a parking lot. No problems yesterday until last night when the light kicked on. Used 1/4 of a tank of gas to drive 13 miles today.

    RIP

    This morning, between the hours of midnight and 2 a.m., my fuel pump passed away. She was aged a little over 183K miles. She was preceded in death by a coupler, snout, windshield, power steering pump, rack, several tires, and a window switch. She will be looked after by all of your engines...

    People who should know better

    If you park your car in someone else's driveway, knowing full well that person has a towing contract, do you not assume the risk of having your car towed? *insert yes answer here* Then, why would a person who does this have the audacity to pound on my door at 7:30 a.m. when his car gets towed...
