Was just informing Chris of his options - that's all. The comment was for him.

I see that now, sorry for budding on your discussion.

Got my faded gray grille and bowtie painted black.

Need to get the brush guard re-finished now.

And refinish your headlights

100%

I can't stand the way they look haha deciding on buying aftermarket or sanding these clear. And the bottom driver side has moisture in it. Gah!

if they have moisture in them then the seal is shot. you should see if you can get clear lenses for the turn signals, open up your headlights, and refinish the lenses

I may try to dry them out and put some clear caulk or something along the edge to see if it'll seal it up. Not sure if clear corners are Legal here?

not quite sure why they wouldn't be. I'm only talking about the lenses for the turn signals. you should keep the amber bulbs

Kids had a fun run at school. Wife was running it so I helped. Had to take the generator for the bubble machines and music

So far on this beautiful day, today I've sold and programmed a GM#15252034 FOB to a 2008 Cobalt and repaired and sold one of the same for a 2010 Malibu. Cut some lawn and changed an H11 bulb on the wife's G6, what a pain. This afternoon I have a cluster repair and an other Caravan FOB repair to do. Good day so far!!! Already 24°C ( 75°F ) and not a cloud in the sky.

Any recommendations for a new OBDII scanner than can read and clear SRS and ABS codes on Hondas and MAzdas? the intune I have been using to read codes can't find my honda. Bluedriver doesn';t work with honda OR mazda. Caused the CE to come on when doing an induction cleaning, and was shocked the intune can't find the ECU(I'm updating it now but they haven't sold the one I have in a few years so doubt an update will fix it)

 

Innova 3150f or 3160g?

I use the Torque Pro APP on my Android with a bluetooth OBDII elm327 decoder. It worked with every vehicle I ever worked on so far.

it can't read new hondas, or at least some features.

 

 

this guy had it not work, and then it did, for no apparent reason.

whats is odd is my tahoe had a CANBUS and the intune worked fine on it. I guess the intune could just be dead. I'll run by a parts store in a few days and see if they will let me push the erase codes button, lol. I'm hearing some stores won't do it now. t

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
