Actually, if you’re in a situation where true winter tires (Blizzaks or Nokians or such) aren’t practical for you (say you live in a place where winter temps are often around 50F or higher, or you road trip to warmer places during the winter), the “all weather” snowflake tires are not a bad option. I’ve got mild…

As stupid as it is to have low profile tires on a big truck, the tread on those tires looks decent enough to be able to navigate that snow. My question is why would you lift a 2WD truck? What obstacle can you clear with just a rear open diff that needs that much ground clearance? Alas I think the neon camo pattern…

Lol, you ending this w/saying that this car is in damn good shape is like Mrs Lincoln enjoying the play.

Autonomous cars are going to be ten years away from being common until the heat death of the universe.

Porsche does not want self-driving features? I find this to be a wise stance. If you want to get driven to work while snuggled in a blanket, nursing a hangover in the back seat, you probably won’t do it in a Porsche.

Classic throwout bearing issue. I love that so many of us here can diagnose a part that most folks don’t know exists.

I saw an ad the other day for a super clean NA Miata that was missing its motor. $5k. I’d laugh if this wasn’t the new norm.

He looks like a diet version of Ron Perlman.

Having been through Germany’s TÜV inspection, I’m certain it would not have prevented this failure.

These fucking articles - all day by every news outlet. Murders up 900% from last year, car sales up 320% from last year, without mentioning that from 2019 to 2020 everything decreased significantly because of lockdowns.

I'd rather die than live in such a jurisdiction.

The Black Death started in 1346- 7. The Industrial Revolution started around 1760. I doubt the black death had anything to do with the Industrial Revolution 400 years later. Nothing good seems to have come out of the Black Death Black Death | Definition, Cause, Symptoms, Effects, Death Toll, & Facts | Britannica.

Nailed it on the throw out bearing and the mounts. Good work.

Came to say all of that.

In before everybody else:

Neither the CEO of Rolls-Royce, nor a shrug has killed anyone. A less pessimistic person would say Torsten Müller-Ötvös was bringing a positive message of living our lives to the fullest, celebrating life. You can make all things doom and gloom, accuse others of nefarious things etc. if that’s what you choose. But you…

Your clutch doesn’t need an adjustment, you need a new throwout bearing (and you might as well put a clutch in it while you are in there). But it might go a long, long time like that, just don’t hold the pedal to the floor at lights - put it in neutral and let the clutch out to save as much wear and tear as possible.

Oh look, the black supremacist police killer leader, the dipshit anti-science clown chimed in!! ArtistAtLarge, everybody!!

She’s a teacher. She wasn’t just worried about herself and her kid, she was worried about all the other kids and their families that she would potentially spread the virus to.

Stop scaring people with COVID hospitalization headlines, and maybe they wouldn’t take such extreme measures to avoid catching it.
