Wrong

Not necessarily, the point of the vacuum tool is to pull the air out of the system so you don’t get airlocks, especially in places where there aren’t bleeders. Whilst a funnel with a stop is a cool tool and would work perfectly fine on a car that has a procedure for manual bleeding (like the R53 Mini), I wouldn’t want…

Sarcasm?

The previous owner claims that a cooling system flush was already done. The squeaky clean pink coolant seems to support that.

For all you folks who want to malign Jaguars and Land Rovers, shame on you. You philistines. You just can’t appreciate the beauty of these vehicles’ classically-influenced designs and old-school appointments.

General Motors!

Fun fact: Animals with feathers still have skin.

Honestly, I think it’s because fasteners such as screws are expensive, they they are typically bought as cheaply as possible with anti corrosion coatings (which don’t look as nice, but still better than rust). There are decorative bolts, but they cost even more and may or may not be as corrosion resistant. It’s often…

This is a bad take.

Why do you feel the need to absolutely *hate with a fiery passion that has been stereotyped into your entire generation* crossovers so often?**

*hate in this context means write with your usual mix of charm, skepticism, and on-brand jalopness

it will be when tesla sees he didnt pay his 16k and is still driving around in a repaired car and voids his warranty. that article will be coming up.  itll be in the folder where they take away fsd and supercharging from 2nd and 3rd owners because they personally didnt buy the cars with those options. 

It is right to repair issue because Tesla won’t even sell you the part that broke (or pretty much any part for one of their cars) or let anyone else sell an equivalent replacement. With full right to repair they would have to offer it so any shop willing to open up a battery pack could replace it properly.

They aren’t going to trash the old pack (that’s why there’s a core charge that forces you to turn in the old pack).

I think Tesla actually did that. Or it was something like some home depot wood corner trim and a ratchet strap.

I think that the shadiest thing tesla was trying to pull was trying to avoid giving the old battery back to the leasee. perfectly good tesla batteries are big money and they were trying to prevent him from receiving his original battery while still charging full price for the new one.

I would say citation required on an example of a Tesla customer successfully getting their old pack back from Tesla service after a pack replacement. If the law in NJ really is such, Tesla can easily add a high core charge to get around that.

Then charging $16K is unmitigated bullshit.

Actually if you watch the video he actually brings up the fact that there was no core charge and again from the video under New Jersey law if there is no core charge the customer has the right to keep the broken parts which he said he wanted but Tesla wanted to force him to jump through massive hoops to allow him to…

this isnt solely a tesla problem.  we need much much stronger right to repair bills in this country.  this is just one of hundreds of thousands of bullshit examples. 

No core charge for the battery, and in Jersey you have a right to keep that part if it doesn’t have a core charge. He was going to do so before he came across Rich Rebuilds.
