I don't even want to replace it, but Chicago winters get very cold...

>Not getting your wheels balanced

Did you sue?

Sue? Why? They fixed it for free. The warning light hasn't appeared since either. The dealership also notified me of the error code and cleared it free of charge.

Atleast alil compensation should have been in order. From what i read They knowingly sold you a defective car.

i use this to go up hills and to overtake other cars on the highway

Nope, bought years before the scandal.

This may not be the place to ask but why do people use AC? Both my vehicles have AC. Never use it. Gets 100°F+ in the summer.
>being a sensitive little bitch
>not rolling windows down to be more connected with the sounds of the road

Also never use my heater, and it gets down to 10°F in the winter. Why are you fellas so gay?

?????

You must look terrible with your sweat stains and messy hair

i use it sometimes, mostly roll with my windows down but at highway speeds the air can be too much

>come to a stop
>stereo significantly decreases in volume

Because I like the pressure in my ears to remain the same, and I don't like not being able to see because there's hair in my eyes.

*deafening grinding noise*

Overall I'm just happy my a/c still works. 94 Honda Civic EX with 322k miles.

But is it Ice Cold™?

it is actually surprisingly. I only use it on the highway though. The engine is so worn out it literally sucks to drive in town with the ac on robbing what little power it still has.

>100° burger=37.7 centigrade

Woah, what a tough guy, being insensitive to 38° heat! Must be, what, 120, 130 inside your car? Sugoi desu ne!

Call back when you're someplace where heat is an actual issue, faggot

Have a cute, old little Hilux with no aircon, and it came from the factory with some shitty fake leather, you could easily get burned if it wasn't in the shade. That was a fun one

A lot of the time it's just your brain fooling you. You would be surprised at how much of your static peripheral vision is actually just what your brain fills in from memory.

Easy to fix though.

>Can no longer select anything but no A/C or heat or FULL BLAST
Something electrical has failed behind the dash of my ‘01 Dakota, and I don’t want to crack the dash to find it. Also,
>ABS and e-brake light are on permanently
>E-brake is not engaged and brakes feel fine
Why

>01 Dak
>dash not already cracked
I know what you meant but my 01 Ram's dash is in little pieces.

I ran my poor Ram low as fuck on oil once because I'm dumb. It now takes a little more time to build oil pressure than it used to, but the truck still runs fine. I use high quality oil so I'm not too concerned but I think I may have slightly damaged the oil pump or sucked some gunk into the pickup screen. Oil pressure is fine after startup though.

just like in your video games ay

My car has some volume compensation bs that raises and lowers the volume with speed.

You've scored a main

Well that explains it. What's the fucking point?

>press automatic window button when car is stopped
>windows barely move
>start moving
>windows whizz down

>press both window buttons down at the same time

lel

>only the driver's side window has an automatic function
Why do so many cars do this? Literally how hard would it be to put the same sort of switch on both windows?

Your alternator is dying.

why

>perceived heat is only dependent on temperature, humidity is completely unrelated
Best example I have is from a few years ago.
>go to Sardegna, Italy
>+40° celsius, humidity 10-20%
>no problem, windows down is good enough
>drive home through Germany
>30° celsius, humidity 70%
>fucking unbearable without a/c
An a/c brings down the humidity too, making it feel even colder than just the temperature drop actually is.
Same effect with cold, humidity makes you feel the temperature more

>hit rock and crush front diffuser
>head unit, car charger, and clock stop working

Probably unseated some electricaks :/

This. If you want even more power put the heat on full blast and open your windows with ac off so the compressor isn't running and your car stays cooler.

Check for electrical gemremlins: bad battery/connections. Autozone/oreillys can help you diagnose the battery for free but just do the connections yourself.

>rev car
>headlights glow brighter

>car stalls if I try to crawl on 87 octane
>does just fine on 91

Its like it needs it or something.

>91 is premium in America
Fuck, no wonder it's cheap.

I hope you praise and thank whatever god you believe in everyday for not being a blind, mangled mess.

91 is Premium in Commiefornia. 93 is Premium in most of the rest of the US. Has something to do with the Octane level dropping from the transportation.

It’s a 1.5L n/a Korean 4-banger, basest of the base trims. Nothing about this car is performance-oriented, I’m sure that Hyundai wouldn’t make 91 a requirement on this car. It’s old and worn out and has probably lost some horsepower in its 15 years of abuse. Also it’s manual, so it’s not like it has a fluid coupling to help with slow starts.

Brake booster pulls vacuum, causing energy loss to the alternator. Get a new alternator.

>Have to renew my license tags this month
>Had to cancel my inspection last week because of work shit
>Going to get it inspected yesterday afternoon
>Running errands yesterday
>Check engine light comes on
FUCK YOU

You understand that "super 95" shit they sell in Germany / EU is a RON of 95 which translates to AKI of 90 for us Americans. Our premium AKI is generally 91. And is still a third of the cost than euro poor gasoline.

because it gets louder the faster you go?
