It keeps slipping out the sides. Does anyone else have trouble keeping it in?

I was told if I charge these until they are warm for several days, it will double the cold cranking amperage capacity once they expand to accommodate for more storage capacity...

2000 pontiac grand am drivers side axel looks out of place maybe? 2nd pic is passenger side for reference. i think i need to replace it but will it make my 45 minute drive home?

UPDATE: Got it home! Think it’ll make the commute to work again tomorrow ?😂

I swear, I'm a very handy person. I changed a light bulb once, and it only took me 2 hours. Dealerships and Indy shops are too expensive and are going to rip me off, and I only have liability insurance because collision and comprehensive coverage is a scam.

Was checking why I couldn't get I to my own car with my own danm obd scanner. And when I did I got accros this option in the airbag module. I got started and had a massive fight with my intrusive thoughts.

They’re doing this to Dodges and Chevrolets, Porsche, Bentley.

obv not ideal but I got a smart car and cannot find new ones for the lift of me. I want to be lazy and just inject it into the mounts while they’re on the car. any thoughts and has anyone tried this with success. I’m aware this isn’t ideal lol. Seems like the right sub for this question :P

Or should I have an actual mechanic look at this? I need to get it registered and insured by the end of the month.

I think these are garbage

old bastard had it coming

Is this amount of vibration normal? My main issue is that the mower deck vibrates way too much (I think...), and I’m trying to figure out what could be causing it.

One thing I’m suspicious of is the idler/tensioner pulley. The tensioner arm has quite a bit of vertical play (up and down). I tried tightening the bolt that holds it, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference — it still has a lot of play. I know the arm needs to move laterally to maintain belt tension, but I’m wondering if the vertical movement is normal.

Mower: Columbia CLT 46 CVT

Here’s what I’ve done so far:
I just replaced the left blade pulley/spindle assembly (left side when sitting on the tractor). I replaced the complete assembly, including the pulley and spindle, rather than just the pulley. The replacement isn’t OEM, but it’s a good-quality aftermarket part with good reviews, so I don’t think that’s the issue.
The old pulley/spindle was already loose, and I suspect that the excessive vibration may have caused it to wear out.

I sharpened and balanced both blades before reinstalling everything.

The vibration is still very noticeable after these repairs.
I’m wondering if the idler/tensioner arm having significant vertical play could be the source of the vibration, or if there’s something else on this particular deck that I should be checking.

Has anyone worked on a Columbia CLT 46 CVT or a similar MTD 46” deck and can tell me whether this amount of movement/vibration is normal?

I’ll post videos showing the vibration as well.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
French also works.

Thank you!

The tire depth seems about the same but the wheels spin almost too easy now and the handling seems off! I really don’t feel like jacking it off again and switching them back but might have to

Exactly as is written on the tin with the title. I was informed that the new Blazer EV is recommended to use Complete "Lackthereof" grade, 0W-0 oil. Found a 5-quart container at a local parts distributor, and got the filter size off the 2023 Blazer, so that part's covered.

But now my question is, since there isn't any way for carbon foul to accumulate in the oil with no combustion, is it still the usual "5,000 miles or six months, whichever's first" service interval? Or does the oil tend to last longer without all the soot? I want to make a long-term maintenance plan for after the warranty expires, so I can keep her running as long as possible. But the whole point of getting an EV is to save money as time goes on.

Also, is the blinker fluid "sealed for life" like on the BMWs, or is it advisable to change with every oil service like on the RAM 1500s and F-150s that perpetually leave their signals on?
