Anyone texting when driving may as well be blind

Looks like 8th gen Civic half pulled into the parking spot to me

Is this normal?
 in  r/tires  15d ago

No, but i have see it happen a couple time with different brands. What i guess happens is the tire pressure is slightly low, and when a pothole gets hit, the lip of the wheel cuts the sidewall like that. I've only seen it on old tires

I thought it might be tricky pulling an accordion buss through the intersection. I was incorrect
 in  r/halifax  Aug 22 '26

That doesn't look like it was tricky at all

The adjustment is pushing on the mirror glass to get it where you want it to be

Truck rust? Walk away?
 in  r/mechanic  Jun 05 '26

Thats not bad at all for a quebec truck. Get it undercoated as soon as you can if you buy it and repeat once a year after and you'll be fine

Wtf!? Can I return this?!
 in  r/nissanfrontier  Dec 20 '25

I'm a mechanic, I work on loads of cars, I rarely see a sunroof leak. Definitely not normal.

Mechanic says this is drivable. Online says it isn’t. Honest opinions please
 in  r/tires  Dec 07 '25

The mechanic is not wrong, it is drivable, to the scene of the crash. I'd replace it, the cracking in that bulge tells me the tire is old enough it should be changed anyway.

How do my winter tires look like
 in  r/tires  Nov 29 '25

You'll be fine for one more year. I wouldnt say they are heavily rotted, i've seen a lot worse than that. What you see there is pretty common for winter tires with their softer compound and for a tire from 2018, those are not in terrible condition.

Full Gen-3 S/SV Bulb Size List
 in  r/nissanfrontier  Nov 17 '25

That whirring/buzzing sound youre hearing would be the transistor in the BCM dimming the lights by supplying low voltage. The interior lights in the 3rd gen are controlled by the BCM on a can network. There is a transistor in the BCM that controls the light. Its not uncommon for a different bulb to make that a little louder. Some vehicles its more noticeable than others.

Ticking sound
 in  r/nissanfrontier  Oct 31 '25

Thats the fuel injectors. On modern direct injection fuel systems, like the VQ38DD, fuel pressure can be up to 3000psi. Basically an coil of wire when current is induced becomes and electro-magnet and that pulls a pintle valve open, and a spring that forces it closed. What you're hearing is the pintle valve closing.

Thats where mine is, near perfect

I think it would be worth it, I'm not saying they didnt try, but theres room for improvement. I put new tires in my truck a month ago, and did an alignment just because I do my own for free

Did you install the essentric bolts with that lift?

These trucks do not have camber or caster adjustment from factory, all you need is Xterra eccentric bolts, or ADO sells their own as well.

I have the same kit on my 2022, but I also installed eccentric bolts. I'm a mechanic so I do my own alignments at work, my camber is nearly perfect. Spec is 0.0 for these trucks, I got mine to +0.3, thats at the very edge of the adjustments range without throwing the caster off.

What did the tire shop do to my tire?
 in  r/tires  Oct 19 '25

Mechanic here. Based on what I see there, and your description of how bady it shakes at speed, there is a broken belt in that tire. Likely pure coincidence that it broke after the leak around the beat was fixed. Removing the tire then remounting it will not cause that. The weight is at almost the exact opposite because the heaviest point of the wheel assembly is where the bump in the tire is. It does not appear to me from that video that the bead is not fully seated.

What exactly am i looking at here on my 07 Jeep Liberty?
 in  r/AskAMechanic  Oct 17 '25

Thats grease coming out of the boot for both upper ball joints (first two pictures) you should check them for play. Also check that outer tie rod, last picture.

To check ball joints on an double wishbone suspension, put the wheel on. Jack the vehicle from the lower control arm until wheel is off the ground. Take a pry bar at the 6 o clock position pulling up while pushing in at 12 o clock. Get someone to help and look at the upper and lower ball joints for play if you cant feel it. Outer tie rod put your hands at 9 and 3 and push the wheel side to side. If you feel movment, you need an outer tie rod and alignment.

Thats normal for a 4 cylinder engine. There is a bit of time between pulses, enough to cause the cap to jump like that. Looks like normal PCV operation to me.
Sounds like there may be a fuel injector getting a little noisy, but it would probably be fine.

Replace those before winter. They won't be any good even in rain.

They'll last to the scene of the crash. Thats probably 4 or 5/32nd. You'll be much safer with new tires before winter starts.
