Welp... Time to swap the motor.
By Cuprum-74
Couple of weeks ago I was on the freeway, I decided to pass a slow semi and floor it. Soon after I heard a god awful knocking from the motor and lost huge amounts of power. I limped home & took off the valve covers to check the valvetrain, which came out all right. Then I borescoped the cylinders to check them out. They all looked fine, no signs of a blown head gasket. So... I figured that left the crank area as the cuplrit... I hate being right sometimes. So it's a budget build roller... Read more

Strut mount or steering rack?
By MikePA717
Hello! I've been dealing with this for years. I'll try to be quick and to the point. It's a 2019 LX with 111,000 miles. I live in Mid-Atlantic USA. All four seasons here. Since 2023, when I bought my car used, I've had an issue during summer months. It had binding or sticking steering in left turns. In winter it goes away and then comes back next summer. This year, it got so bad I was afraid to drive it and took it an independent shop. Of course we had cool weather the day it went in and... Strut mount or steering rack?
New-to-me LJ78
By tdbeasley
Hey there! Just purchased a 1990 LJ78 with the 2LTE. These forums have been tremendously helpful for figuring out if I wanted to buy this thing and what ownership may look like. So, thank you! My background is in Datsun stuff so it’s neat to see how builds take shape on the Toyota side of things. So far the truck has been a treat to drive. I purchased it on Vancouver Island and I’m told it was first owned by a lady in Comox who had it serviced regularly in Ladysmith. I believe at Flying... Read more
Blend Door Coupling?
By pauley05
Looking for some help here, 2009 ram 1500. Finally pulled the whole dash to replace my heater core as I only had hot air on passenger side. Not that bad of a job but I noticed the white plastic piece that adapts the foot actuator output to the D shapped shaft on the physical hvac door was stripped out. I have looked but have been unsuccessful finding this coupling, does anyone have a better breakdown of this hvac box or a part number? Next option is to pull it out and try to 3d print one...

2026 Mazda3 CarPlay static/distortion issue
By GTEyes
Hi there, I've been having a recurring issue with the sound coming out of my infotainment (Bose system). Here's the situation: When listening to music or podcasts via Apple CarPlay, the sound will start to stutter/skip slightly then eventually become distorted and full of static. I've tried switching out the USB-C cable, that didn't solve the issue. I then flipped to using Wireless CarPlay, that seemed to work for a month or so until yesterday. So it's now doing it occasionally via... Read more
Time sert install
By Ceplina20
Hey guys, a few weeks ago I had a spark plug blow up and ripped the threads out. I bought the time sert kit to do the repair. From what I have been reading online, is to make sure all the valves are close before I bore out the hole. I plan on leaving the heads on the car. I’m just asking if anyone has any tips before I tackle this project Sent from my iPhone using the [emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]]][emoji638][emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji640]]]svtperformance.com mobile app
