Powershift posted:My signature move is "I'll just patch it in a hackey way for now and fix it right when i get the chance" turning into a permanent fix. I was at an old employer's shop shooting the poo poo with the old boss a couple months back and I confirmed that my career's most desperate hail Mary hack fix has now done over 900000 km and is still working fine. It has thus far outlasted the original unmolested component by 300000km.

Dr. Lunchables posted:Anti-seize I buy semi-regularly, though the bottles always managed to get covered in grease and anti-seize, so they look decades old the minute I open them. There's no clean way to use the stuff, you just have to accept that you and all of your surroundings are going to look like you gave the tin man a handjob for a while.

Grumbletron 4000 posted:Gonna go look at a 2011 Volvo S40 T5 tomorrow. $3200. Can anyone give a quick rundown of why this is a good/ bad idea?... FYI there's a Volvo thread and most goons there only read their sub'd threads so that's the best place to ask. That is a lot of miles, they're great cars and solid but you will be spending a lot on maintenance. Do a timing belt, a PCV/oil filter housing, a whole cooling system and both accessory belts as a baseline and be ready for some weird expensive stuff to break. They're reliable but they're not Camrys. They are mostly Focus parts but everything that isn't common to the focus or to all the other whiteblocks can be pricey, and there is a lot of it.
