Never done it, but a fairly common mishap.

Yes, you will have to season your Cybertruck like a cast iron skillet.

Ford is quite capable of making GBS threads themselves without any help.

kastein posted:I've already seen multiple people suggesting that you should refresh your stainless bodywork by scrubbing it with steel wool. Memory might be hazy, but IIRC reading about it at the time that was the Delorean method. Different alloys, etc. Of course I'm probably wrong. Not implying it was normal to give it a once over with a SOS pad.

Probably a liability standpoint vs implementation. Imagine some 16-year-old that claims they were pushing buttons to turn on the wipers during a storm...and well the drat thing went into park causing a skid and 10 puppies get thrown out into downed powerlines.

chrisgt posted:transmissions don't just lock up when going into park. the pawl will just ratchet over the gear until you're almost stopped. Like I said liability. For push button controls, there will be a controller motor/module that controls the parking pawl/shifts.

That is why the modern car needs a tiller.

I'm going to assume the triangles are for descent control and not volume.

All I know is that somehow, doesn't matter where, the second I hit the cruise button I attract everyone who feels the need to cut me off and drive below the limit.

I always like the deja vu crap. Pass an interesting load on a tractor trailer...then someone needs the pee break. Fifteen minutes later you pass the same drat thing again.

So do you have to remember a sequence of different lights to finally start the car?

Guess my basic question is wouldn't this failure be reported and someone would need to fill out a shitload of paperwork.

You should be able to take some measurements (diameter, wrist pin size, skirt size, ring count, etc.) and search catalogs for the application given its good condition.

Not wearing one you are tossed free and clear and able to walk away. There was a video posted two weeks back in this forum demonstrating that.

No. 6 posted:Airbags can deploy at different rates. It pops much faster when you're belted, slower when the car detects no belt buckled. Last thing I'm going to trust is airbags/circuits/logic/sensors on a vehicle. The entire industry is a clusterfuck. Seatbelts are the go to.

That is quite a laugh... I've been to a ton of dealerships/service centers/repair shops...whatever... And I'll leave out the Indie type mechanics that specializes, has the concrete block walls, a computer system from Soviet Russia generating invoices on tri-carboned paper from a dot matrix printer yet has a few million worth of cars in the bays. It is either a marbled palace or a shithole at big dealerships. There is no in-between. You are either experiencing marble with a Keurig or smelling gas/oil/Napa type store smells.

After all the recent breakdown footage, I took a look at RockAuto yesterday for what was available in the way of Tesla 3 parts...and was fairly impressed with the selection. A crap ton of it was Dorman but there was quite a selection of suspension, door handles, etc.

Yeah, the Northstar placed the starter there. Of course plenty of turbo motors (i.e. Ford Powerstroke) have turbo there for maximum thermal efficiency.
