Putting in a new battery today...old one is nearly 4 years old and it needed a jump this morning. I've got a prorated warranty, so that should sting a bit less.
New battery solved the problem, but I only got $26 for the old one.Matt said:Putting in a new battery today...old one is nearly 4 years old and it needed a jump this morning. I've got a prorated warranty, so that should sting a bit less.
I read the box up and down, checked some online reviews, and opened the box and examined what I could of the unit itself before purchasing. It was something like $10 or more, while I could have had a Purolator Gold for $7 or a PF61 for like $5, so I wanted to be more confident in the cost.Sparky said:I've been using the Mobil 1 filters for a few years now.

Let me know what they quote for just the hood painting portion if you can. I have been looking a bit and all the quotes on painting the cowl hood seem high enough I may be doing a full spraypaint and some vinyl on itMatt said:Went to the body shop yesterday arvo, he's going to ring me later today or tomorrow with the price for a new painted hood.
Tried to replace the rear drivers door handle and found out it's not the door handle, it's the brace/bracket that holds it on rusted and fell apart. And that's a part that is not available except off a junk one...fortunately just found 2 at the local junkyard, so my arse will be out there early on Sunday morning.

Shout out to mrwitty...made me take another look at the new handle I got from Rock Auto and it did have the bracket. (I'm a dickhead) 20 minutes and I have a door handle that doesn't flap in the breeze.Matt said:Tried to replace the rear drivers door handle and found out it's not the door handle, it's the brace/bracket that holds it on rusted and fell apart.
