    What would your first car be worth in mint condition?

    2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T. Sold it two years ago for $8200. Sad thing is after two years the prices seemed to have actually gone up in my area.

    NON_POLITICAL China Coronavirus THREAD

    No one really knows yet, but there's a paper from Nature that gives a bit more insight: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-020-0820-9?adobe_mc=TS%3D1584561892%7CMCMID%3D22120076161542296363628322793787979963%7CMCORGID%3D2C7336C753C676BA0A490D4B%2540AdobeOrg "The genomic features described...

    NON_POLITICAL China Coronavirus THREAD

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but from the cases in US, it doesn't seem like it can make you seriously sick from what I last looked at. And people should be practicing good hygiene anyways even before this whole virus thing. I'm always amazed at the amount of people that don't even wash their hands...

    Winter-specific rims and tires or no, what sayest thou?

    I live in Vancouver, Canada, and I have winter tires on all my vehicles. Never knew it made such a big difference until I actually got them. The weather is mild most of the time but it's definitely worth it for the week or so that gets snow/ice. An alternative is to swap the all-season for...

    Discussion Is My Car Totaled?

    Surprised the airbags didn't deploy from that. Was going to say if the air bags went off then it's probably guaranteed to be written off. I think it'd be pretty close considering your entire front end + fenders got smashed pretty good. To be honest hope you'd get it totalled and use the money...

    How come we haven't done our own anti-China/pro Hong Kong publicity stunt yet?

    All you'll get is people spamming FREE HONG KONG on every single thread, no matter if it has anything to do with it or not.

    Carmax Experiences?

    Yea, usually dealers don't like older cars. They also have to factor all the potential problems it might have and have to give a low ball price. I would just sell it through Craigslist. Like others have said I have noticed values for older cars have been increasing, so it may be worth a shot...

    Flu shot makes you sick

    Thinking it's more likely because you have to go to a clinic to get the shot, and the clinic has a bunch of sick people spreading germs. People in North America don't like to wear a mask when they have cold symptoms so it might spread easy.

    DIY cardiology testing?

    To be fair, the best thing you can do is just regular exercise. Another option is to get an Apple Watch to monitor your heartbeat. There's articles that say it actually picked up irregular heartbeat for people. Canada can definitely learn from other countries in operating health care. South...

    DIY cardiology testing?

    I doubt the doctor would even refer you if the basic blood tests/ECG checks out and you are otherwise healthy. Even if you do it will probably be like 4-6 months wait. I got referred to a gastroenterologist for stomach problems and its like "we'll call you in 4 months". Times like this where I...

    Nit-picking as I plan my radiator-flush and hose replacements

    My bad, didn't seem to connect the dots on all the other threads you had! Well it does sound like you want to stay on top on of everything that can cause you trouble. People have said that the upper hose usually wears out faster due to constant heating and cooling vs the lower hose. So if you...

    Nit-picking as I plan my radiator-flush and hose replacements

    I'd just leave it if it looks fine. What would really ruin them is if you have an oil leak and it ends up getting onto the hoses, so check that first. Also you typed on all that but didn't say what car it was? I'm sure somebody here will have better advice knowing what car it is.

    When changing rotors, is it ususal to change the pads too?

    Obviously they don't mean connected literally. The pads and rotors wear out at the same time so you need to replace both. This is true for the other german brands too.

    Another option is Harbor Freight, they usually have stuff that are pretty cheap. If you are just using them occasionally then it's not bad.

    Hong Kong.... Fighting for democracy

    Technically Hong Kong never had democracy. Also do understand western media do have bias in reporting as well and there are two sides to everything. Believe it or not Hong Kong has been peaceful and hasn't changed much after the takeover.

    Question All in one laser printer suggestions

    Since you don't print that much I would stick to original toners. The quality on the generic ones are kind of hit and miss. Don't have a very big sample size, but my office uses generic ones and I get duds like 15-20% of the time. It sucks to swap in a new cartridge only to have it print streaks.

    People with warts on your head, are you just plain stupid?

    Because why take the risk if you doesn't impact your health? Doing any of that stuff has risk. Had a doctor freeze a wart and he did it too much...things didn't end up too well.

    Downward lateral car move

    Sometimes age catches up even if it's something reliable. Definitely wouldn't go down to something 10 years older unless you wanted a specific generation/model. Instead of one big expense you might end up with 5 different smaller things break just due to age. Did you know why the timing chain...

    Is it common for repair shops to jack up prices of parts?

    Do you mean buying from the dealer for OEM prices? Shop shouldn't charge more than what a dealer would charge at most for parts. (Otherwise you would just go to the dealer to do it.) Not much you can do now after you paid. But then charging 1 hr for the job isn't that bad so maybe they were just...

    2015 GS350 AWD ... bad idea?

    It's a good idea to have a mechanic check any used car you are buying. Also you want them to check for any evidence of accident damage that was fixed, as it will affect resale greatly.

    Help identifying what car to buy

    Still seems silly to throw away the car when it can be fixed for >$500. Unless there's a ton of other issues with the car. If it's been maintained well those things last a long time. But anyways, seems like a compact car would suit you. Try out all the usual suspects and see what you like...

    Walmart Managers Make on Average- $175k a year.

    Not familiar with how it works in the US, but why wouldn't they just round the hours to the schedule start time? Seems kinda dumb having to wait for the exact minute to match the scheduled time.

    Whom is still rocking an Athlon / Phenom II (even X6), or a Core2Duo/Quad? X58 users too.

    It's amazing how usable these chips still are after 10 years. Still using a Phenom II for everyday tasks and it doesn't feel slow at all, even with a mechanical HDD. I think the main thing is making sure the rig is 8gb+ ram, as browsers like Chrome/Firefox eat memory and it would bog down if you...

    Convince me that I don't want a Golf GTI

    I mean, since you drive so little, I don't think it makes sense for you to get a new car. It would make more sense for you to rent a GTI (or whatever car you want to try) once every few weekends when you want to make a nice long trip. You'd probably it enjoy way more and is probably much...

    Computer build - text mining / data analysis

    Thank you for the reply, upon further research I found the following: -R is normally single-threaded, but you can run Microsoft R instead which can parallelize the work across multiple threads. Unfortunately it seems that it only works with Intel. -R also seems do run its data all through RAM...

    03 CRV Caliper always seized?

    Well it seems to be fine with the 3rd caliper for now, time will tell and see if stays that way. One thing I did notice though was that while bleeding the brakes, the side with the rebuilt caliper seemed to have less pressure than the other side. I wonder if that would cause it, in which case I...

    03 CRV Caliper always seized?

    Sorry forgot to mention I also did the rotors and pads on the 2nd caliper. Every time the caliper is being swapped for another rebuilt unit. Brake fluid was good the last time I checked. On this last replacement I bled all the brakes with new fluid.

    03 CRV Caliper always seized?

    Trying to get people's opinion to see if it's me or just bad luck with parts. Got a 03 CRV that had a leaky front left caliper, so got that replaced with a rebuilt unit 2 years ago. Half a year later, the rebuilt unit seized, so I replaced it again, this time with new brake hoses on both sides...

    Tired of tires

    Looking at tirerack, the Pirellis wear quickly because it looks like its a summer tire with a 220 wear rating. The tires you are looking at now are grand touring tires and in general they wear much longer and are generally quieter in comparison. I have a Hyundai Genesis Coupe on 225/45/18 and...

    What do you do with your old unusable electronics?

    Downsize tires for winter? Calculations?

    Depends if 16" can clear your brakes. The shop can test fit that for you. The sizes are all so close and within close enough range of the original size that it really shouldn't matter what you pick. I would say whatever cheapest size available would be fine.
