the problem with the factory HID's is they are only 25w, which still sucks
it cost me about $100 to upgrade to 50w on the wifes 16, the silverado was a little more because the bulb model is a odd D5S, a pair of 35w aftermarket can be found for around $35 and they run at 50w no problem, mine have...
HID's work better in projector housings. Sometimes if LED's are used the adjustable ones can work but you will still have a dead spot
I converted the wife's projectors to HID they work pretty decent.
if you go HID I would recommend using quality ballast's and a relay, they tend to require more...
I know mine is pretty clean lol, the wife's 16 needed a full service but we bought it with about 90k on it and the previous owner probably never pushed the pedal much.
the direct injection motors are more prone to buildup
I drove about an hour for my last one, yard had a few one was in pretty good shape but was still bolted on and they wanted there "guy" to pull it and he proceeded to jam a forklift arm into the bottom of it, wasn't too bad I took it anyway and filled it in with some epoxy it's on the bottom so...
there usually about a $100 each side around here, $29.99 at pick-n-pull
last time i bought from butler i needed a mirror they had one listed for like $225 or something like that I called them up gave them the item number and asked whats the best price? and the guy took a $100 off and free...
not unless you happened to have some kind of warranty that maybe just ended like very recently, sometimes,,,,,,,,if you were extremely lucky
but being it is a 18 and 80k, pretty sure that's a hard no
I do not have rain sense on any of mine, but it seems like it would be normal so you are not surprised should the wipers kick on or if you were outside the vehicle with it running and just happened to be grabbing a leaf off of the window or something and get attacked by a wiper blade lol
these rental company's are well aware of what people do with there vehicles, if you bring it back with a dent and your insurance covered it while you were driving it, then it just goes thru the claim's process like normal, you pay your deductible and everyone has a nice day, the particulars of...
for me it's like do I buy insurance for every package I ship? no I do not because the risk of the package getting damaged is extremely low, I do for high value things but not every single thing getting nickel and dimmed along the way no way. Insurance for a rental is insane, when in most...
details? what happened, some common sense has to be applied in any given situation
if you are just going to tow something from A~B and you are doing it right and not trying to do some shifty crap, the risk is relatively LOW
their litigation if you happened to get in a accident (non-injury) and...
the pictured vehicle by the OP DOES NOT HAVE A OEM OIL COOLER
it's real easy to see that. now if someone altered it from stock, that is unknown, sometimes people delete the oil cooler and use a block off plate because the lines are prone to leaking and it's a lot cheaper to delete than replace.
multiple times every time I get behind the wheel
vehicle runs great, but extreme use requires a more severe maintenance schedule.
I also inspect it often and am therefore pretty sure when I do get on it that it's not going to pop a hose or break a belt or do something dramatic.
I should also...
I would suggest recording a video with your phone and upload it to youtube and then post a link here and we can help you narrow it down hopefully. probably best to invest in a $5 stethoscope to find it rather than just throwing parts at it.
make the video longer than a couple seconds..... so...
probably, almost all of them are I only saw 1 rwd when I was shopping for mine and when I test drove it there was something wrong with the transmission I think the torque converter was jacked up, it drove but as soon as you let off the pedal it would slow to a crawl, wouldn't coast at all.
those are the parts but those same parts are a lot less on Rockauto, plus you get 5% off with a code that is listed on the forum all the time, which sort of helps with any taxes.
