Tacos in St. Louis area

It's registered, I'm just not displaying the correct one. I've had it that way for years and never get bothered. Must be the Hawaii plates plus not driving like a jackass. That'll change once I move back next year though.

 

You can have them 30 days late in MO with no penalty.

 

Here is the video again

that pink stuff you noticed on my upper radiator hose was dried coolant, it sprung a leak on the other side above the TB cover
its pretty in pink now

 

Is it a leak or just residue around the cap from s little splash or spilage from when they topped it off?

 

its a slow leak, the underside of the hose by the clamp that goes into the engine was all wet plus the fresh puddle under
maybe there is too much pressure in the system but i wouldn't know how to check on that

dealer mechanic told me it was just the hose and quoted me a price to have it replaced and i said wow that is rich
$280 parts/labor for an upper radiator hose
does that sound a bit high? i think it does, i can change it myself not too difficult just have to wait on some parts and keep an eye on the level

 

280 given the amount of labor involved and parts isnt terrible from a dealer, but that's way too much to pay for an upper radiator hose job that You can do that yourself like you said pretty easily. Just check out YouTube and take your time.

 

has anybody done this type of equipment

i priced a hose from Camelback at $22 and a gallon of the red coolant for 35 on Amazon
where in the hell do they get an additional $200 ???
the job cannot possibly take 90 minutes to do!!

 

Markup on parts and labor by the book

 

$200 labor an hour lol. I know bommarito is that.

 

Don’t forget hour minimum lol

 

i also had the dealer parts dept quote me a price on all new wheel nuts

$400
$16 each!

i had the rear ones powdercoated for $1 each
am going to try some eastwood chassis black paint on the front for durability
the powder coat ones not durable, already scraped when i put the wheels back on

 

No way they're that high....

 

Are they made from titanium?

 

alloy nuts i think and black not chrome like the 2oo1-2oo4 models I think are with the 16s
camelback has them for about $7 each
local dealers milk it hard here

 

Who here has the anytime front and rear camera ??? I know @Cav_BluTRD has one, but he got it from EU. Wondering if i can get one ordered and installed before ATR. That skeeeewp is rough to see over.

 

I have one. Car solutions is the best one, by far

You can also attach a GoPro to somehwere and view it live with the app. Poor mans camera but also gets you lots more angles

 

I KNEW penguins were camera hungry! Always getting the attention lol

 

Couple of old encyclopedias stacked in the drivers seat would be cheaper.
