I hear Flintstones braking is the new trend, I can't get myself to cut the car floor so it's not for me...
What have you done to your car today?

Put rear shocks on my daughter's 8th gen Civic yesterday. One totally blown and one still working, left the car with a case of what she referred to as "the wiggles" over bumps. As an added treat, found/fixed a punctured tire. Started messing with her dead oxidized paint using the trunk as a test platform. Seems like I will be able to make it shine, but too slow by hand.....I see a trip to Harbor Freight for a budget polisher coming.
Freed a stuck parking brake actuator on my accord. Probably a temporary fix and will have a new caliper on standby for it soon. Not a great design.
Cleaned out my old Van, reinstalled the front skid guard I removed a few weeks ago when I replaced the ATF cooling tube. Changed the air filter. Slowly getting ready to say goodbye 🙁

this right here.
I had the Corsa Sport exhaust, a cold air intake and a Blackbear tune on my previous Suburban. Noticeable bump in performance all for less than $2k. Sounded like a Nascar car when you stomped on it. No drone at speed.where do I cut?

Don't piss off the red guy
I replaced the plugs on my daily driver. I gotta say I was scared of doing this mainly due to the fact that the vehicle feels and drives so good that I just didn't think about maintenance other than oil and filters changes mainly because my car reminds me to do so. Over 200K miles later while preparing to do an oil change it dawned on me that I've never replaced the plugs or coils. I got so worried that I started researching on how to remove stuck plugs to prepare myself. Then I decided I will try to remove the coil packs and see if I can loosen the plugs. If it gave me many kind of struggle then I will just bring it to a shop and let them deal with it. Lo and behold the coil packs popped off without a hitch and I was able to loosen all 4 plugs with no issues. That allowed me to go to Auto Zone to get new plugs and the job that had been stressing me out turning out to be a very easy 10-minute job. Here's what the old OEM plugs with 208K miles on them look like from my 2015 Mazda 3 with the 2.5L 4-cyliinder engine.
