Hey is it normal for washer fluid to freeze? I thought it had some stuff in it to stop from freezing. There's some stuff on the windshield I want to get off.
[QUOTE=>VLN<;39640992]That is bullshit.
I believe that there was an accident, but no way in hell is that car totaled. Just replace the front right end and it looks like it would be good as new. Stupid reality show, I thought Richard and Aaron didn't do that stupid crap.

[QUOTE=Glitch360;39643429]My driver's side lock doesn't work in the cold sometimes. Doesn't take that much to mess it up either, could be like 40 degrees outside and it could lock up[/QUOTE]
This happened to me too, then the next winter the electric lock for my drivers side stopped working all together. Manual locks 4 lyfe

Holy shit, I can apparently get an insurance for $668 on a 1,2L 5-door comfortline with 105hp. And I thought the insurance for the Prelude was expensive...
After seeing Top Gears episode on the GT86 and BRZ i suddenly have the feeling of buying a foreign car. I've never had this feeling before
Holy shit. I looked up the insurance on the Honda Prelude again, and company 1 wanted $6776 a year, and company 2 wanted about $1080 pr. year. (The car costs about $6835)
killing turbo for spool has never been so sexy

Mine is the 60bhp model. Doesn't the 105 have a turbo?
[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;39643474]Hey is it normal for washer fluid to freeze? I thought it had some stuff in it to stop from freezing. There's some stuff on the windshield I want to get off.[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure there is summer and winter mixture.
[QUOTE=tommyc225;39644524]Mine is the 60bhp model. Doesn't the 105 have a turbo?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, it could possibly have. With the 60hp (5-door trendline), the cheapest company varies between $642 and $2030. $642 for just covering the damage that you do to other people cars (which is required by law), and $2030 for the full-on thing, even legal help and whatever luggage you have in your car if it gets stolen or something.

Um, you are supposed to use winter mixture that is good down to -20.
I wouldn't be surprised if you cracked the plastic container, or worse. Depending on how much it was filled.

I'd love to donate the rest of the $25 to hear the rest of this story, but I can't even afford lunch for myself for tomorrow at work :I

Mine has frozen like 3 times this winter because I had mixture that could handlle ~-10c in for a while
Now it's filled with one that should be good for -20c, but it's been only about -2c to -7c out now
My windshield washer is -45C all year long. :v:
It was -41C a few times this winter. Good thing my doors unlock with my remote instead of my key too.
my back doors don't unlock in the cold.
I've never experienced cold weather
Why do 4wd nissans have to be so rare, I'd love a p10 4wd primera

But, as with Mini Coopers, he can fit into the spots no-one else can.
Wait...
[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;39643474]Hey is it normal for washer fluid to freeze? I thought it had some stuff in it to stop from freezing. There's some stuff on the windshield I want to get off.[/QUOTE]Yep. As others have said, there are summer and winter mixtures. So many people come into our shop at the beginning of winter bitching about how their washer fluid froze. If you wanted to, you could try putting some rubbing alcohol in your reservoir :v:
Pour some de-icer into the reservoir.
Which stereo looks better?

I was originally looking at the Alpine since it looks less flashy and Alpine has an Android app, though the Pioneer looks like it has a better screen. Any opinions?
IMO Alpine has a better quality than pioneer, and from experience too.
Pioneer do have "better" screens / more option for visualisations than alpine, but from what I had over the years and what friends had over the years, I'd go with alpine.
Also, my operations manager called and said some customer put in a complaint that I put transmission fluid in his brake fluid :v:
Luckily my manager knew it was bullshit and said "no fuckin way (my name) did that"
Whoever donated the $50, thats very grateful of you. As are the others who donated.
I have another story for you guys. This one is one of justice, and luck. It also happened last month.
While preforming normal patrol, running plates in the Walmart parking lot (the only 24-hour one around my county) we spot a vehicle in the back of the lot. Running. One occupant. We run the plate and it comes back fine, however, the RO (registered owner) does not. The RO comes back as a WANT out of a neighboring city for a gas drive off.
So we preform a stop on the vehicle, and pull the one female occupant out (for you internet fools, she was a 2/10) and question. The woman was not the RO, however she did have a revoked license and was in the drivers seat - a violation. With that violation in hand, we were going to tow the vehicle. When you tow a vehicle you have to inventory all its contents (aka - a lazymans search of a vehicle not needing a warrant.)
Before we start going through her vehicle, she spills some information regarding the RO and how the RO was inside the walmart shopping. We call for back up. Turns out, in my city, when you call for backup, you get like 4 extra squads.
We set up a perimeter and start sweeping the store. While we had officers doing that, we got the RO's information, and to our surprise, she was wanted for auto theft .... from the walmart parking lot... on christmas.
While all this was going on with her and shit, the other officers found the RO in the store and hooked her up. She was a clear-cut tag and bag. Straight to jail.
This girl that we had in our backseat was the most nervous wreck you've ever seen. Unfortunately, we couldnt do anything more with her other than inventory the car (which we did - nothing but trash in it) and tag and release (ticket and release). The ticketing process takes all of 3 minutes to do. Insert information via DL #, enter the citation, and print. Well, it was my night to be shitty I guess.
The fucking printer jammed. After saying a few expletives on camera, messing around with the printer, and fixing it - the girl got her now 4' -long ticket. Sorry. Not sorry. Not only that, but the printer was running low on ink so it was all faded and shit too.
In summery,
We ran a plate.
Turned into one going to jail for auto theft and gas drive-off
and the other being ticked for driving on revoked.
Oh, and fuck mobile printers.
