Thank you. Sold my Bass and Orange amp when I was first married to put food on the table. My son heard the story and bought me a Fender Custom and an amp with all these buttons I can’t figure out. I am no Nick Beggs, but I putter around on it.

The bargains are out there to be had, even in this climate.

Unfortunately they can.

The mini split a/c put me a tad over. Paid a concrete guy for the hole in the floor for the lift, a commercial electrician friend did all the wiring, garage was built in 1967, hired out the drywall. I did the rest. I didn’t pay full price for anything. That was my goal, I only bought it if it...

The black thing on the fridge is a smart light for ambient lighting when I don’t want to light the entire garage, it has a Sonos speaker built into it. All speakers in the garage are Sonos. The black thing on the wall is a urinal. I found the sink on Amazon.

Not yet. A lot of work, blessed to have another car to drive. Going to take me time.

The A7 is a 2016 with a 3.0 ltr Crec motor, so yep chains on the back. Motor is coming out. I have a an engine table and a hoist. I will drop the motor out of the bottom with subframe and trans attached onto the table. Appreciate the note.

Long story short. My Audi A7 has a timing chain rattle, which started at 100,001 miles. I took it to Audi for a diag, since the car did not throw any codes. Audi comes back with $18,000 for a PCV, Motor mounts, and timing chain tensioner. I was shocked. As my wife and I discussed what to do, she...

It works finally. Thank you to @vavet and @jtbinvalrico for all you help, I appreciate it. Time for an adult beverage.

Exactly!! I sent an email to the company I bought it from in China yesterday morning and they were kind enough to send a video. I had it hooked up correctly the first time and swapped the hoses back. I ran each side individually to the highest point and bled the line running into the back of the...

After posting earlier I swapped the hoses in the control center. The yellow circle is representative of the left side when looking straight at the pump and goes to the "T" The Blue is the right. Only one valve with a hose on each side. I believe this is the leveling ****, simply because there...

Maybe the better question is do I hook up the Hoses with the "T" to the high-pressure side?

no

Well good SoCal morning to you all and thank you for the kind words. I have run into a snag. My lift only has one Valve located at the front of the pump unlike the two shown in my owner's manual. Guess how many YouTube videos with in-ground lifts in them have one valve? Zero, Zilch, Nada. I have...

Garage project of 2024 almost complete. I am putting the finishing touches on my lift install, which I ordered from China, via Alibaba. I don't really have a breakdown of all the costs, but hiring a customs broker made it pretty easy. There is a great write up early in the forum, just know the...
