I have a 2019 corvette z06, it made a similar ticking noise in the front wheels when in motion during a turn. Found out it was common issue. Repair was literally to deep clean the mating surfaces of the wheel and hub. I was honestly surprised that it fixed it. Might be worth a shot, I’m not a mechanic by any means, but I was able to do this “fix” on my own at home.

It is also the most common cockroach species in houses, apartments, restaurants, hotels, and other institutions. This is true not only in Pennsylvania but also throughout the United States and in most parts of the civilized world. " Jun 19, 2023 - Penn State Extension. This from a Colorado pest control company: "People say, “We don’t have tarantulas in Colorado!” Well we don’t usually… “Can you please send someone over right away. We have tarantulas in our produce section!” exclaimed the agitated grocery store manager. “And may I speak to someone. It’s urgent. We have frightened customers! One of them is causing a huge scene. We’ve got to do something quickly!” Tom listened to the store manager anxiously described the situation. “I am happy to get right over to your store,” he replied. “However, I highly doubt you have tarantulas. Sometimes, people see wolf spiders, which can actually get fairly large, and think they are tarantulas. Not to worry. I’ll be right over.” Dressed in plain clothes so he wouldn’t further alarm any of the customers, Tom conducted a thorough search of the banana section. Sure enough, he found a tarantula. The poor thing had hitched a very long ride all the way from the much warmer, tropical regions of Central America. He must have been snug and secure traveling such a long distance, nestled between the bananas. Very carefully Tom removed the creature, placed it in a grocery store baggie and carefully brought it in for all the pest control geeks in the office to admire and observe. The tarantula actually didn’t last long, probably due to the effects of such a long journey. We actually we do have mini tarantulas in southeastern Colorado but, as a general rule, we don’t have them in the Denver Metro area.

Some later model BMWs (2020ish M3, M4, M5) have a popping noise like that in the front wheels and the fixes are various. Sometimes it's the hub w/ bearing, sometimes it's the mating surface between the wheel and hub (a friction disc is installed between them) and sometimes it's the lower ball joint. Even using a chassis ear it can be a little tricky to find which one it is because of how noise can travel through metal.

Great video again, I love these videos on special cars and especially that you do the correct way and diagnose and not throw parts at it, that is crazy expensive way to do stuff on these! My take on the popping. Audi (that most of this stuff is from) actually has a TSB on such a noise when turning hard at low speed, it comes from the wheel bearing surface rubbing onto the CV joint. Repair is to either replace both bearing and CV joint OR to grease the surfaces in between and re-tighten. I just think they may have installed just a part in place of the CV joint and now it isn't tight enough. Those CV bolts are specced crazy tight! Have had several audis with that sound including my own (A8L 2008). BTW Got those same brembo brakes (with ceramic discs) on my A8L, they are phenomenal at high speeds!

Anyway we can convince you to do a video on getting a new car? Say you work a job you cannot miss, and your looking for something say under 20k, could you compare getting an older Toyota vs like a mitsubishi mirage or nissan versa brand new? Supposedly the mirage is very reliable and has the 10 year warranty right out of the gate. Thanks!

Imagine deleting AWD for less traction as a preference. AWD is way cooler and handles much better.

It also adds weight, increases the cost of the vehicle, adds mechanical complexity as well as added costs of having to maintain such a complicated drivetrain. I don't understand the need for it in locations that don't have rain, ice, or snow traction issues. Smart owners will generally keep these in heated garages during inclement weather. Seriously, do you want to take a chance on some idiot in a cheap KIA plowing directly into your six figure supercar just because they were high, wanted to do burnouts on icy streets and plowed their cheap Korean iron straight into your precious supercar?

Lamborghini Automobili and Lamborghini Trattori are totally separate companies and have been for a few decades.

Guys: At approx 9:13 to 9:17 in your video as the camera is pulling back from examining the right front suspension, there is what looks like a sort of straightened paper clip hanging straight down in front of a large part of a casting.It might be hooked over the tie rod closest to the block of metal. It is nicely framed by the lower "Y" forks heading away from the wheel. That's the cause of all the issues!! Gotta be. It's not metric.

most Gallardo owners delete them because buying a RWD Gallardo is almost double the price now and the AWD system is known to cause issues and fixing it is obscenely expensive - like the cost of replacing the engine and transmission level of expense. RWD conversions are affordable, and you gain a little bit of power because you eliminated friction losses from removing the axles and driveshaft that go to the front diff. Some even go the distance by removing the front diff entirely also. You're losing 25-30% of your power through parasitic friction losses just driving the front diff vs going RWD only that has 15-17% friction losses. The Huracan has a significantly better and more reliable AWD system than the Gallardo, and people are putting over 2000hp through them without issue other than upgrading the clutch pack.
@slickest1234527 ай бұрын
you do realize Valentino Balboni, the famous Lambo test driver who has shaped the driving experience of every Lambo produced over 40 years, created a special edition of the Gallardo in his preferred spec: RWD. check the forums, plenty of owners say the conversion makes the car feel way more nimble and agile, easier on the clutch, and lighter. All that weight, extra drivetrain resistance, and force going through your steering knuckles isn’t worth the few times AWD actually benefits you.

Wizard. Love your channel. However the way you gently push and pull on the wheels to check for play is quite funny. You need to really put a huge amount of pressure back and forth and up and down to check for play. Even better is to lower the car down on the hoist to about an inch off the ground and put a large angled bar under the tyre and push up on the wheel to simulate the pressure that the suspension is under when loaded up.

Lamborghinis and Ferraris are expensive to repair and maintain. That's the nature of the beast. The people that buy them usually know this unlike a lot of people that buy a Mercedes. The joke is that every Mercedes dealership has smelling salts on hand when a customer sees the bill. "It's $4,000 to replace a water pump???!!!" I have known some people that own Lamborghinis and one thing they agree on is that the critics of them are people that have not only never driven one but probably have never even seen one.
