Chosen Solution The engine vibrates when I accelerate. When I change gears, the engine moves a lot. @rjasonford not quite convinced that this is caused by the motor mounts. I attached the Engine Removal part of the SM with this answer. That manual shows the mounts and how to pull the engine to replace those. Not an easy job.I would suggest that you check the motor and transmission mounts first. Also, rule out engine performance issues (fuel delivery, emission control etc....

Chosen Solution My running jacket has a big black stain on the sleeve from where it got caught in my gears on a bike trip (it slipped out of my pannier). I tried dish soap at first, which made no difference. I can’t describe if it’s chain lube or grease or dirt (probably some combination); you know when you clean your chain/bike & it’s all black & grimy? It’s like that....

Chosen Solution So, my iMac is finally working but there is one more thing. I replaced the SSD and there is no thermal sensor. These sensors are really expensive and my iMac is running like a G3 because of kernel_task of course. Is there a fix that makes the kernel_task think that the thermals are fine regarding the SSD? Sorry not really. Technically it’s not a bug it’s by design! The system needs thermal sensors to control its cooling....

Chosen Solution I own a Sony Xperia E4g. It is rooted, the boot loader is unlocked and I’ve recently started experimenting with flashing custom ROM’s and other things related to that. One morning I noticed my phone had no network coverage/signal and wasn’t detecting my sim card. The setting that provides information about the phone, where my IMEI number was, is now a blank space. How do I recover or enable the IMEI number so my phone has network/signal coverage and can identify my sim card again?...

Chosen Solution I am replacing the battery in my S7 and about to reassemble but I noticed the ifixit repair kit doesn’t come with all the same adhesive which was on the phone originally. The kit only came with the adhesive for around the edge of the back but not the adhesive that was on speaker assembly or above the camera. How important is that adhesive and should I find a way to replace it?...

Chosen Solution Hello, I am thinking of replacing my battery with a replacement battery that iFixit sells. How long will it hold a charge? Will it be similar to original battery when the Macbook Pro was new? In other words, are these batteries on par with OEM? Thanks, – Carlos The battery from iFixit should hold a charge for a relatively the same amount to time as the one that originally came with the machine....

Chosen Solution Hello everyone, I am new in the forum but I have already used the website to fix (or tried to) some devices. I would like to ask some help for my old laptop Asus F52Q (which apparently does not appear in the list of devices). When powered up, the laptop makes two mild bip in sequence and than does not progress. The LEDs are on, the fan starts after a while, but the laptop does not continue to boot; sometimes it remains on, some others it closes by itself....

Chosen Solution I wanted to replace the home button because the button was bad but the Touch ID was good. After I put everything together, I saw black shadows on the top of the screen, so I wanted to remove the screen again and then see what was wrong.

Chosen Solution This heated up until the point of melting the HDMI port so I have some video issues, but I don’t need that addressed right now, I just need to do some thing about the heat. you could try something like this and set the fan speed you want, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191959658526 @nytryder26 the issue is going to be that even if you install a fan, your airflow is just not there....

Chosen Solution I have a Dell inspirion Laptop. I opened the case to change the 500 gig HHD and replace with a 1 TB Hybrid Drive. To do so required the removal of the keyboard ribbon. When I slipped my finger nail under the top bar of the connecter it simply shattered, I suppose from the years of being exposed to heat. I asked Dell if they could order the connector for me and I would resolder to MB....

Chosen Solution How to use earphone type c on samsung galaxy a11? Hi, You may be able to plug the USB-C earphones into the USB-C port on the phone. I’m not sure if your model allows audio through the USB-C port or not as the user manual doesn’t show all the available settings. Go to the Settings > Developer Options > Media > Disable USB audio routing and check that it is NOT enabled....

Chosen Solution Hi. I was replacing the HDD for an SSD, following the instructions on here, but when I put the screen back together after testing (which went fine), I get the whole right half of the screen black. It fades out, not a solid line down the middle where it’s fine then it isn’t, but more a smearing effect. So I removed the screen again to check whether maybe I didn’t connect one or both of the two screen cables correctly, but they were fine and disconnecting/reconnecting didn’t make any difference....

Chosen Solution I removed the 2 screws but something else is holding it in place.. Any ideas what it might be??? It even pulls at the grill for some reason. Thanks @bratsypatsy041 post some pictures of what screws you removed from where. That way we can see what you see. Use this guide Adding images to an existing question for that. I’ve replaced plenty of bulbs as well as the complete assembly from my Jeep by following this: REMOVAL (1) Remove jack screw attaching top of headlamp to headlamp mounting module (Fig....

Chosen Solution So, I have a iPhone 6 Plus but recently discovered when I use my apple headphones it sounds wavy and distorted. When I try the headphones on multiple other devices (iPhone 4, iPhone 6S Plus, S9+ etc) they work fine just not in my phone. When connecting it to my surround setup through AUX and Bluetooth it sounds fine. Would it most likely need a new charging port or is it something else?...
