mix water and alcohol in spray bottle and spray your windshield, shit will come right off

let your car idle for about a minute to get the cold oil circulating but dont idle it any longer than 1 minute unless you just dont give a fuck and want hot air before you get in

Where the fuck do you live and what car do you have?

>>16458154
Norway here, I make sure to BLAST the windshield with ice cold air for five minutes before parking, get less ice on the window. If the inside of your car ices up you should fill a sock with kitty sand and leave it somewhere to absorb moisture, drag less snow inside.
I always let the car idle until normal rpm or the windows are clear.

LS swap, coilovers, roll cage, brakes(optional since you want to go fast anyway), hoosiers and hit some TRACKDAYS BRO.

depends on how they're designed

Not inherently, the only turbo petrol car I had did shit a turbo but that was a ceramic turbo at 20 years and around 100k miles old.
Even rebuilding a turbo isn't that expensive but the engine can be damaged too by trying to compress bits of broken turbo as mine was.

Depends on the engine they're on and how much boost they're running. Yeah a Volvo or VW turbo gas engine will last forever but it's also a cast iron block with a 3 psi turbo. A 1.4l aluminum block running 20lbs stock and putting out almost 200hp is a little different. You should also keep up on oil changes and not run the cheapest watered down gas you can find. Also let the turbo warm and cool down sufficiently.

All this extra shit to worry about doesn't really make sense for a econobox imo.

No it doesn't. Fuck off.

Nice R8 spotted on campus. The newer model lacks the elegance that the older models had.

Inside and out.

No it's easy. And this is what you do. Leave the car running for 10 minutes. When you're done go to you're radiator and open the cap. Remember the point of this is to remove all the old coolant that was in the radiator and fill up with the new coolant. Always look over and see when you open the radiator cap to see how muh you have to fill up. Good luck anon. Keep us posted

i dont understand why you have to be a shithead

im just looking for some pointers

They're shit

literally one of the least reliable cars you can get, get a honda fit or fiesta st

>>16457278
But muh round headlights

1. Check heater core for flow
Just run water through it.
2. Check heater core valve operation
Check the electrical or whatever connection there is to the heater core. If it does not work, either replace it, rewire it properly or just delete the valve.
3. Check actual coolant flow
Run the engine and keep a hand or thermometer on the coolant pipe running to the heater core.
4. Verify operation of blend door actuator
These can go bad. Make sure that your heater controls are actually moving the blend door properly. If you have coolant flow to the heater core this is more likely to be your problem. If bad, replace the actuator.

t. I don't like Grand Cherokees and this is why.

>>16457119
Unplug the inlet hose from the heater core, put into bucket, turn on jeep, see if water comes through.

You've got a plug in the system, or serious air in it that's not being pushed out of the heater core.

theres usually a heater control valve that controls coolant flow to the heater core but a quick google and i dont think cherokees have that. next option would be blend door not opening properly. feel the heater hose going to and from the firewall once youre at normal operating temp to see if they are warm and the core has flow, if it does then it could be clogged cabin filter or a bad blend door

>>16456990
If it was multiple gauges I would suggest looking at the fuses first.

>>16457088

This

If the fuses check out it could be the entire cluster (I know alot of 05 to 08 chevy's had problems with the cluster itself)

>>16456990
>What could be causing this?
Domestic build quality.

It's beta to drive an automatic in the first place

Dunno about beta but it definitely makes you a bit of a wanker

Keep doing it please because it lightens up the day of anyone seeing you doing this.
Also, if you do this with a Manuel, you will also make your mechanic happy.

Everyone wins
