My tob started making noise at around 121000km, and I bit the bullet and did the job myself. First time I dropped the transmission, and oh boy it was heavy to handle it underneath the car. It took...

That's probably why I couldn't find any post about changing the battery or general care and stuff? I might just need to stick to the original one until they die.

Thank you.

I was looking at tires at Costco and they said they will charge a few bucks extra for tpms. Wasn't too sure if they do it correctly or just another way for them to rip off a few bucks tbh.

That looks really good. Kinda reminds me of some old ferraris(might be wrong), but not that it's a rip off or bootleg. Where did you get it?

I was thinking of a paint brush too since I have one, but just worried about the static electricity it might cause. I'm maybe too cautious?

If you are referring to the click sounds at 0:05 and 0:13, it's the ac compressor.. but that's too obvious. But other than that, I don't notice anything else
