Teach us the ways, oh wise one!
Im honestly timid about turning off the traction on mine. Id probably wrap it around a pole even trying to do donuts in the open parking lot hahah
Im also apprehensive with a lot about this car as its my first ive actually loved. Driving a Chevy Cobalt the last 12 years hasnt let me experience much about cars lmao
But today [yesterday] I redid the some engine harness wiring that a squirrel decided to enjoy. It seemed his favorite was the ABS/traction control wire (green/black), completely severing it and my wiper hose on the driver side. Also chewed up a few other spots in the same area but nothing some tape couldnt cover.
Everything except my LED side marker is back in order without spending more than a $30 for a portable solder gun I was wanting for some time now. Dealer wanted $900 for the harness repair... WTF lol
Got a replacement side marker ready for installation as well. Thatll be simple enough to pop out, I just need to get a few of the gray clips that hold them since a few were too brittle already. Having a few on hand will keep it more secure.
I even went out and got some rodent repellent in the form of Apple Cider Vinegar with Honey and Cayenne Peppers. So tomorrow I'm gonna soak a rag in it and wipe it under the area he probably sneaks in at, then drop it in the engine bay area he decided to nest. Theres no moving parts near there so it can stay for a while to keep it out (hopefully!)
