Not sure what to do at this point, am I supposed to fill out the form a second time.. we didn't realize how good we had it when motorking was around

A little shocked they haven't responded yet. I'm guessing the debate is it sets a precedent to help everyone who was affected. Hopefully they're not just ignoring it..

Will update the thread when I hear back. Filled out the form on Monday

Aww man. The 6 pack I bought in April 2023 from RA says HF4477 on them....

I went to a Japanese language school on Saturdays for 6 years as a kid and it never sunk in Google translate:

You're right, it's the same engine from 2016-2022. Not sure why the #'s are much better. Only way to confirm is to do what twX's suggested for an entire OCI.

Will sleep better tonight, thanks.

There was enough mud that one of the wheel well covers was coming off.. It was a touchless automatic car wash but not like one I've ever been to before. The pressure was very high and I drove extra slow at the beginning when it does the undercarriage / wheel wash so you might be right.

I spent the last few days at a cabin which required a little bit of off road. The wheels had mud which threw off the balance so I went for a car wash yesterday evening. 10 minutes after the wash, the parking brake warning lights turned on. It went into some kind of limp mode because the car...

For Americans (and those Canadians close to border towns), this is a great website for used: lkqonline.com I see some with 40k miles if I got OP's model right https://lkqonline.com/2008-chevrolet-suburban-1500-series-spare-wheel-carrier/-hNKnnjncKKO/-i~353467513

I changed the HR-V's as it was used too many times / too many miles. Ended up going for maxxis instead of OE because it was cheaper than the dealer https://shop.maxxis.com/products/compact-spare-tire

Smells kind of sweet. The ethanol firestarters I use have that sulphur smell. They had to be vacuumed sealed because it was so bad.

I've been trying it out for the last few months as it sounds better than breathing in methanol. The only crappy thing about it is the heater has to be on or else it leaves a film on the windshield. Guessing the ethanol content is too low. It also sucks at washing off bugs/dirt/salt.

Port injected. Not sure how much truth there is but I've read this engine gets higher horsepower on a dyno when premium is used. There are lots of testimonials online saying the engine is smoother. I felt the same way after a few tanks so the additional cost is negligible compared to a more...

I think so but it'll be at the end of an OCI as I'm kind of worried about seal compatibility - especially at the higher concentrations. Chevron referred to these numbers as "excellent" compared to competitor products but to transfer the statement to an automobile is at my own risk.
