I am a 30yo European man without a driver's license.

I've lived in a capital city for most of my life where not having one is rather normal, since there's superb public transport and extremely expensive parking. However, circumstances have led me to move to a small town in the countryside, and I am currently FUCKED. I'll be getting my license the moment I can, but how do I begin to cultivate an interest in cars? I've never found them particularly interesting, but I do have the ability to get autistically obsessed with shit like this, as I've done it with computers and guns before.

So what do I do? Hang out with car guys and kick tires? Begin to lurk /o/? I wanna be one of you. One with you.

I got my license at 16 and 1 day. I was mad the registry was closed on my actual birthday otherwise I would have went then. Have driven nearly every day since then. Am 44. I guess buy a Toyota or something like most people who don't like cars drive.

I own a 2010 Accord. It feels like every 2 years I have to get both rear brakes replaced for something. Is this generation of accord cursed? I hear the rear brake on the driver side making a grinding noise and think I'll ignore it.

Mine aren't replaced just for stop and go use though, the brakes either seize, the caliper leaks fluid, etc. They just give up and die.

Vote when and where you want to meet in this thread. If thread 404s, or goes to a second thread, then voting ends and it'll default to an upcoming Saturday at a TBD location.

Just voice preferences for time and place here and we'll quickly iron out the details from there. If there's any interesting spot anyone knows (DFW is boring, I know), then that's fine enough l, open to all suggestions.

is tire rotation really necesarry or just a meme?

my truck seems to wear the front tires twice as fast as the rears despite being rwd. is it bad to just let it wear out the fronts completely and buy 2 new ones instead of rotating them and having to buy 4 at the same time?
>>
>>27507476
if it's awd or 4wd the minute difference in tire size on each side is apparently enough to stress the diff/driveline components if say you need to replace a worn tire with an unused spare, which is apparently why 5 wheel rotations are a thing. aside from just keeping the spare in usable condition instead of dry rotting.
also a good excuse to check other stuff like brakes while you're at it too.
>>
>>27507476
stop breaking so much
>>
>>27507476
It makes sense if you’re actually removing the tyre from the wheel and swapping them diagonally so camber wear is evened out and steer tyres become rear drive tyres.
>>
>>27507518
It actually is 4wd but I always have it on 2wd mode since I never really off road
>>
>>27507476
Never pay for a tire rotation, they rotate every time you drive.

This is sweet, why does it have to be a hyundai

Why can't the CR-V and RAV4 just have straight fucking lines

Dude finally came over for the new hood latch!!!!

Man the inside of that engine bay, reminds me that Florida cars are so much better than salty winter cars, but that dude lives right on an inlet and the ocean and you can see the odd salt spray rust spots. Still nowhere close to upper Midwest cars when it comes to rust, and it’s in different spots rather than rusting out everything on the underside of the car.

How can a 31 year old ball joint with 225,000 miles still be good? I wish they still made parts to this quality standard.

Hello bros it's the anon with the 99 civic si again. I finally replaced the timing belt, but now my car sounds different and I think it's misfiring. originally it was making a scrape-like ticking noise but after some inspection I realized the belt was loose, after tightening that went away. it still makes strange noises though and the engine behaves differently. whenever I rev up and then take my foot off the gas, the revs fall down but the ECU shoots them back up temporarily for some reason. it also sounds different and sometimes it makes noises towards the lower righthand side of the car, near the exhaust.
am I correct that it's just a poorly primed timing belt?
i need my car fixed asap so honestly I might just take it to a shop, does anyone know how much a valve adjustment typically costs? online says less than $300 but I know some shade tree guys who might be able to do it cheaper.

video of misfiring:

Engines will usually still run and crank with 1-2 teeth off. They just wont run well. If it drives fine though youre probably ok but it doesnt hurt to double check the timing.
Also doesnt hurt to check your ignition timing
>>
>>27505087
I've been told that with fuel injected engines it's all or nothing. the misfire sounds like a loud clunk under the car every once in a while. it made similar sounds before but they came from the transmission.
Could also just be bumpy road and shitty old suspension, idk.
