To fix a flat properly you need to dismount the tire and buff out the inside. Unless you have a tire dismount machine at home, you're probably going to need to go to a tire shop.
To the thread starter for those GM rigs, if one of the sensors is not working you cannot complete the relearn procedure. However, the nice things is that for GM vehicles you can relearn the system without a relearn tool.

What will be the new trend for 2016?
stance is still on the rice babycakes
more stance, and even wider wheels
I dont see it changing from stance in general
it looks like the over the top builds are gaining in popularity over the clean ones now tho
ofc Rocket Bunny style crazy flares are going to be more popular this year too
I fucking want a Challenger Hellcat. I want one and I want it now goddammit.
I want to roll around Florence in some fuckhuge American muscle car. I'd drive it around showing off all goddamn day long and I know my Italian bro's would be jealous as fuck. I don't care if it weighs more than the moon or the fact that it is the size of a small yacht. I want a giant land barge that goes over 300kmh. Fuck European cars (not really we are still far superior in every way), give me that giant car and I am a happy man.

Post your neighbor Chip's midlife crisis-mobile.
>Fuck you Neighbor Chip
The most expensive thing around here (that I know of. Who really knows...) is a mid-range A7.
Don't know if I'd rate my own M5 higher or not. More interesting, sure, but not to Joe Schmoe.
neighbor chip is just getting in touch with himself

I bet that's a v6 too

Weather's getting warmer here in PA, want to give my car a proper wash and wax. What is /o/'s procedure for a good bi-annual waxing? And while we're on the topic, what's the "best" method for the washing itself? What products should I purchase for this?
Picture related (Car isn't this clean now, pic is from November)
Once a year, usually in spring, I'll
Wash several times with warm water and small amount of mild dish soap. Thoroughly rinse each time.
Clay bar vehicle.
Sealant and let dry/cure as per directions.
Clean interior while that's going on.
Wax.
Maybe wax again.
Remove wheels (winter tires), clean them once off the car, and put the cleaned inside and out wheels with summer tires onto the car. You really can get into the inside of the wheel once it's off the car for all the brake dust and dirt.
Everything except...

NEVER EVER EVER USE DISHSOAP
It literally cuts right through your factory paint coatings, how retarded are you?
>>14703729
>clay bar
my nigga
i feel like this is usually a forgotten step
gotta get that dirt out of your wax/sealant coat before you just seal it in
using a clay bar really calms my autism
Do you engine brake?
Yes.
No.
Maybe.

What are /o/'s thoughts on the Buick brand of cars? I know, I know
>GM
But some older LeSabres (91+) look so freaking comfy inside. The seats look so comfy. Anyone here own a Buick (91-2006)?
Bail out.
Friend of mine owns a 98 le sabre and he has let me drive it around at night when they are drunk and it is very comfy. It is actually extreme comfort mobile. It's pretty quick too. Just make sure you get one that's been taken care of. His has 190,000 miles on it.

Case of beer and a shit ton of joints. That's how I do it and my father before me. Don't forget a piss jug. Way of the road.

Well since I'm going to California this will likely happen when I arrive. But I'm not a smoker. So lots of beer will be nice.
My car is infested with roaches,its disgusting.
I wasted 3 raids on this fuckers,but they dobt care any more.. Can someone suggest a way on how to get rid of them?

Remove everything you can from the can and use a powerful vacuum cleaner on everything that is left.

I doubt they're a joke because any Manufacturer that can get away with selling something like this (pic related) for top dollar

Is pretty much taken as seriously as any Auto Manufacturer can be taken because we all know almost no one could get away with selling anything like the F40 especially at that price with that interior and build-quality.
