      Kia's I've been told, Hyundai's are or can be a little tricky and a little bit difficult to deal with.... I have a question about a small oil leak. But I have a picture that I need to send you if you do not mind. Can I email it to you? I just want to send a picture of something that I ended up going over if you think that it could have caused an oil leak an oil leak through possibly loosening the oil filter a little bit or possibly something else. Through all the issues that I've had with my car if I personally have not caused, this is the one time where there was an issue in a parking lot, of a concrete barrier being somewhere where it's not supposed to be, also not bolted to the ground or attached to the ground, therefore I did not see it and when I went over it , it obviously made a huge noise as it was scraping the crud out of the front of my car, it's undercarriage etc... And I then had to put my car in reverse to backup. That way ended up getting double the amount of damage. Also, idk anything about it, but I'm curious as to if a parking lot has an issue in their parking lot that ends up causing damage to somebody's car, I wonder if it's something that can be paid for from the company that is on the lot or the property owner itself...do you know? I am aware that if there are potholes in the city on city streets or issues such as that the ends up causing damage to a person's vehicle, then the city will end up reimbursing the car owner. Just not sure about what it means for a parking lot. Anyway the picture if I'm able to show you, I just want to know if you see it, do you feel like that going over what I went over would be enough to cause an oil leak? And if so, would you think that it would come just from the oil filter itself or when other possibilities could there be? If I cannot send it I completely understand. I would still appreciate your thoughts.

    Thanks sir, I was offered a 55watts and 100 watts bulb, can you confirm which is the OEM W number? Would the headlight be damaged if I put more Watts on it? Thanks again

    • @alyoungcuda
      @alyoungcuda  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      55 watts is the standard..of course 100 watts will be brighter and it will be hotter and as for damage, worst case it might melt the insides over time.I looked online at several auto stores and most are 55 watts..100w must be for off road driving...

    I've done this before but I must have snugged the hell out of it putting it back in, because the "handle" on the back of the fixture shattered. Looks like the fixture itself is fine and that it was just kind of a shroud that sat around it. I don't even know what to call the thing to search for a replacement. Any suggestions?
