Weird noise when driving sounds like an occasional scrape when the wheel rotates.

So the noise is coming from this wheel in particular and I noticed the brake rotor had a chip in it but it's on the inside somehow. What do you guys think? Is it gonna explode on me or something?

Slashed tyre or manufacturing defect?

2 month old Hyundai Ioniq 6. 2000 miles on the clock and noticed this split in the outside of the rear tyre today. Going to see if Hyundai will cover replacement cost under warranty as I’ve not hit any potholes or kerbs etc so either it’s a manufacturing defect or someone’s slashed it (but it hasn’t lost any pressure). Also does it definitely need replacing and if so do I need to replace both tyres on the axle? They’re basically brand new which is super annoying and they’re 20’s so not cheap!

Any advice on repairing this cracked dashboard?

It has a vinyl covering and beneath is a brown foam material. I know the cracks have to be filed down to a v-shape before applying any filler. I don't want to replace it,I want to keep it as original as possible,and chances are I won't find one in much better condition.Any advice is appreciated! Thanks

My Australian HSV Grange 😋

Just felt like posting it up a little! It's a 500rwhp 6.2L LS3 powered "luxury" car, weighs in at around 1750kg and goes very good.

Vacuum vs Pressure Bleed

See title.
Strictly based on merit, what is your preference when it comes to bleeding brakes/clutches, and why?

Thanks.

Hit a curb and got a piece of tire chunk removed

I hit a curb at slow speed, managed to drive 100 kilometers or 60 miles back home at speeds of 100km/h or 60mi/h. Is it dangerous to continue using this tire. Do i have to get it replaced.

Car wash scratches

I just got my new car less than a month ago, it has gotten pretty dirty so I went to the new car wash down the street from me that my dad was raving about. Car is absolutely scuffed up with circle scratches everywhere even on the windows :(. Car isn’t even fully clean either. How can I fix this? I’m not confident that my car had a wax on it when I got it so I’m not sure how to start fixing it.

Tire sealant removal question? Am I just screwed?

So, I'm kind of freaking out a little

I was told by a person in my life who knows cars that I should tire sealant to help stop these slow leaks in two of my tires. I did that yesterday afternoon and then felt my balance be wildly off and my steeling wheek vibrate when hitting 60mph.

I have since learned I shouldn't have trusted this advice and should have researched before I did this as now my car is off balance.

My question is is it possible to get the sealant removed at a shop? How much is it typically if so? Or am I just utterly fucked and have to get all new tires that I can't afford.

I understand it was a very stupid thing to do.
