Subreddit Rules
- Q&A Format, But No "How F--ked/screwed am I?" Questions Allowed: This is a Q&A sub only
- PSAs, Surveys, or How-to posts allowed. All questions must include the year, make, model, and engine. Am I F--ed/Screwed will be deleted immediately and poster banned. Weird car repair stories or showing off something you did belongs in r/Justrolledintotheshop
- intentionally wrong, reckless, dangerous, illegal, unethical or deceptive questions/advice allowed, even if it’s meant as a joke.
- No fake, joke, meme, illegal, malicious, offensive, unsafe, off-topic, or AI posts or comments: This isn't a place to post jokes or ask about illegal modifications. If your post/comment is a joke, a fake answer, AI generated, obviously or intentionally wrong/dangerous or harmful, it will be deleted immediately or poster banned. Sub readers come here for helpful answers, not jokes.
- Be Courteous and Professional And Keep Comments On Topic: Keep the posts and comments courteous, professional, friendly, and above all, civil. Being rude isn't helpful to anybody.
- Those who demonstrate they cannot follow these simple rules may have their posts deleted and may be banned.
- It's okay to ask for a second opinion, but don’t assume a shop is trying to "rip you off."
- One Incident Per Thread and Post Only One Time: Only one vehicle/problem/incident per thread, and only post once. If you didn't get an answer the first time, or you don't like the answer you got don’t repost the same question again. If you have an update to your post, add it to the comments section of your original post.
- No Tire/Wheel, Car buying or selling Q's, audio, dashcam, insurance, legal/ suing a shop posts.
- tire/wheel questions. Those belong in r/TireQuestions. Car buying/selling Q's belong in r/UsedCars or r/whatcarshouldibuy. Audio questions belong in r/CarAV. Dashcam Q's belong in r/dashcam. Showing off w/out a question goes in r/justrolledintotheshop. Legal/insurance questions go in r/legaladvice or r/insurance. Title, salvage, body work, paint go in separate subs.
- No Spam/Improper Linking/Self Promotion: Linking to outside content is allowed only if it's germane to the O.P.'s question or the current discussion. Posting unasked-for how-to or PSA stories or videos is considered spam. Absolutely no app/AI/Software promotion, free or otherwise. Posting funny/weird videos or stories instead of a question is not allowed. Posting a joke, joke images, videos, memes, or promotional links is not allowed. Spamming the sub is strictly prohibited and can result in an instant ban.
- No Body Work, frame, rust, insurance adjuster, or detailing Questions Allowed On This Sub
- accident or body work questions (paint, dents, dings, rust, or accident related damages, interior, etc.). Post those Q's in a bodywork sub. NOTE: NONE of the bodywork subs will give repair quotes. Take the car to a qualified body shop for an estimate. If you have insurance questions about your accident, please ask in r/insurance
- Year, make, model, engine required on all posts: Every vehicle is different. Every engine is different. If you're asking for help, you must include the year, make, model and engine, especially if you're dealing with an electrical issue. If you don't know which engine is in your vehicle, at least post the year, make, model and the 8th digit of your VIN
- Substandard Images : We're glad to help, but you have to do your part by providing clear, sharp, well-lit images. If you're asking about the condition of spark plugs, your images must of the firing end of the plug, close up, in focus and well lit or it will be deleted. Posts with distant,, blurry, poorly lit images will be deleted. This is especially important if you're seeking advice on spark plugs, brake rotors, electrical connectors, etc., where image clarity is critical to helping you.
