Well, if I get stuck I have a neighbor that seems mechanically experienced I can ask any questions to. Replacing the hose doesn't seem complicated if I could gain clearance to it. I have to see where the hoses run through and what they are secured to. I know which hoses they are and where they connect I just have to find where to feed them through. I have to disconnect the power steering line from the reservoir just to have enough space to stick my hand down and twist off the fill cap to add more fluid. Among tools I have at my disposal I have the following:
- Assortment of tools incl wrenches, ratchets and socket bits, locking pliers, needle nose pliers.
- 2x 2 ton trolley jacks
- 2x jack stands
- Quarts of oil and transmission fluid.
I'm going to do an oil change after purchasing a new oil filter. After replacing the leaky hose I'm thinking about flushing the transmission fluid and replacing the old with new fluid.
For the time being I am saving money in case I decide to have it taken in a shop for repairs. There's minor electrical issues I have to have inspected, minor corrosion on battery terminals, some lower rod (support rod?) off the back rotor that's bent, front-right wheel bearing and a hole in the exhaust that needs to be addressed.
You seem to know way more about cars than I do (can't change my own oil, don't know where my transmission fluid or power steering line is) so I think you'll be alright

Almost nothing else this gen looks interesting, just MK8 + SM3DW. After that, just Zelda + Star Fox. Â I've never been this disinterested in a Nintendo platform since... the Virtual Boy really (yes, I remember seeing them in stores but completely ignoring them for the most part).
Played it a bit yesterday or so and the game itself is pretty interesting but I have to say I'm not impressed with the OST so far. I've barely played 30mins or so, so it's too soon to judge but Xenoblades OST was amazing from the start. This feels off imo.
Yeah the library is crazy small, or atleast, there's few games I'm interested in. My library only consists of:
- Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
- Mario Kart 8
- Smash Bros
- Nintendoland (...it's kinda fun!)
- Xenoblade Chronicles X
Eventually I'll grab the inevitable Zelda and perhaps that new FE game that's coming.
As for the 3DS...
 - Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate
... that's all.

Nope, she's from Steins;Gate. Upon quickly googling I don't see anyone in Xenogears that resembles her ;p.
Seems like someone needs to brush up on their Xenogears, Elly.
They don't look remotely similar to me.
Well they both have reddish hair that's for sure, sort of.
Lol well I saw Elly but no resemblance ;p. Also her hair is orange.
Kurisu is well... a brunette in the game and a redhead in the anime.

Yeah well I don't know too much either lol. I guess I'm what you can call mechanically inclined. If I see how something is done I'm usually very good at picking up on it and through practicing honing learned skills. I never get in over my head, I know my limits. I may not be able to repair the car myself. It seems the jack points, the pinch welding on the car is rusted out and crushed under pressure from the jack. Because I can not jack the car up I'm gonna have to take it in to a shop so they can put it on a lift.
I got seven quarts of transmission fluid in and wow what a difference. Car moves in all gears without giving it gas and takes right off when giving it gas. I guess I can rest assured the transmission is in good condition?
Usually if your car doesn't stop and can accelerate and decelerate normally, the transmission is alright. I only know this after suffering numerous problems with old transmissions
Looks like you're in the clear. Good luck with getting a license btw.
I've been trying to clean off my hard drive today, but whenever I delete files, the space used on my drive goes up?
I've had that happen to me because Steam started to download big game updates when it noticed that there was free space. Maybe it's not the same reason for you, but it could be something similar.
