Perhaps some of you enjoy Jalopnik, as I sometimes do. They posted an article [ https://jalopnik.com/best-of-2021-here-are-the-weirdest-unserviceable-car-p-1847293164 ]that went over several ridiculous but real maintenance and repair issues with cars, not including any dsm cars. Made me feel better about some of the long series of steps that I've had to do for seemingly simple operations. I could change the water pump in my dodge truck in about 1/2 hour, including the beer. My DSM took days, and that doesn't count the whiskey drinking I needed afterward. My favorite one in this article was for the small coolant hose for the Toyota MR2 Turbo. Definitely watch the youtube video of the process. Not sure how you might get that engine out without an actually vehicle lift like they used. I haven't been able to watch the one about the Porsche oil pan gasket. Sounds worse than a dsm by far.
Who has a least-favorite fix on their dsm, or other rides for that matter. I was completely entertained a few days back by the multitude of techniques to disassemble the front strut on a 2G.
