Hello! question for you? do you have a favorite car lock/unlock chime?
Hello! Answer for you:
That's a very hard opinion for me to form because here cars don't have them, we just trust car owners to be able to tell that the car that made the clunking sound and indicators flash it does when it locks its doors locked its doors. Which is partly why this answer comes to you well over two weeks after your asked me, as I just didn't know what to do with it.
So I could answer that my favorite chime is around 6:38 in this video, which I recommend you don't skip to because the rest of the video is great too...
youtube
...but if that feels like cheating to you, well, I'm out of answers.
So I will just talk horns and chimes some more until you're satisfied.
My mother's Citroën had this seatbelt chime, which I found pretty endearing, but without the peculiarity herein described. (It should start at 11:41, just in case it doesn't for you.)
youtube
My father's Audi had this calm, soothing chime which perfectly suited its soothing comfort, yet always reminded me of something...
2000s Renaults had a talking vehicle computer!
And if that sounds like a very 80s thing, well, you're absolutely right!
Chrysler's Electronic Voice Alert, or EVA, was an option made available in the mid-80s that used the Texas Instruments' LPC Speech Chip you know and love from the Speak & Spell.
youtube
Unfortunately, while that was just a warnings list, many of those were spoken quite frequently, in part due to the vehicles in question being mid-80s Chrysler products, leading to the system swiftly getting on people's nerves, and in the models before a switch to turn it off was included owners resorted to pulling the fuse, which in some cases disabled the fuel gauge. Welp.
But that was not the only system nor first system of its kind: there was, in 1983, the MG Maestro's system.
youtube
If that voice sounds familiar, its voice actress Nicolette McKenzie had starred in John Sichel's Merchant Of Venice. If you're not from that side of Tumblr, she also starred in Horizon: Zero Dawn. A monotonous career path sure doesn't seem to be among her problems.
But this system was not the first either: some '81 to '84 Nissans (or Datsuns, as those were the very years that brand name, created for American shores, was getting phased out) used a Voice Warning system that used an even earlier technology than TI's chip (that's Texas Instrument's LPC speech synthesizing integrated circuits, not the money of trap music pioneer T.I.): a phonograph.
youtube
This wasn't a novel approach either, phonograph-based warning systems being used in late '70s-early '80s appliances and toys, and in-car record players having been a thing even prior!
In fact, to paraphrase Dr. Doofenshmirtz, If I had a nickel for every time I wrote about in-car phonographs, I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?
Although in 1985 Nissan too went electronic for their voice warning system - here's the warnings from those systems over a bad MIDI cover of Thrift Shop.
youtube
And that's without even getting into custom door chimes!
youtube
And boy will I ever get into custom chimes once I get to that section of my Miata Mod Master Mᴉsɥlᴉsʇ (that's "Wishlist" upside down), which by my estimations should be about April 2024. So keep your eyes peeled!

★ - Scott’s first car was a white 1990 Jeep Wrangler. He loved the vehicle but hated the color. It was the cheapest option, and since his mom agreed he could have it if he paid for half, he had to make a choice.
☆ - Ant-Mun’s first car was a red Nissan Maxima, and she can’t remember the year so don’t ask. She loved the color but hated the car. The hand-me-down had no AWD, and where she lives, that’s practically a necessity. Plus the A/C didn’t work half the time. But when one didn’t have to pay for it and could save up for something else, beggars can’t be choosers.

New spark plugs were suggested for a Nissan Maxima.
The spark plugs are worn and have too much gap. The gap is 0.055 inches but should be 0.044 inches.
There needs to be a certain amount of gap between the spark plug and the electrodes. Once they get out of tolerance, usually that means they need to be replaced.

Cadillac-Maxima Low Rider
It was just a routine day with the exception that I took a day off from my duties as a Supervising government bureaucrat. Just relaxing for the day, the one dream experience that stood out started out when I saw images of the government building that was the location of my early years as a government bureaucrat. I saw the building’s exterior foundation was intact, but the interior was undergoing…

the fucked up thing about driving a car from 1996 is even if i had the money to get a replacement at this point i wouldn't because a.) i want electric if i'm going to get a new car and b.) no electric vehicle 1. is japanese therefore has the right internal form factor for short bitches and 2. has the same sedan/sports car hybrid thing the '96 maxima has going on except for the toyota mirai. and fucking lol hydrogen fuel cell cars
#banging on nissan's factory doors yelling HEY MAKE THE MAXIMA ELECTRIC#the hyundai ioniq almost fits but >hyundais not getting hotwired instantly#if i'm buying a new car i would prefer it be my fault if some guy drives it away
