  • A rodent got into my 2016 Camaro 2SS and destroyed it... Rodents suck, I now know that, but today I show you what happened and key areas and how to access those areas to make sure they didn’t make your car their new forever home.

    I've been there before. And I am sorry for your rodent nightmares.
    My Grandma passed away over Covid lock down. Her car sat outside in Florida for over a year before I could get it shipped to Kansas City.
    And between the mice and squirrels, the car was almost totaled. What a nightmare. So many hours replacing insulation and wires. And the clean-up was almost too much.
    I pray that's all you have to deal with.
    Best of luck. And we are glad to see you are back in action and healthy again.

    Had that happen in my first Camaro, they got in and were living under the center console with a nest made from carpet fibers. When I bought my LT1, first thing I did was put steel netting in the air conditioning intake, and on the side panels under the cowl.

    Thanks for sharing. Similar thing happened to my 2017 SS. Found rat piss on the intake manifold and noticed some of the silver heat shielding had been chewed up. Fortunately I caught it before any wiring damage could be done. That rat is no longer with us either. And I consistently put traps under the hood if it's going to sit for a while. We do own cats - and that has always helped with rodents around our home. Will be using the dryer sheets tip as well.

    I had this happen to me about a year ago. I still to this day never found the body. Even took it to a dealer and had them go all over it cameras and shit. Took about 4 to 5 months for the smell to finally go away. I tore the damn thing apart and never found anything

    I try to keep my garage doors closed most of the time especially after chipmunks came in to eat bird seed kept there. I’m surprised all that food you have stored in your garage hasn’t been eaten also. Honda makes special wire tape that rodents won’t eat. I learned that on another channel.

    I work at a dealership. Dryer sheets or peppermint oil don't work. I see vehicles with about 10 dryer sheets under the hood with rodent damage. Even with those flashing led and buzzer, gizmos don't work.

      I usually recommend customers when I replace the A/C box to add chicken wire fence material to the inlet to block future rodent issues.

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  13 днів тому +3

      Think it depends on the type of rodent. I know many people have had success with both.

    Yep I've had 1 huge rat in my engine bay. Took a pic of him one night. Pooped everywhere. Luckily didn't chew anything. He still comes back from time to time. Luckily I daily mine so it didn't make a nest. Mostly wanted to stay warm during the winter on top of my LT1. Put a rat trap under but unfortunately got a chipmunk so I stopped using it. I don't have e85 so they aren't as interested. I bet they like the smell of yours more.

      @@Lethalgarage actually you did not get into removing the glovebox to replace the box; your vlog covered dropping the glovebox to get to the cabin air filter; I’m trying to replace the glovebox; I think it’s just a few bolts to remove to gain access to the silver hinges that hold the glovebox in place.

      @Lethalgarage  13 днів тому

      I wouldn’t think a lot. The ones most want that are holding some sort of value are the SS variants. RS 50th is around $17-22k currently in excellent condition at 23k miles.
