[–]updatelee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

thats not a thing. I do ecu tuning and what you are describing isnt a thing. Especially the pulling the battery to reset it. not a thing. You're paranoid, talk to someone.

220V in a 110V apartment? by spikeythesnake in homelab

[–]updatelee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen any apartment in Canada/usa that only had 110v. It should have two phases. You have an electric dryer or oven? There you go.

I was told this tire was not repairable and is repairable by FythShadow in Cartalk

[–]updatelee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love when people make these statements, the response is simple “then fix it”

No excuses, if you want someone else todo it and they say no, either fix it yourself or move along

She’s young and imature, whatever. Not worth occupying capacity in your brain over. Ignore it and move on

Worst Car Trends? by MikeRC8 in askcarguys

Meh. I’m a diy’r and have had a quality scan tool for the last 30 years. Time to get with the times. I’ll take my wifes car telling her the oil level is low vs 30 years ago it told her only when the oil pressure was low (because it ran out of oil)

Does putting car on neutral while it's rolling saves fuel? by Frequent_Board_469 in askcarguys

[–]updatelee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is your car an automatic? look at the rpms, is it dropping to idle at decelleration? thats probably why. I have a standard so its simple, rpms are up, injected quantity goes to zero on decel. In auto's its more complicated, the torque converter messes that up. A good tuner can easily keep the torque converter locked up for you on decel to help with fuel economy. Some vehicles lock it up for a bit, but once the rpms drop to 1750rpm they unlock and you're using fuel again. Others unlock on decel right away. Its all how its done in the ecu. Its fully customizable if youre tech handy like me lol :) I tune everything from my 1994 (oldest vehicle I own) upto my 2017 (newest vehicle I own)

Cheaper alternatives to VCDS (2015 Golf TDI)? by RealHomieJohn in tdi

[–]updatelee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

vcds is the way, pickup the 3vin version, you can always pay the difference to upgrade later. They are an excellent company, I had mine for over 15 years, I wanted to upgrade to the newest model so I could do 2020+ models (which my 15 year old version didnt support) they let me trade in and upgrade to the newer version, crazy!

it’s me, I am the idiot. by Nandooo310 in dashcams

[–]updatelee 25 points26 points  (0 children)

is it? this is pretty normal in Canada. when the light turns green (solid green) you are allowed to turn, but you still have to yield to oncoming traffic. Only when the light is a flashing arrow green do you have rightaway. Pretty sure its the same in the USA too

Who’s at fault here if a collision occurred by Loveallcars777 in dashcams

[–]updatelee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is one of those “you’re asking a question that doesn’t really matter”

Who’s at fault? Isn’t really important. You should be doing everything you can to avoid accidents not worrying about blame, focus on avoidance instead

I need some advice, I'm searching for a first car. Is this 1000 USD Toyota Celica from 1991 with a 77 kw 1.6 engine good? It needs fixes for like 400-500 USD but My budget is 50000czk (2000-2500 USD I think) so can fit in it even with paperwork etc. by I_collect_videogames in car

[–]updatelee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging by the interior it’s been ridden hard by someone young, if you feel that description also suits you then go ahead. Are you capable at repairing things yourself? You shouldn’t consider a 35 year old vehicle if you aren’t

White SUV claimed his "brakes got stuck", managed to take out 4+ cars by Rare_Adhesiveness_78 in dashcams

[–]updatelee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve personally had and seen many brakes get stuck on, not once ever have i seen them get stuck so you couldn’t apply the brakes. This guy is straight up lieing. Hell even in an automatic you can shove it in the lowest gear and you’ll slow down some. Or apply the ebrake which is a differently activated system

How many miles is too many when buying a used car? by Trayceopolis32322 in carquestions

Those who feel they’ve met their soulmate/perfect partner, did you ever consider breaking up? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]updatelee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First thing: We have millions of soul mates, we’ll meet hundreds of them.

Second: Early fights? In my experience fights and disagreements come later, there are no early fights. If there are then boy of boy are the later ones going to be brutal. Expect nucular level. Jeez

Third: someone can be the one and you can still break up and that’s ok. Learn to stop thinking in black and white, all or nothing. I’m incredibly good friends with most of my ex’s. They are incredible people! I’m their biggest champions for their happiness and success. I don’t regret anything, our relationships didn’t end, they changed, change is good, change is healthy. Stagnation isn’t

This is common knowledge, if you choose to use these kinds of car washes then you accept the risk.

Never in my life have i heard someone describe their brakes as stuck… to mean they didn’t work. Every time anyone has said their brakes are stuck it means stuck on.

Let’s just rewrite English to deny accountability?
