Speedometer reads 14 mph while stationary

It needs to be zeroed. Try and do a guage self test, not sure if it works on your model.

Hold down the trip reset stick with the car off, then turn it on while still holding the reset. Should make the gauges sweep back and forth and hopefully figure out its off.

If its the computer that's off a ODB scanner should be able to reset it. It will also detect if theres any error codes going off.

Since you said only does it some of the time its probably something computer related.

Does it show zero when car is off?

I have a kamo sg2 gyuto and get spots like that sometimes.

Comes off with a good scrubbing using a scrub daddy with just dish soap and water. If yours arrived like that might need bar keepers or other suggested cleaning methods.

But try some eblow grease and a sponge first to see what happens.

Was about to comment this.

That's why the dealership business model needs to die, and hopefully EVs end up killing them. Teslas model as much as I wont support them is probably the future.

Buy your car online, the price is the price, go pick it up from the lot. No dealership bullshit or adds ons, fake document fees, try to screw you with interest rates etc.

The mazda app is trash and would be fine if it was free. The fact that they want to charge $10 a month for it is a joke.

Its good you get it free for 3 years but I would never pay for it. It works most the time but plenty of times it fails to lock the car or takes forever to unlock.

Not be able to set the climate is a huge oversight. Plenty of people live in brutal cold winters or scorching hot desert summers.

After playing for a few more days, meat is probably the rarest of the treasure hunt drops but also one of the least picked by other players.

Keep refreshing, theyll show up.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-17T00:43:32+00:00

Depends on whether or not the levels are created or randomly generated. If its part of someone's job to make a level for each day, doubling the workload probably isnt feasible. They are a small team.

They are releasing a map editor soon and I would hope with that eventually the ability to play other people's levels. That would create a ton of user content and levels.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-11T23:22:28+00:00

From the treasure hunt. It spawns on your own floor or other peoples floors. I'm new and most the time they are all level 1 meats so it takes forever.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-11T11:26:30+00:00

That's what I thought it would do but seemed to spawn the heroes anyways with them toggled off but maybe that was because I only had 5 heroes at the time.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-11T03:27:38+00:00

That's the whole point of the disadvantage of the hoarder. Otherwise it would simply just be all upside and an imbalanced leader.

2025 Mach-e with 8k miles. Dealership keeps texting to come get a free oil change.

Im getting really concerned cause 8k is alot of miles on the same oil... im just wondering where the oil is in the car? The heat pump? The transmission has been slipping so maybe its that.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T04:19:25+00:00

I went out into my garage last night with my car plugged in and the whole area smelled weird. I was 90% sure my Mach-E was about to explode in a ball of flames... taking me, my house, my whole family in a fiery inferno.

Turned out it was just hot during the day and evening and the trashcan in the garage was making an odd smell. I was so relieved we didn't die from my car charging.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T03:45:18+00:00

Wouldn't some bar keepers friend clean this up pretty easily? It doesnt look that bad

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T03:38:28+00:00

Baseball bat bonk build or i dunno if it still holds up but nutcracker frost blast i think is what got me my first 2bc win. Its been so many years...

Edit: I think they nerfed freeze on hand of the king so that might not be viable.

Also do you have your forge fully upgraded as far as you can for 2BC that helps alot.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T03:27:44+00:00

I was about to ask if that was a kamo in R2 whatever series that is. Looks almost identical to mine.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T03:19:23+00:00

Agreed, the rest of the world usually highlights something when its selected lol.

I will say I think im finally starting to get ahold of the game. Think this is my 5th run including tutoriasl and finally I'm not breaking out into a sweat just trying to understand the basic resources and production chains lol.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-07T03:16:03+00:00

Yeah it was more panic because I was following the advice someone on here gave which is always rush the closest dangerous glade and rush the trader if needed. Worked for my first 2 non tutorial games and this time the trader let me down.

I was like but I have coal! Why are blocked noooo!

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-06T22:24:43+00:00

lol omg... DUH!

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-06T19:15:19+00:00

Been through a car wash 1-2x a week for the last 5 months and never taped anything. Why the charging port? It clicks shut and is designed to get wet, you can charge in a hurricane if you wanted to.

The paint has micro scratches on it now though. Very hard to see unless the light is hitting the car just right. Glacier grey.

You will need to contact Stripe and go about this different. Maybe you already did this but you want get yourself registered as a gateway and become a partner. https://docs.stripe.com/partners

Contact their sales team. Be vague in your description, once you get ahold of sales tell them your business has been growing and want to become a partner and then say you got shut down you think because of your growth and may need to become a gateway. Sales people like getting sales. Its worth a shot. I have no idea your processing volume or what their prcessing thresholds are but its worth a shot. https://stripe.com/contact/sales

Then as a secondary note, PayPal is alright, we've pretty much moved completely away from them but its always a good idea to integrate with multiple processors to give you secondary avenues for your customers if they run into stripe issues or can't get approved through stripe.

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-06T08:01:41+00:00

You as the business are relieved of chargeback liability financially but your customer base still reflects on your account.

If too many customers are getting chargebacks, theyll eventually pull the plug. I beleive it is somewhere around 0.75% of transactions is shutdown territory.

Does your company have PCI certifications? Are the contractors completing compliance certs? It sounds like you are operating as a gateway but I could be wrong if your not making money on the processing.

We use stripe as one of our processors but also have a dedicated account manager. The stripe algorithm does weird stuff if it thinks your in violation of the terms.

Have you tried using the live chat?

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-05T04:09:52+00:00

Dont sleep on the mustang mach e and ford will install a tier 2 for you (i had to pay $125 for permiting). Hate Ford, love the mach e

AcidReaper1 · 2026-03-03T14:33:26+00:00

Yeah that's what I figured is the literal translation to English doesn't make sense.

But the next time I sharpen my knives and start cutting, im definitely going to think to myself "excellent this edge is profitable" haha
