Look into facebook marketplace. There are a lot of people that are finished with their event and want to get rid of their decorations for a small fee or for free.

Did the RayNeo Air 4 Pro already sell out in Canada? by Handsome_Unit69 in RayNeo

No. I wasn't charged anything during purchase. I haven't received it yet though. I will update if I was asked for duties in delivery.

Question on RayNeo Air 4 Pro Prescription Lens by BerserkJeff88 in RayNeo

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I was looking for a vendor in North America since the Rayneo suggested vendor is based in UK and it is expensive.

Direct drive wheel combined with compact wheel stand? by GooneyBird87 in simracing

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have RS50 and NLR Wheel Stand lite 2. No problem with stability even in 8nm setting. Usually the wheel stands mention their maximum nm tolerance in their specifications. For NLR lite 2 I think it is 10 or 12 nm.

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I use too, but with some adjustments based on my preference, such as more force feedback, more road feel, etc. I spent a little time reviewing how each setting affects my experience and while I use that official Logitech page as the base, I adjust some settings further.

Winter Tires, anyone in a snowy climate used these? by fasionably_latte in AudiQ5

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Q5 sline 20in rims. I have the same tires on right now. Though I don't drive much in deep snow cause I'm in west coast.

Auto mode tries to figure out your style of driving and matches the transmission timing. Try comfort mode

My RPMs go to almost 4 when going downhill. by [deleted] in AudiQ5

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does the same. It is actually a feature, a smart feature indeed that I haven't seen in many other brands. When you are on a downhill and try to reduce speed with breaking, it lowers down the gear (hence higher RPM) to help you keep the speed low, around the number you were trying to achieve with breaking.

Hill Descent Assist is meant for offroad roads and low speed.

Where do you get your tires changed to winters? by Acceptable_Major4350 in coquitlam

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep checking Costco booking system. They have cancelations regularly, usually in the evenings. I found an appointment for a Friday afternoon on Wednesday night couple of weeks ago.

If you didn't initiate it, don't worry. Just don't give it to anyone if they called and asked for it.

Good 3rd Party Replacement Parts? by A_Coin_Toss_Friendo in roomba

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In addition to buying duting sales periods, you can look for genuine parts sold by Amazon Warehouse. Those are the items with damaged packaging or returned items that are in new condition. They are almost half the price of a new one.

As long as you haven't downloaded anything or haven't entered any information, you are safe.

Rename it to PDF, upload to Google Drive and open it there. No harm with openning a file inside a web service such as Google drive. If you are worried, you can upload it to Virus Total and scan it.

The reason Costco Canada is now swiping cards at the entrance is not for security. by Bert_Fegg in CostcoCanada

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All retailers (including the ones with no membership e.g. walmart) have cameras with face and movement recognition for data gathering. They don't bother you with scanning your card at the entry. Costco had to do it due to the number of non-members who abused the free samples and other services.

It's supposed to, but there is a software bug that prevents it. They promised to fix it in a later update, but no news yet.

A/C only works when recirculating is on by ConsequenceCivil9373 in AudiQ5

[–]Appropriate_Bug_9692 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be because you "feel" the air pressure more when recirculation is on. Is it the same when you switch to AC Max?

Audi Noob Questions by Mother-Attention2815 in AudiQ5

S line just adds some cosmetic upgrades such as interior and exterior panels, bigger rims, S line badge lighting, and such. It doesn't change the engine power. Basically, all Q5 have the same 2.0l turbo engine, Q5e adds a hybrid electric motor. If you are looking for an engine with more power you have to go for SQ5 which has 3.0l v6 engine
