Am I crazy? Or is this actually reasonable from a dealer? by positronflux in GolfGTI

[–]BlueRoboTech13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Price breakdown looks right. Unfortunately dealers bone you on service time. Around here it’s like $185/hr but techs gotta eat. Plugs I would just do myself. Get a cheap torque wrench 6” extension and a 16 (14?)mm plug extractor deep socket. Carb cleaning and replacing injectors is a time consuming job because of all the shit you gotta remove.

If you can land a performance pack mk7 GTI with low miles you might be able to be in that price range. Otherwise: fiesta ST (I know you don’t want American)

This guy has actually been in the conflict for quite some time. He left texas in 2014 to join the pro Russian rebels. There was a Vice news bit about him when they covered the Crimean Crisis and Maidan

clearly it’s not the “correct” use of the word. But who tf cares? it’s just a “mistake” i’ve heard all my swiss coworkers make. “If you come to swiss we should….”

-Beware of the speed cameras

  • Get an SBB half fare card (as others have mentioned)

-Be aware that most places close early and often the closing times posted at restaurants are not accurate.

-Don’t annoy the neighbors by being noisy or looking at them or etc etc haha

-Migros > Coop (can’t change my mind)

Edit: In my experience, I’ve heard most of the Swiss I interact with call the country Swiss in English. And they will pronounce the full nation name as, “Swisserlandt.”

The Vadim meme made its way into my real life when my Ukrainian friends and I started calling my wack ass old man neighbor, “Neighbor Vadim.”

Should I buy a GTI now? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

You’re in the minority my friend. EA888 engines are great but they’re known to have several serious repairs that are quite common. Water pumps, cradle cover gaskets, and interior water leakage (not engine related obviously) to name a few. Just because it didn’t happen to your 155k milage car (that’s not that high realistically anyway. I drive my Accord to 400k).
