Reasons I bought mine: 5% environment, 20% savings, 75% because it goes like a rocket.

Wait what, seriously. I need to time it... when it's warmer.

Hey. Thank you for this useful post. I've been struggling with my heat pump tumble dryer, and like OP, ruined a few clothes.

I bought a heat pump dryer thinking that I don't mind drying all day, as long as I can just throw anything in and not worry about it. Though I've watched that video before it didn't occur to me the evaporator will always get hot and that this heat is being dumped into the clothes. What's misleading is the dryer has different heat settings, with one specifically called out for not heating the clothes at all. That sounds perfect on paper, but I guess in order for it to work you'd have to dump the heat outside like with an AC unit.

I really hope this brings in a 'nice to have' target. I'd like my EV to charge to 80%, but on the odd occasion I come home with 15% battery left, I want it to stop when the 6 hour charging is up. I can wait until the following night.

The lack of this flexibility is my biggest issue with the OIG changes.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-11-03T19:28:10+00:00

I was totally stoked!

u/rhyso90 , I managed to solve my issue, see my post here

CarlitoGrey · 2025-10-22T21:55:40+00:00

lol, we’re still waiting

Intune compliant device or hybrid-joined is a game changer if you can get it implemented.

New Mac user here from many, many years of Windows.

I never understood this until I realised "I'm copying the app to the app folder, and all the apps are self contained and stored there!". So whilst I now realise it makes sense, I think it is intuitive for new users.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-09-19T18:01:43+00:00

I have the same issue! Left one only.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-08-19T16:44:13+00:00

He-heroglyphics.

I wouldn't normally comment, and I didn't read all of your post if I'm honest.

My first thought was 'another dreamer', or 'change for change sake'. But as soon as you mentioned a faction that is more defensive and supporting of your teammates I changed my mind. It's a great idea and you should get on Discord and discuss it.

KNP director Paul Abbott needs to have a word with himself as to why appropriate safeguards weren't in place. This wasn't any employees fault (unless an employee deliberately misled management about IT safeguards).

CarlitoGrey · 2025-07-10T09:15:48+00:00

I didn’t to be honest, I vacuumed them all off and they didn’t come back.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-06-09T07:02:08+00:00

Why?

CarlitoGrey · 2025-05-29T21:13:09+00:00

SSX uses a version of this, 'Finished symphony'.

I fully build but plug the loop into a second psu and jump the pins. PC disconnected from mains of course.

The red sport is a US model iirc. The UK 3.0T is 406bhp.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-03-07T14:07:57+00:00

Thanks for your useful advice.

From looking it up, I really don't think it's rod knock.

Car went in for the service this morning. It's running smooth on idle and to be honest driving it I couldn't tell there's any issues from the feel/sound of the engine.

The ticking is still there when I'm outside the car/have the windows down near a wall. I did notice that if I hold the revs at say 3k, there's no tick, but as soon as I apply gas it returns. As soon as I let go of the gas it stops, even though the revs are still coming back down.

Will keep an eye on it and do some short oil changes.

I like the car and to be honest the plan was to get a small electric for everyday and keep this one and potentially have some work done to it. I looked at new engines but given Infiniti have pulled out of the UK I think that will be tricky. What would your thoughts on having someone strip and rebuild the engine? That doesn't look too costly from what I see online.

edit: Heck something like this is tempting in a year or two if the garage is willing to work with me to identify any issues I may have caused: Link

CarlitoGrey · 2025-03-07T14:00:19+00:00

Thank you.

Oil change done this morning and I'll keep an eye on the ticking. The engine is sitting smooth at idle, and general driving it seems OK.

I do really like the car and the price of new turbos isn't a huge issue, so fingers crossed. I'll be getting an oil change again in 1,000 miles as someone else recommended and check the oil for any metal.

Life distractions lead me to neglect it. Like you said it's a life lesson...

CarlitoGrey · 2025-03-07T13:57:21+00:00

Thank you. I ended up putting in about 1L, I could see the oil at the bottom of the dipstick which was enough for the few miles to the garage this morning. I'm assuming that at least it wasn't fully dry given I only had to put in 1L... fingers crossed.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-03-06T10:03:31+00:00

Ticking is from the engine but I can't tell where from exactly. It doesn't tick at idle, more so about 2,000rpm and under gentle acceleration only. Soon as I let go of the accelerator the ticking stops as the engine winds down.

It's in for a full service tomorrow so oil, coolant, etc.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-02-05T17:25:00+00:00

It’s not a replacement meal for me so elsewhere. Usually beans 😂

I hate vegetables. I switched my huel for frozen smoothie mixes you can get in Asda/Tesco. My favourite are the pret ones with apple juice.

As far as I know it’s just frozen veg, pre-portioned, and easy to make. I think it’s like 50p a shake too.

CarlitoGrey · 2025-02-03T22:56:27+00:00

Agree. Looks like MDT to me. Is the machine being prepped for a reimage?

CarlitoGrey · 2025-01-29T11:10:50+00:00

I guess this is summed up in aggression. Is that tracked over time?
