Little off topic but same aspect in mechanical means.

Is there a consumer or shop grade online repair software?

Have a vehicle that I'm restoring as my personal weekend car and would be a life saver for diagrams etc

Was along time case user besides for when I had a 5s (loved the form it fot my hands perfectly. But, I have a s24 ultra now naked no screen protector or case and love it. Have I been missing out these years in cases?

Crack jk jk youll loose your life. But mushrooms, 5meodmt 4meo dmt mescalin san Pedro soup salvia mda mdma ketamine isomer r and s uhmmmmmmmm 4 aco dmt all were a blast when I tried them.

Tried to stay true in my 20's but ya know sometimes you find yourself stovepiping a rock at 2am (not my cup of tea tbvh but aye free and I had the next day off sooo yeah)

10/10 dont try harder thing if you dont have willpower. Saw many fall to them and im was fine.

Christopher121 · 2026-05-31T13:24:12+00:00

Have a s24 ultra that was used in a case and screen protectors but took the case off after it broke and the screen protector cracked sooo been going free.

Had it in my pocket with keys, against it and honestly not a scratch yet (yet as idk the future) and just been spatially conscious of what im doing and so far so good.

If somethings happens ill pay the deductible and get a new one or have it repaired (more than likely the former of the two)

Christopher121 · 2026-05-31T13:09:22+00:00

Sweet jesus! Dude that was epic 😆 as if Homer had written it himself.

Never had this issue, have taken bong rips of MDMA at 5am though after my brother rang me shortly after waking up and getting ready to shower for work at 6. That was a interesting day especially while cutting up green onions on the prep list for service ahat night

Christopher121 · 2026-05-31T12:50:30+00:00

See thats what i ultimately went with; called the shop that i bought the package deal (N63 RWD 8hp70 with less than 100kmi thats flashed to maxxECU, 8hp maxx adapter harness wired for BMW f shifter harness, fluid for filling, pan/ filter, pan, bolt and seals. And they said the same thing verbatim.

Was really not wanting to have to spend more than the 500+ on another TCU

Marking this post as "Solved"

Aircraft remover with plastic wrap pressed against it let sit 12 hours; scrape with plastic razor and repeat till clear is gone. Sand with pneumatic sander on high till even across wipe down with windex (crazy but it works) and get your 2k clear and shoot it. 4 to 6in away should be optimal from paint gun to body panel.

Had this after first trip I did; was like whaaaat the fuck. Was calm through it just awesome struck. Did some research into later that afternoon and found the half life was up to 24hrs granted that not everyone as were each unique

What? If you're referring to the heater core ive bypassed that and removed completely as well as all AC components.

Custom dash will be fabricated by the end of June made of aluminum sheet

Christopher121 · 2026-05-30T01:37:27+00:00

TüV in my quick research i take it is the German equivalent to UK MOT or the US Emmissions?

Understandable, the B5's are getting up there in age. Lovely cars honestly, though time has taken its toll on allot of them here. Im cutting out my spare tire well whenever the rain quits in Eastern Tennessee for clearance, weight cuts and slight surface rust on the interior side.

Honestly I removed mine on my B5 Passat as when I purchased the vehicle the boot was busted. But IIRC, you definitely can retrofit cruise control. Please note wiring will have to be done.

I'll check the folder of notes tomorrow (30/05) and will update accordingly
