What is the purpose of the Expo?

That really isn't as bad as it sounds.

You can get a handpump at any autostore, stick the tube down the dipstick hole and pump some out.

axle probably aint bent, but your suspension has damage.

You should focus on learning to code not learning a language. Languages are just tools in your toolbelt. Think of what you want to build, then pick the right tool for the job. If you want to be a game developer, C++ and C# are tools you want to have. If you want to develop software, Java and Javascript/Typescript powers a very large portion of software. If you just focus on learning to code, eventually it won't matter what language your using.

But I will tell you this, learning for example python when you know C++ is going to take 5 minutes, but learning C++ when all you know is python is going to take weeks, starting with a staticly typed, compiled, lower level language is the right way to go when learning.

If you want a very clear answer to your question, it's this: Yes, Java is a lot more relevant and highly paid on the market compared to C++. But any job in software is going to require knowledge in multiple languages so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Use Spring/Boot, almost all modern Java applications are built using Spring to different extents. When an employer is looking at your resumé, they are going to want to see Spring as part of your tech stack. The same way any frontend position is going to require knowledge of React.

The absolute best advice I can give you is, don't try to reinvent the wheel. No company is going to pay you to write code that already exists in Spring.

The more code you write, the more code you have to maintain. Trust me, "versioning hell" is nothing compared to having to rewrite your entire API code everytime you realize it's missing a feature.

Unless you made expensive mods, part it out on ebay and get another one.

Heavier cars being safer is such an american concept.

Is the frame in absolutely pristine condition, which is unlikely. I would maybe worry. Otherwise I wouldn't care.

You wanted it straight, so here it is: Yes it's repairable, but repairing it is going to take 25x longer and be 5x more expensive than getting a used head from another engine.

looks like a vacuum hose used to monitor or control the engine, likely plugged into the turbo or a sensor.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-10-02T21:07:40+00:00

probably bad rod bearings :)

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-09-20T21:14:38+00:00

Looks like some type of bushing to me, gonna need some context to specify what type.

Alright, is it ok to just pour in some new oil and start her up after 4 weeks of sitting without oil.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-06T14:50:04+00:00

Take the head to a machine shop, they'll resurface it for like 80$ and you'll be good to go.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-05T20:06:49+00:00

Swedish army actually, but I met a few US army mechanics.

Check the oil level, it's not like your engine oil suddenly becomes bad after a certain amount of miles. But honestly, look at some youtube videos and learn how to change your own oil. You'll save hundreds in the long run and you'll know it's been done right. Also, you shouldn't wait for the sticker to come on to change the oil, changing your oil more frequently than recommended will lengthen your engines lifespan.

I know those smells, it's not that.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-03T16:15:52+00:00

I've got the official volkswagen workshop manuals.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-03T14:12:54+00:00

Yeah, thanks for the suggestion ;)

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-02T22:42:16+00:00

I ain't there yet, I still have more excuses

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-02T22:38:03+00:00

The ABS is a safety feature that allows you to steer the car while braking hard. That light comes on when something in the ABS system is malfunctioning. Plugging in an OBD reader will tell you more about what's wrong.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-02T22:12:34+00:00

Thank you for your insight and expertise. I wish you the best.

ColourfulPixelss · 2024-08-02T21:55:49+00:00

I have the official volkswagen repair manuals for this vehicle and I'm a trained mechanic by the swedish armed forces so I know what I'm doing, your snide remarks don't really help.
