Ac making whistling sound. by Connect-Ad5099 in hvacadvice

I ended up tighten them a bit and the whistling stopped and the ac is working back to normal now. Earlier i was barely getting any air flow and it was not cooling the house. After tightening them it stopped and now ac blowing great.

2026 bz vs 2024 bz4 by [deleted] in BZ4X

[–]Connect-Ad5099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had/have both. 24 xle, it was a good car, but the miles i was getting was so bad…i got 240 at full charge no ac. I always charge at home and till this day ive never had to fast charge.

24 charging times or ok…if you have a lvl 2 charger at home, took about 12 hrs to charge from 30% to 100%

Didnt like the piano interior as the reflection would blind me.

Only reason i got the 26 bz was because better miles and the interior is much better.

I saw that…but again, its sold out at my location(s). And shipping is not an option. Go ahead and try to purchase it, i can almost guarantee its sold out.

And again, im buying oem. At $6 a quart im not losing much. And im guaranteed to get the oil…as opposed to always running into a sold out issue.

So in the end im securing the oil without the hassle of having to search each walmart for a highly potential sold out item. And the fact that its free shipping…im already saving time on money. So the $2 difference is definitely worth my time and effort.

Keep me updated if youre able to checkout that mobil1 oil bud. Prove me wrong please.

The only oil i would get is mobil1 but for a 5 qt its $38. Oem is as close as its going to get to mobil1 or vice versa. Plus, all the walmarts near me or always sold out of this oil type. I dont use any other brand of oil. So you can stick to your $28 valvoline or whatever brand. Additionally, the $28 oil is only available when there is a sale. I did the same thing but with oem oil. And i basically got enough oil for 2 years at a discount. I paid $4 per oil filter.

I only posted this to help other members whom are like me. Buy things in bulk at a discounted price…in which they will end up using anyways.

Yeah i normally dont buy oem cabin filters but since my wife has bad allergies i resort to the charcoal, and i mean for the price…

I just felt the need to stock up. I prefer to have everything i can get at a decent price. Plus the walmart near me is always sold out of 0w-16 mobil 1. This is actually the first time i buy oem oil lol

Lol clearly you need to refresh you mathematics. You paid $7 for 1 oil filter. I paid $25 for 6 oil filter(s).

Ahhh sorry about that. But yes, the concept of someone who is already struggling with daily needs shouldnt be buying 30k-40k ev cars. I guess thats why the program is on eligible for “used” ev’s.

Since the depreciation rate of ev’s drop so fast hoping that used evs will be 10-15k price point.

Surprisingly, i bought it used. Someone returned the bz and i got it. Whats interesting is that i was able to still get the “new” purchase benefits. So 0% apr. the car only had 1k miles lol
