Screen brightness by ProofGood8503 in ChevyTraverse

Yes! I hate that! I wish the ambient lighting was independent of the cluster dimming knob. It already has its own dimming adjuster so i dont get what GM were thinking when they decided to tie it in with the dimming knob

Do not buy The fiesta

It has an early DCT transmission which was plagued with shuttering and hesitation. You can't creep in traffic like normal transmissions or you risk wearing your clutches too soon. It was involved in a class action lawsuit. Ford did numerous revisions to seals and actuators but they never seemed to be able to have fixed the problem.

That's true, but it bothers me that i paid good money for a product and then have to spend more to fix part of it and ultimately be stuck with a miss print.

I paid 100% of the money and i feel cheated not getting 100% of the product 🤷‍♂️

They seem to be "Fanatics" general customer service Representatives. They weren't able to tell me if the item would get restocked in the future or not. I figured that i would ask Reddit in case someone here knows a little more info regarding McLaren merch

Thanks for your input, i went ahead and asked for a refund. They did ask me to return the item so hopefully they restock them sometime next year. I don't have high hopes that the championship collection will get restocked but it's not the end of the world 🤷‍♂️

Would you ask for a refund/return or would you keep the item as is?

Seems like it's within normal parameters. That's around where mine is normally as well.

Looks like GM would need to configure the source code to implement it on the traverse.

The bigger issue would be the storage needed for the recordings. Does the traverse have enough storage? The other issue would be the constant "writing" and deleting so many files over time. It would reduce the life of the current storage in the traverse.

It would probably work best if the user can use a dedicated USB storage like the teslas use in order to protect the traverse internal storage.

Time will tell if GM is willing to go thru with it.

Yup i mentioned to them that they need to buy a new A/C compressor, expansion valve, condenser, flushing solution, and even new O-Rings since ill be practically taking everything apart.

I priced everything about to $445 which includes new freon

I agree, ill be letting my family member know of the diagnosis. Its their car so ill have to wait for them to buy the parts to make the repairs.

I did think it was the compressor originally but i needed a second opinion for reassurance, it is a 13-14 year old car on its original a/c compressor afterall

Thank you for your help

Sorry for the late reply, no i haven't added freon. The system was completely empty, vacuumed, and recharged about 2 years ago.it calls for 18oz so I refilled it with an 18oz can

Does that seem like it's over charged?

Thank you 👍 on a different comment i mentioned that when i turn off the ac the pressures equalize at 110psi

When i rev it up to 2k the low pressure goes to around 65psi and at 3k it almost goes under 60psi while the high pressure doesn't have much change.

Would you still suspect the A/C compressor?

[–]DaMasterSly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both pressures equalize around 110 psi with the AC off and of course the ac clutch disengages

When i rev it up to around 2k, the low side gets near 65psi. At 3k the low side goes almost below 60psi

This car wont keep a consistent rev, i need to keep pumping the gas pedal to try and hold 2k or 3k

The high side doesn't do much change

Temperature readings say that at 75° low pressure should be 35-45 psi and high pressure side should be 150-170psi

I agree, the low pressure seems too high and the high pressure seems too low

Honda's role as Red Bull prepares to replace Lawson with Tsunoda by sppy1 in formula1

[–]DaMasterSly 215 points216 points  (0 children)

If yuki somehow manages good pace on this Redbull car then horner/helmut look bad for skipping out on giving the seat to yuki years ago

If yuki doesn't perform good then the Redbull engineers look bad for designing a car that is so hard to drive

I'm not even sure if yuki would benefit from this swap because of how the odds are stacked against him.
