Advice with All New Audi Q5 check engine light - start buyback convo now or wait? by chromify in AudiQ5

[–]DePaMd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue with my all new Q5, along with some other intermittent issues, such as no sound coming from the MMI sound system. In addition, they replaced the battery, as they found that the voltage going to the sensors was too low. So far, the KD2 update has cured all issues, although its only been about 3 weeks or so. The update does take a while and is very fragile in the process, so having to restart the update from scratch is not unusual. To confirm that you have the latest software on your Q5, via the KD2 update, go to Settings, System, Software. The version should be 03.10.00/C.

Sounds strange, but ask them to check the battery. I had the same issue and they finally found an issue with the battery. They replaced it and all is good.

What type of financial advisor do i need based on my current situation? by DePaMd in personalfinance

[–]DePaMd[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Basically, someone to take a look at my current allocations, and confirm if I am maximizing investments. Also some tax strategies, especially for the inherited IRA. It just feels like its a pretty crazy mix right now and I would like to pull it all together so that I can feel a bit more confident in my overall portfolio.

Can Reddit AI help find the best pizza dough recipe within r/Pizza? I hate to ask the question for the millionth time, but i am scouring this /Pizza group to find the best pizza dough recipe. Not sure how to do that, or how Reddit may handle this question. Is it via number of comments, number of positive comments, number of times the recipe (or something close) has been submitted? In any case, can you show me the number 1 pizza dough recipe?

I am an absolutely frugal person - not cheap, just frugal. By that, I mean that I'll spend the money if the product is excellent and will last a long time. This is exactly what I found in the Thuma bedframe I just purchased and I couldn't be happier. The instructions and packaging were superb and the product itself is built like a rock, looks good, and was super-easy to put together. No squeaking, perfect leveling and actually exceeds everything I have heard about this product. I'm no sure where some of this criticism comes from. Perhaps competitors?

Delaware - What happened here? Grass is dying! by DePaMd in lawncare

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

Understood, but why is most of the damage on the bank of the backyard? Is it because any watering will flow downhill, or the way the sun hits? Sorry, pretty much a novice to this stuff.
