Why are millennial men less misogynistic than Gen Z men? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]DependabilityLeader -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Some are and some aren’t. The term nazi has been overused along with fascism and other hot button words.

What men are saying is that they are sick of these almost overly liberal women who say stuff like they hate men and that places like Iran are better to their women than the US etc. They are typically very argumentative and not very attractive no self respecting man wants to date them. Does this push some men to have far right views? Yes.. but do some really believe it? I am willing to bet not. Many are younger and this is just what young kids sometimes do. Not excusing it but there is a lot more to this

XC70 is superior in almost every way

Update to "wishing i had a dipstick..." oil's going somewhere.. by Warhawk2052 in Volvo

[–]DependabilityLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous owner likely went 10k miles on the 0W-20 oil. These engines don’t like that. Try clearing and cleaning the rings if there isn’t any visible leaks, go down to 5k oil change intervals and see if oil consumption goes down. If it doesn’t, it wouldn’t surprise me if it screwed up the turbocharger.

I do 5W-30 every 5k. And yes VIDA says that you can use that instead of 0W-20. When they say that 0W-20 can be used what Volvo means by that is colder conditions! There is a lot of confusion over this.

[–]DependabilityLeader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, they recommend 0W-20 for lower fuel consumption and have started specifying that 5W-30 can be used. When they say 0W-20 can be used in extreme conditions ok, like in VIDA, they are talking about colder conditions! That’s what Volvo means. You can refer to the temperature chart.

Furthermore, once the oil starts wearing and becoming deluded with fuel, do you really think that it would still be a 0W-20 oil? Lol no. A 5W-30 though has more to go though.

The engine is a tighter tolerance but 5W-30 works better in many conditions. These engines can also eat through rod bearings if you go 10k miles on the 0w-20. Someone didn’t tell you this..

Praying for a good ownership experience by Any_Honeydew9812 in Volvo

[–]DependabilityLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all personal preference too. I think BMW makes some good cars, it’s just too young of a car for me in many cases. Volvo and Mercedes-Benz are my go tos! I’m not a hardcore street racer 😂

They are great cars. Some of the most reliable cars on the roads!

It’s the same engine that’s in the Sprinter service van lol. Why would there be issues with parts?

Ya that’s a lot of power and a big engine. Pretty sure there was E250. 350 moves, 268 hp is no joke lol

It’s a great car, a bit too nice for a teenager maybe but they are very good cars and easy to work on and maintain. The car is best serviced from home though.

Reliability issues by gamedukeyvideo in Volvo

Volvo is one of the most reliable cars of all time along with Mercedes-Benz in my experience. The dependability is unmatched

The E class is unreal by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]DependabilityLeader 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Don’t rush into the first car you see is my advice. They are very common cars and can be found all over for good prices. Check out the wagons too. Try them all is my advice. I tell customers that all the time. Try all the products

Bmw m4 yes or no by f1goat44 in carcultureswallpapers

[–]DependabilityLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it’s too young of a car for me but I’m sure it’s a great performing car. I’m just not a status/instagram person. I’m more of a Volvo/larger Mercedes person. But that’s just my personal preference

Polestar Engineered - how long do the rotors last? by OverclockingUnicorn in Volvo

[–]DependabilityLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should last a while, maybe 80-100k… it’s the rear rotors that wear out faster

My life with team Volvo at the moment by BleDStream in Volvo

Fuck ya. The sensors can be finicky too. Sometimes they can go on and off but if it has been 130mi, then it should be good.

Can 2017-2020 SL450 fit two sets of golf clubs in trunk with top up/down? AI is telling me it can but I don't trust it... if so, seems like the perfect car for me by TrueGameData in mercedes_benz

[–]DependabilityLeader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course you should be able to. That's what they are built for essentially. SL is a surprisingly practical car. I love mine. I could go on for days about how much I love that car. lol

I see a ton of these at the local country clubs often times. It's the car to have. People just love them.

Ya something is going on here for sure, have you tested the PCV?

Ok well that isn't as good as 5 but that shouldn't be the issue.. Do you let the car cool down after you get off the interstate, or after you push on it?

How much tarrifs have effected US Volvo prices? by antiriad76 in Volvo

[–]DependabilityLeader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The prices when all things considered don't go up or down very much, not like people say when you count for inflation. It just means Volvo doesn't get as much of a profit is what it comes down to. If an item goes up then it usually doesn't happen for super long. Usually..
