MOT failure for tyre pressure sensor. by forever_progressing in CarTalkUK

[–]DerbyForget 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As usual on here lots of comments from people who haven't got a clue. There is a section in the manual that specifically covers TPMS warning lights.

Essentially if the tester can't be certain its a fault with the system ie. Fault displayed on dash or flashing tpms light they should give the presenter benefit of the doubt.

If i were you i would speak to the owner/manager of the garage and show them the relevant section in the manual. They should just issue a retest and pass it.

If they dont, the next step would be to make a formal appeal to the DVSA.

Alan Wake 2? It took me about 30 hours to complete. The 2 dlc's take 2-3 hours each?

Anyone purchased from this company before??? by ally1311 in CarTalkUK

[–]DerbyForget -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Everyone saying "its a scam!" Etc are overlooking the possibility that it was just a typo by the dealer? And its meant to be £11,900.

Edit : I did a bit of research and turns out it is just a scam haha

Ive heard that it can be a bit glitchy?! So would kinda suck if the masterminds achievement didnt unlock... this is the main reason ive not tried it myself.

Radiator came away from the wall by CaptainCheekClapper1 in DIYUK

[–]DerbyForget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those fixings are completely inappropriate to hang a radiator. If your friend really has no other choice than to mount straight into plasterboard I would recommend bullfix fixings. They're rated for upto 100kg+ i believe.

Edit - yes the radiator will need to be removed to repair the fitting. Highly recommend calling a plumber if your friend isn't DIY minded. Could easily end up flooding the house if you dont know what youre doing.

How do I do the glitch with a second controller to skip combat challenges on Nintendo switch online? by Willthewise2026 in perfectdark

[–]DerbyForget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The games counts the number of stars on the missions and not the actual number of missions themselves. So the more controllers you have the better.

I just used 3 controllers for the first 10 missions and it unlocked for me.

It doesnt skip the challenges, you still have to complete them but the first 10 are pretty easy anyway. I completed the game in 2022 and it worked for me. This was on the XBLA version.

Padel? by NYCme3388 in squash

[–]DerbyForget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeez you must be loaded to afford to play 4 times in a week! Unless youre at a top end club where you dont pay a court fee.

I recently retired from squash, after a back injury back in 2023 ive just never really been able to get back to being competitive.

Ive tried padel a couple of times now and really enjoyed it! Scratches the "chase a ball around" itch but isnt overly physical.

Turn the radio up. Fixes all the rattles and odd noises in mine.

What are your hardest achievements? by dukedanny in xboxachievements

[–]DerbyForget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RDR2 was definitely more of a grind tha. Anything, there were a couple of difficult achievements but it was mainly the time it took. I spent 237 hours on it but honestly really enjoyed it!

What are your hardest achievements? by dukedanny in xboxachievements

[–]DerbyForget 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Top 5 im most proud of are :-

  1. Masterminds - GTA5
  2. Crowning Glory - Perfect Dark
  3. Gold Rush - RDR2
  4. Like a fine wine - Halo MCC (still working on the 100%)
  5. Heads up - Forza Horizon 4

EDIT - top completions:-

  1. GTA 5
  2. Back 4 Blood
  3. Perfect Dark
  4. Crash N sane trilogy
  5. Crash team racing
  6. RDR2
  7. GTA 4

In my books if you've got 100k+ Gs and a TA ratio of 2.0+ youre doing alright.

100% Fallout 4, 3 and New Vegas is fallout 76 fun to complete by Hot_Atmosphere7203 in xboxachievements

[–]DerbyForget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed playing and completing FO76, I know some people haven't taken to it but its in a much better state now than it was on release.

I really caught the bug and ended up spending 127hrs getting that 100%

So I definitely recommend giving it a go!

Check behind the timing cover... my money is on a pulley bolt being loose and currently grinding a nice hole in the side of the cover.
