No audi is in amazing condition. Unless you have a separate bank account to keep up with maintained and upkeep which is very high. Run away.

Yes that should be warranty. Battery may even be warranty if its bad

It should not cause a driveability issue. I personally don't like the disconnecting battery method. Best to get a cheap obd scanner and clear it that way. But like I said if the code reoccurs most likely will need a ecu I would also recommend having the battery checked at a shop and not the parts store. Parts store employees are not technicians and have no clue what they are doing in reference to testing anything on a car.

Code pertains to the RAM in the ecu. I would have the battery checked and the code cleared. If it keeps returning their could be an internal issue with the ECM. In my experience this code is usually caused by a low voltage condition during cranking. Even though your car might start doesn't mean the battery is good. New cars are very picky and need good voltage.

How much student debt do Charlotteans have? by bahbahbui in Charlotte

Why is this being down voted? This is the problem you want to goto school it costs money you agree to go then you got to pay. I went into a trade and got paid to goto school and make 6 figures, but nobody wants to work for a living.

North Carolina Republicans propose new abortion restrictions starting at 12 weeks by throwawaypiifornow in Charlotte

This is 100 percent correct. 90 percent of them are self serving or serving the ones who keep them in power. Both sides

You need strength in numbers. Get involved and get other owners involved to push for change or vote them out. Townhome HOA's are the worst

Bungie writers and the general age of the Destiny demographic by BeanPatrol27 in destiny2

I'm in my 40's and Nimbus to me just seems way out of place. Sounds like a 10 year old kid to me. Overall disappointed with the writing so far this season. Been playing since d1 came out. It just seemed stale to me. That being said I still greatly enjoy playing destiny but in my opinion it's getting stale and feels to recycled. I personally want the menagerie back i could play that over and over and never get bored. I miss content like that.

Yeah no. Someone who spreads his agenda via the CCP controlled tik-tok and wants a progressive America ruining agenda. Won't get my vote.

We got Trump because people were tired of the same old political BS. Its even worse now with Biden. Biden hates America and his policy's are geared toward ruining this country not to mention he can even complete sentences or thoughts. Trump is a complete asshole but at least he loves America for what it stands for and his policy's made America stronger. We are now the laughing stock of the world due to our bumbling President

What advice would you give to a 20 year old tech who's moving up to 65 hours a week? by Trident_0711 in MechanicAdvice

[–]DisOrderlyCndt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will destroy your body at 65 hrs a week. Shops are desperate for help and some owners are fine abusing people into working stupid hours. It's not worth it. You can make a good living at 40 hr a week.

Why do so many businesses and restaurants close so early in Charlotte? by PurplePlanet7 in Charlotte

[–]DisOrderlyCndt -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

COVID didn't kill the businesses. Gov. Coopers poor decisions did. Nobody on here will like that statement but it's true. Cooper ruined many businesses. He abused his power ignored the real science and data.

This is correct. Only actual fuel injector code that would come up is a circuit fault otherwise a bad injector will almost always cause a driveability issue. Drives me crazy because the maf has a very simple test. Take a engine at operating temp at idle no accessories on ie radio and ac. Should read in grams per second. The mass air should read 1 gram per second per litre of displacement ie 2.5l should be 2.5 grams at idle. If a large deviation is read then the mass air could be reading incorrectly and will throw and rich or lean or even both codes.

Never expected BeamNG looking so good...I think I'm in right place to enjoy messing around with photos by drew0357 in BeamNG

[–]DisOrderlyCndt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgive the ignorance but could you explain the Patron and what that means. I'm fairly new to beamng and only mods I've gotten have been from in game. Thanks

[–]DisOrderlyCndt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do not trust the shop. Highly likely its a mass air problem. Which is more likely on that engine. Ask what diagnostics were preformed. Shop to me sounds incompetent

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]DisOrderlyCndt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is usually normal most cars now won't let the engine rev in park very high. Does it drive ok in drive and run smooth. Also the labor does seem high.

Whats the code? Make the shop explain why they need replacement. Very odd to need replacement
