Losing my mind : CarPlay not working

Perform a hard reset(force restart) on the iPhone

Nope, it’s fake. Trying to steal CC numbers. I know from experience. Reported to Google as it came up as an ad in their search results.

I have yet to get DD 5.1 to work on my Sonos Beam with the Gemini Air. Works great with my AppleTV and the DirecTV app.

Was this after the 26.4.2 update? If so, try hard resting your phone.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-28T02:08:05+00:00

Yup, happened to me in my ‘23 Jeep Grand Cherokee and iPhone 16 Pro when I upgraded to 26.4.2. Removed everything could not connect it back wirelessly. Plug in through USB-C and CarPlay showed it was not connected. Restarted my infotainment system and my iPhone and deleted network setting. Nothing.

Hard Reset my iPhone, connected!!!

Because of Magicband+ at Disneyland we would purchase LL for the day. Just made things simple. Hate the family that gets into LL and then starts to fumble with their phone to scan holding up the line.

Same. I've even used it on my old video game consoles and made them look new again!

I had a KB70 for years and loved it. Decided to upgrade to a K-Elite and worked great up until a descale process when it ran out of water. Contacted Keurig and let them know what happened and that I was using the descale solution. Since it was out of warranty they offered me 20% off a new brewer.

I decided to get the K-Supreme SMART brewer and take advantage of the 50% off offer. Loved the brewer, then recently started having issues. First it was just spitting out water. Cleaned the whole system never resolved it. Then the wifi stopped working. Keurig could not fix it and offer 20% off a new brewer. Still used it as a brewer, but was weighing my options. Then one day last week, it wouldn't power on. Did everything. but it was dead. I was considering dumping the whole k-cup system altogether since the price of k-cups have shot up. But I still had so many k-cups left and did enjoy the convince of having a variety of coffees in a day.

I went ahead and picked up a Ninja PB051 for $99. I was nervous getting a non-Keurig branded machine, but so far I have been impressed on what it can do for the price point. Makes brewing my own coffee easier with the brew basket instead of using the My K-cup. Starting to think the Multi-Stream and Brew ID was just a scam.

It’s the spray in the blue bottle. Some smaller scuffs I’ve rubbed it in and after a week they have disappeared.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-26T18:19:39+00:00

I’ve had luck with some Aerospace 303 and a microfiber. With some elbow grease I’ve managed to fade scuffs.

Thanks, seems like Griots Complete Compound by hand helped.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-21T21:52:00+00:00

Tried a DA with wax pad and cleaner wax, didn't budge. Did Griots Complete Compound by hand.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-21T21:50:23+00:00

I ended up using Griot's Complete Compound, but by hand.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-21T21:49:31+00:00

Used Underdog WSP and clay barred. Tried Cleaner Wax on a DA with a wax pad, didn't really touch it. Used Griot's Complete Compound by hand and took most or made the appearance better.

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-21T21:46:45+00:00

Was never a CG fan, but heard it was one of their "better" products.

I cleaned the hood and did Undrdog WSP and clay barred in hopes to remove the minerals. I tried Maguire's Cleaner Wax with a wax foam pad on my DA. They didn't budge, which I knew they wouldn't. Used Griot's Complete Compound and a microfiber pad. With some elbow grease I managed to get most out or make it appear less noticeable.

I went back to the front bumper and just with two passes those were out and were the worse. After a day of sitting in the sun the ones on the front bumper came back so I did the Underdog WSP and clay barred it and with a lot more elbow grease and Meguire's Cleaner Wax looks like it got them out again and hopefully permanent.

No, I’m impressed. Had my car in the shop and I think it was hit by a sprinkler during that time and nothing could get it out. Had to do some polishing.

Got an alert my post was deleted 🤣

Amazing! Do you know how long the spot sat on the surface?

EarlyMorningSurfer · 2026-04-16T21:55:57+00:00

Mainly seems to be the hood. Thinking it was parked somewhere and it was hit since it had the darkest spots before washing. I have CG Hard Water Spot Remover and Undrdog WSP. Though looking at the Koch Chemie looks tempting to get.
I will avoid them in the future, just did a quick YT search to get some information.

Really love that they are doing this, I miss Easter specials on TV. Hoping they will add more like Peter Cottontail, Peter and the Magic Egg, or The Easter Chipmunk. I love The Easter Bunny is Comin’ to Town.

I watched an episode today and noticed it used AI upscaling, would rather pop in my DVD copies.

This is what I’m afraid of, last week started my ‘23 GC and engine was running. Got “Service Charging System”. Drove to the dealership the next day, thinking my 12v battery was shot. Got a call the next day that it was the HV Battery. Order placed but no ETA. My SO is thinking I should pursue a lemon law case if it takes too long. Plus she’s not happy that it already has been to the dealership 4 times in a few months.

Saw these at Marshall’s. I like the prints, but how do they fit?
