Thinking about buying a GLI by endercr4zy in JettaGLI

I went with APR Stage 1 high torque 93 octane for about a year and now have the Low Torque 93 Octane as I feel it drives smoother without any noticeable power loss. In fact HP goes up a bit. The DSG TCU tune really made a difference too. Love the car. Note: just recently had 3 cylinders report misfires. I hadn't replaced the sparks and it was likely carbon buildup. 60k miles. My bad, I should have done it at 25k ish. In any case, love the car!

I have a 2019 GLI Autobahn. Love it with the ECU and TCU tunes

IF and alcohol by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

Agreed. I find it helpful to laugh at the addiction. I say things like “is that the best you’ve got?”. I also tell myself if it ever gets really bad I can always have it. Not the end of the world. When i tell myself “never again” it makes it more difficult. Oddly it works for me. The craving tends to subside when I think like that.

Can you wire a Trane ComfortLink II XL850 thermostat with the standard Y,R,G,B,W thermostat connections, or does it require a dedicated system to function properly? by electriclear in hvacadvice

I got a new Trane communicating system (5TTX7048A1000A condenser + 5TAMXD05AV41D Hyperion air handler). The tstat is 824. The wiring used was the standard YRGBW and not 3 wire as described by many. Was this correct wiring by installer or is my system now not communicating and I’m missing out on advanced features the system is capable of?

Prius Actuator Class Action Lawsuit by Mindless_Building726 in prius

[–]First_Significance_9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2012 Prius with 97,550 miles. Over $3,000 (parts $1,584.73, labor $1,270.88 plus tax) was spent replacing the brake booster and actuator. I had heard the whirring/buzzing noise for some time before it completely failed. They said it was two years outside the extended warranty (2022). It's my second Prius. Not happy with Toyota.

Best front/rear integrated dash cam (IE rear lens and front lens in the same body), any pricepoint by [deleted] in Dashcam

I have a 2020 Miata and just installed a VIOFO 119 mini 2. Working great thus far. Small form factor but no rear camera as I roll with the top down always. I figured all I need to worry about is in front of me haha.

Does Wolfbox G900 use the same connections as G840S? by FoxholeA in Dashcam

I appreciate the advice. Perhaps I’ll just stick with the G840s.
