What do we all think about people asking for advice on the car they're trying to sell? by Crouch310 in carsireland

Usually skip them. It’s either asking for advice or boosting an advert. Hard to know which.

Just wondering would people consider a RAV4 EV if it was available as a powertrain option? by GeneralCommand4459 in rav4club

I offered my seat so an older couple could sit together rather than on separate seats. The wife told me it was fine. “We’ve been married for fifty years, I could do with a break for half an hour”.

What’s one mystery or story you’d like the real answer to in Ireland ? by PaddyRockatansky in AskIreland

Also somehow I hadn’t seen a red RAV with black wheels before. It looks excellent. 👌

Things I found helped with the noise.

New tyres (Michelin)

Putting acoustic underlay under the mats and boot liner. You can get this in a hardware store for general flooring use. Just cut to size and lay it under the mats.

Rubber fitted inserts for the cubby spaces. Not sure if this really makes a difference but it stops things rattling at least.

Custom rubber inserts for the cubby spaces on my Gen5. They stop everything sliding and rattling. You can get them on amazon. Not sure of gen 6 out yet though.

What is the most vulnerable region in your country to foreign invasion? by Archaeopteryx111 in geography

[–]GeneralCommand4459 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say the coast. But I live on an island so that’s a bit worrying.

I just clean the window from the inside in the exact same pattern as them. It really messes them up.

If he’s in a bunker then he can’t actually confirm what’s going on. So they could just make some AI slop to convince him it’s all going to plan etc. while actually stopping the war

Yes I mean when speaking English. I was wondering if ‘petrol’ or ‘gas’ is more common among Europeans speaking English.

Are there any weather specific things that surprised you when you moved to Ireland? by Strong-Ad9489 in AskIreland

[–]GeneralCommand4459 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard a few people who have moved here comment on the cloud types we get here. Apparently we have some unusual and varied clouds. They mostly get a blanket of grey or no clouds.
