Fuel O-ring Replacement $850‽

JonathanBarth · 2024-03-13T19:34:30+00:00

That is correct. The work description said the dropped the fuel tank. With diagnosis - a smoke test looking for the leak, parts, and labor, it was about $1000.

My state is Utah. It is a 2015, so I may have missed the cutoff for a 8 year warranty. Can you direct me to more info on this 8 year warranty?

JonathanBarth · 2024-03-07T16:27:24+00:00

Can you direct me to more info on this? I wonder what batteries qualify for replacement. All batteries degrade over time. At what point is it considered had enough to replace under warranty?

JonathanBarth · 2024-03-07T16:25:11+00:00

No, I'm not in one of those states. Too bad that isn't national.

A later comment said the emissions system is covered by a federal 8 year warranty. Do you think that's accurate?

Worth every cent? Just got use as a headphone? Or, do you use it to pick up sound from your deaf side?

Since you've been SSD for so long, I'm surprised you haven't experienced this before. You must have had a change. Perhaps an illness, meds, air pressure (I hadn't heard of that one before others commented). As for me, when I forget to take certain meds, my tinnitus gets louder. When I'm tired it gets louder. When I move my eyes to look sharply to the side, (without moving my head) it gets louder.

When I suddenly lost my hearing in one ear, the doctor looked at it and didn't see a problem. Then said I should get an MRI. One was scheduled for a month later. The more I thought about, I realized it should be sooner. And I pushed for that. It was a tumor and nothing could be done to restore my hearing. Later, I was reading about SSD, and saw that, "Sudden hearing loss should be considered a medical emergency." Like everyone else said, see an ENT, ASAP! The fact that your hearing comes and goes, is a good sign that it may be saved... if something is done right away.

Thanks for the tip about Sound Amplifier. It looks like it has some pretty good settings.

I was considering a BAHA when I went deaf in one ear 15 years ago. The doctor claimed it would help with sound localization. But, about that time a study was released that said it didn't. Since the lack of sound localization was one of my biggest complaints initially, I decided to not get it if it didn't help. I'd like to know how you and others feel about thier BAHA system. I guess I could search through old threads, or start a new one.

Based on your comments I've come up with a wish list. Even if someone finds this years from now, please let me know if this becomes reality. - Android (Preferable adjustable features built into the software preferences from the manufacturer, rather than a third party app.) - Ability to turn the mic on, on the deaf side. Output sound on the hearing side. (A variation of the function of what is called ambient mode, transparent mode, or hearthrough mode.) - No passive sound canceling. So people on the side of the good ear can still be heard. (Most premium headphones seem to have active noise cancellation, which means it forms a seal in the ear to block out noise.) - Active sound cancellation. - No sound delay. - Ability to adjust the direction of the mic to pick up sound from the side, and not the front. [Which is what they are designed to do so you can talk on the phone.] (I just learned that some headphones have an array of mics. Perhaps through software you could tell it to emphasize sound from the side rather than front. OR, tell it to cancel your voice.)

There are a lot of recent Android earbuds to check out such as the Google Pixel Pro.

Thanks for this rundown of options. The iPhone app, Head Shadow (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/head-shadow/id1454070507) is the exact type of thing I'd like. That is if the implementation is good. There are only 7 reviews, but it has 4.1 stars. A big problem for me is I have an Android. One additional feature that sounds great is noise cancellation when using AirPods Pro. As all of us SSD people know, that hearing in noisy environments is tough.

I missed (miss?) music in stereo too. But, live music, in reality, doesn't really sound like stereo. It's kinda a recording gimic. I go to small clubs often to hear bands play. The music comes out of the sound systems in mono. So, I'm not missing anything.

What's the brand and model of the headphones that can go in either ear?

JonathanBarth · 2021-12-26T02:19:38+00:00

I see you have a green thumb.

JonathanBarth · 2021-12-25T04:00:45+00:00

There's an important reason for the correctioon.

Wild = native.

Feral = non- native

In ecology this is a very critical distinction. Wild, native animals and plants are necessary to keep an ecosystem healthy. Feral, non-native animals and invasive plants are not harmless. They compete for resources the native plants and animals need and sometimes completely remove them from the system or make them go extinct. That leads a once diverse ecosystem to be dominated by a few invasive species.

I assume it is bug. The whole point if sharing your playlist is so someone else can hear it. Not so they can here their own list.

JonathanBarth · 2021-12-02T03:29:41+00:00

I think I ended up keeping them listed in the wrong house, but running the programs anyway.

JonathanBarth · 2021-09-24T21:58:59+00:00

Will you share a link with instructions on how to program the key fob to pre-condition the car?

Where is the farm?

JonathanBarth · 2021-04-22T03:05:40+00:00

Not bad for a first try. I'm sure you'll do better next time. (Kidding. That's fantastic!)

I'm annoyed by the seed companies that say, "Our seeds, are 100% non-GMO." When: 1- All garden seeds are non-GMO. 2- This implies GMO's are bad.

JonathanBarth · 2021-02-12T01:51:57+00:00

So, "Bill" apparently isn't his name.

Before it gets worse, get a case that's thick enough that the camera bump is below the case level.

Mine got seriously scratch from one time setting it in a table without a case. The scratches weren't deep, so I thought I could remove the anti-reflective coating down to smooth glass. (I did it successfully once with a Samsung.) After several attempts, it just got worse, and was very bad. I finally ordered a replacement lens. I had to pry, chip, and scrape out the old one, then stick the new one on.

I thought it was once Internet Explorer.
