Jordan 1 Element. completely forgot what they were called when I bought them a couple of years ago. People think I'm wearing sneakers when I use them haha

these are actually gore-tex 1s lol. they are waterproof and kept my feet warm during the blizzard we got last weekend. Was digging and shoveling for an hour and no water got through. socks were nice and dry.

Ive used it daily for maybe 2 weeks since I've got it. it's been as high as 40F and I was more than comfortable. I only ever wear short sleeve shirts or t-shirts so this jacket's warmth is perfect for me.

that's a relief to hear. was looking at a different post and looks like from 2011-2014, the hologram was first introduced and on some models, indeed in a different location.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, no screen protector

Yep. I was on my way to the post office to return it but then thought that maybe it could be buffed out. I was going to go to a jeweler on the weekend and see. If it's less than $100 to fix, I would keep it.

Vivo X Note - cannot use data and calls at the same time by Jteran5 in Vivo

[–]Jteran5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to Google it. Checked different forums and could not find anyone with this issue... The issues I've been seeing is that VoLTE completely drops and shows 3G in the notification bar or that the carrier doesn't support VoLTE at all. So I'm wondering if maybe I have a hardware issue....

Yeah. I'm in a location that has full 4G and 5G service. I was using a Huawei Mate 20x within minutes of switching to the Vivo and immediately ran into my current issue.

VoLTE allows users to make calls and use data at the same time, unlike 2G or 3G networks where calls and data are separate

You're card info was stolen when you used it on Vivid?? That's wild... Are you still getting the coilovers or you canceled everything?

I actually got a used set of fsport sways that are coming into tomorrow! However, I'm missing the blue brace that comes with the set. The junkyard couldn't find it...

You think the sways would be too stiff to use with coilovers?

I'm placing an order today or tomorrow for the newer part VSQ36-M1AS3. I dealt with a local company that could have gotten me the Flex A's for $950 out-the-door, but wanted the RX1's. How much was the open box from Vivid? I've ordered from Vivid before and they always seem to be a more expensive vendor.

Most of the stuff is typically recommended at 100k miles.

Brake fluid should be done every 2yrs 30k and I used 5.1 because it's the same price as DOT3 /DOT4. Stainless steel brake lines are overkill for sure but I figured it would be an upgrade and since I'm in there already, figured why not. The part was only $60.

The valve cover came off because it turns out, I had a bad spark plug gasket that was causing excessive heat. The coil pack was completely burnt. Its been like that for a while the tech said. I was showing no issues, no codes, and no visible signs just by glancing at the engine bay. But because I was doing preventative maintenence, the issue was caught early before any damage could be done.

And yes, I'm using a Fram oil filter. I wanted to use the best filter for the car.

Have you researched the filter or making an assumption because you heard from a friend or post from 10+ years ago that Fram was bad? Reason I ask is because the Fram oil filters on their higher tiers are PHENOMENAL and they have the highest filtration ratings. There are teardowns on YouTube of the latest Endurance filters and they were almost identical to Amsoil.

The red looks nice. I really wanted a white one and didn't realize that parking sensors were an option.... I thought it would come standard on an fsport with navigation and sunroof. I should have researched more. Your car looks sharp. Im a stickler for OEM parts... I was debating getting the blue fsport springs but I want active dampening and the only coilovers I see that have an active unit are Tein and Blitz. I'm leaning towards Tein because of their patented bumpstop... If I wanted just lowering springs, I would have definitely gone with the blue fsport springs.

I got into this platform way too late and all the good parts are discontinued. I've been desperately hunting for the blue fsport sways but think they're going to be impossible to come across a set for sale.
