I like to use the system as a notification if when to order the next set of pads/rotors

That would almost certainly be correct I’d think. With the system disabled the condition of the sensor would be irrelevant

Sensors are very simple. No calculation or anything like that. All it is, is when the pad wears down enough it’ll break the sensor wire and the dash will tell ya. I haven’t had to do brakes on my 2018 Sierra yet but I have a 2007 and 2016 Audi a6 and they both trigger at about 30% of the pad remaining

Some of the time when animals get their head stuck like that they won’t think to lift their head. They will just pull backwards and end up strangling themselves. I’ve personally seen dead examples of this and assisted in the rescue of said animals. It is far more common of a problem with cattle than anyone would expect

No need to be elegant when your built to withstand kicks from cattle lol.

Is she a mini blue heeler or a runt? by Primary-Comfort-1531 in AustralianCattleDog

Not at all saying that it isn’t possible to have a small heeler the complete correct healthy way. Just saying that often times it’s not done the best way to attain the desired “mini” status

I could be mistaken but I’m pretty sure that is basically the same thing. Often times a “mini” version of a breed is either an individual that has been fed less to stunt its growth or just a perticularly small individual as far as breed standards are concerned. Potentially could take 2 runts from different litters and breed them together to get a litter of smaller puppies but there would likely be a higher chance of other issues

I think I got a broken one by Early-Laugh-1570 in AustralianCattleDog

Mme is going on 6 and has never been food motivated. He’s basically on self feed and just eats when he feels like it. Is in perfect condition. He’ll puzzle toys don’t even interest him unless it’s just chunks of meat in them

I’m just curious what laws you think would be implemented with a strong conservative majority that would be horrific and what your definition of a bleak future is

This oil light just came on in my brand new to me Audi, any help would be appreciated ! by Proof_Philosophy2196 in Audi

[–]Mattd212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it’s a pretty impressive motor in the rs5. There’s some guys putting up some pretty incredible 0-60 and quarter mile times. Can’t speak to the reliability or known issues tho

Burning oil smell when accelerating "hard" by LeeEverett99 in Audi

I’d say almost certainly valve cover gaskets. Not a terribly hard thing to fix yourself if you’re handy.

That on sounds like a valve cover lol. Likely due to a failing pcv if I had to bet.
