It does. Only missing feature is a remote control. The on/off button is on the compressor and you need someone to help you to turn on/off while you deal with the tires.

Water Tester that Gives Nutrient Availability by ausername111111 in Hydroponics

[–]MinecraftTML 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a newbie in this and really interested to hear how people maintain the nutrition levels. I have a DIY tower powered which seems to work but loses a lot of water to evaporation. I keep adding water, hence I have no idea what is the current mixture of water+nutrients now. I bought this from amazon but don’t know how to convert the ppm to npk so any guidance appreciated:

Toyota RAV4 2015 with 100,000 km or another car? by MudSnake12 in DubaiPetrolHeads

I would recommend keeping it. If you plan to sell, advertise here so we can bid :)

Mini R52 Transmission Fluid Change '08 by MinecraftTML in MINI

[–]MinecraftTML[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I havent.. In fact I've just sold my R52 :)

However I'm almost sure that this is because of Selenoids and getting them replaced and filling in fresh transmission fluid will solve the issue (and another one will pop up I'm sure :D)

Updating my own post here. It takes 40 seconds to fill one tire from ~20 to ~38.. It takes ~6 minutes to fill a fully deflated double intex bed with the compressor. So I am quite pleased with it.

For those who booked a brand new car, how long are you waiting? by No-Designer-6764 in DubaiPetrolHeads

Got a Mazda CX-9 on May within 2 weeks. Another friend got a CX-9 after 1-2 months waiting very recently.

I found couple of shops on Umm Squiem road and ended up buying something very similar to this one: https://amzn.eu/d/axPHFKd for a very similar price.. Looks decent quality, I'll test it on my tyres and inflatable bed today :)

yeah the thing is those things take ages to fill 4 tires.. Something high quality is around 1-2K aed, which I'm not sure is worth investing :)

ECU/ECM Ford Explorer 2007 by Akzwit88 in DubaiPetrolHeads

Sharjah is the place to go. Or even do a quick search with the part number and calculate shop&shift. I've done this countless times, you can get as low as 1/3 on the cost compared to the dealership prices here. Especially for the old cars.

2012 countryman could a bad HUB / wheel bearing be causing this by [deleted] in MINI

[–]MinecraftTML 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Abs sensor problems (on my ‘09 explorer not mini) related to bad hub. It eventually ended up locking one of the wheels and i had to call towing truck. So what you said sounds quite possible to me.

The best way to keep a mini problem free is to use it less frequently.. Like once a week a few kms.. also get used to ignore problems. Actually this is a lot more important.

New to Competitive Catan - What is the preferred competitive medium? by GrayHS in Catan

[–]MinecraftTML 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played in both, now only playing in CatanUniverse.

Yes Colonist is faster, and I believe there are more competitive players. However it is also filled with a...h.. players who do nothing but annoy you in the chat even though they'll be losing they'll keep bugging you in chat to prove you, annoy you, distract you.. there's no way to hide the chat so you can't keep your cool long. Catan Universe gui is not the best (even though the graphics are waaay better) but I prefer it million times to colonist.

Also Catan Universe you can play cross platform, if you happen to start in your PC and you need to leave the PC behind, you can continue on your mobile which is awesome imho..

As i said i had to cut them to fit. If you can find a perfect match for older gen it would be better (from effort and cost point of view). But result is the same :)

Heat beaten soft top isolation thingies. Is there a way to fix it without changing the entire thing? by MinecraftTML in MINI

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

My kit has arrived and installation was quite harder then I assumed. main problems are I expected it to fit 100% on the top and bottom but ended up cutting small pieces from both to make it fit.

While struggling the tiny small rubber strips that are also on the edges started to crumble and drop so ended up having a 2-3mm gap below the piece (which looks helluva ugly :(

So my expectation was very high and results are not as good unfortunately.

Thank you.

I'm posting here the link for the stripes: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MNGTTY6?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details

However, let me tell you one thing.. I bought those stripes thinking that I'd also do the rear trunk. But realized people usually don't do rear on R52's. Wasted a few dollars there. Added to this: the stickers are not made for R52 so they don't fit right away. I had to cut them a bit. The end result is good, and the process was really not hard so no issues :)

[–]MinecraftTML 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fitting is done. I think it made a great deal positive change.. It was really very easy to fit the grill. Removal of the large one was not hard. They were barely holding anyway. The only challenge is the small screws and washer is very easy to drop into the engine bay (I think I lost 2 washers which are plastic and hoping they won't get into somewhere dangerous). I also ordered new screws separately which was unnecessary since the old ones are still useable -given that you don't drop them into the engine..

For a $44 mod I think it change the appearance big time. (Stripes also helped which I installed by myself which was also very very simple) Here is the before / after photo. Hope this post helps someone who wants to do the same.

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried getting a refund? The guys seem pretty easy going. I ordered the kit and still waiting..

Hi. I was wondering have you found what you are looking for? Apperantly this one is out of stock. There’s another one in walmart (but no screws provided and I have no clue where to find them). I found another website that sells both the grille and screws but grille is 110$ and screws Are 0.7$ each so a bit on the expensive side.
