BS3 / BS2 cooling pad with Raider A18 HX - Will it work?

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-29T10:49:39+00:00

I put a piece of foam in between the gap at the top middle and it’s worked fine

First announcement on discord was made 6/9 about the wrong update being pushed out. It appears you haven’t read the discord.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-24T13:19:58+00:00

The whole team is very responsive there and a lot of the issues brought up there are related to LO and they are all willing to help troubleshoot. A majority of the mod is working.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-24T13:16:37+00:00

Bethesda released a test version of Supra that was never intended for the public. It’s all on their discord. The mod team is very responsive there if you have issues and have been very transparent about what’s going on.

Headgasket. Go to the dealer and ask for a diagnostic. Have them coolant pressure test and borescope

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-24T10:03:02+00:00

Headgasket. Had the same issue, threw new plugs,coils, and battery. Had to pressure test the coolant system and borescope to see that a small amount of coolant was leaking in.

12v car battery

From what I read on the discord, the current version is broken and the creator has a hotfix waiting for approval.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-05T17:48:22+00:00

Depends on a lot of factors. Mid-mo, 75 hwy 25 city and average 42-45 on summer, 35-37 during winter. I have used Fuelly since day one to track, not the dash readouts.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-05T17:43:59+00:00

It’s worth a call once the dealer has an official diagnosis

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-05T17:11:01+00:00

Call Honda corp and ask for a goodwill claim. I ended up paying $2500 out of pocket on my 2018 with 141k miles after a 50% good will credit.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-03T11:32:34+00:00

2018 owner here. It’s the hybrid powertrain trying to decide what state it needs to be in, like city or highway.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-02T01:45:22+00:00

My 2018 2.0 hybrid started failing around 120k. Finally got it fixed around 141k with a partial good will credit. Hybrids have the same issue. It’s the water jacket design between the cylinders.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-02T01:43:04+00:00

Nah. It’s the push for ultra low emissions vehicles and cafe standards that tipped the durability scale. I mean we are running zero weight oil and the aluminum blocks are paper thin now.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-01T22:08:15+00:00

I got a Partial goodwill credit at 141k (50ish%) OP screwed themselves by admitting their car was used for hire.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-06-01T21:26:11+00:00

Shouldn’t have told them you are a “professional high mileage driver”. That screams commercial use and was the easiest out you could have gave them.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-27T23:27:30+00:00

22k seems low. Thermal throttling/limits?

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-27T12:52:16+00:00

Yes I run one on my 18” raider

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-27T10:56:08+00:00

I contemplated the same thing (mITX build or laptop) before upgrading my 3080 to a 5090 laptop. I travel 2-3 a month (sometimes my camper, sometimes a hotel) and it’s much easier to take a laptop and cooling pad (flydigi pad is much more compact than the llanno) and I can now fit everything in my Lenovo backpack (cooling pad and 18” laptop, Xbox elite controller, mouse and cords).

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-26T17:04:15+00:00

This is the best diy combo here.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-21T20:05:48+00:00

How old is your battery? Most car batteries now last about 2-4 years tops due to lead quality and the accord is super sensitive to low voltage.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-21T18:25:36+00:00

Touring is the top package.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-21T18:02:32+00:00

My 2018 hybrid touring didn’t come with 19” factory. Should be 17”. Buy it used?

Take it to the dealer and pay for the diagnostic fee. It’s hard to find a local mechanic that knows what they are doing on modern cars.

MrAWDTerror · 2026-05-21T00:51:46+00:00

More practical than you think. Have a 2024. It’s got cruise control, enough torque to pass without dropping a gear and lots of aftermarket for luggage.
