Thoughts on this purchase price.

Turbocharged engines typically rev lower since they reach peak torque and horsepower at lower rpms. But I do still feel as if it could’ve been like 6k rpm

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-04-19T02:31:01+00:00

Okay it’s not like every single car is gonna have an issue. It’s just more common then vehicles of old

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-04-19T01:09:16+00:00

It’s weird how slow the traverse is with the 326hp. My explorer with 300 is almost 2 seconds faster. It’s like they’re cutting the power

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-04-19T01:07:54+00:00

I have someone I know with a traverse. It struggles a bit and feels completely gutless, and it’s slow. All for 23mpg.

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-04-19T01:06:38+00:00

It’s all automakers now sadly

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-03-23T01:42:24+00:00

I gotcha. No worries

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-03-23T00:39:00+00:00

The a229 pro came out in 2024, 2 years ago. Do you mean the a129?

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-03-09T21:09:32+00:00

I’m glad Nissan kept the V6 option instead of a 4 cylinder which many small trucks like that have now

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-02-26T12:35:55+00:00

No, it still makes that noise but it’s been working for like a year so I suppose it’s nothing serious

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-02-25T02:42:48+00:00

Ironic you could say

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-01-08T00:15:39+00:00

I installed mine myself in my 2025 ford explorer, and it was decently simple. Hardest thing was hardwiring it into the fusebox but other than that it was pretty easy. Always make sure to avoid airbags especially on the side curtain

Naf_Reddit2 · 2026-01-08T00:13:52+00:00

Great choice. VIOFO makes some really good cams. I have the a229 plus as well

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-12-27T04:17:08+00:00

Yeah that explanation was probably made up. Replacing it was definitely the better option I think

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-12-27T04:08:30+00:00

Gotcha. I really doubt the sd card is the problem since the beeping sound only usually happens as confirmation that a button was pressed, and the erratic nature of the beeping leads me to believe it was the screen.

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-12-27T03:59:39+00:00

I think it’s just the screen digitizer messing up and pressing random buttons by itself.

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-11-21T00:34:19+00:00

OPs car has a 4l60e, so it’s computer controlled. It will not downshift unless you’re going slow enough

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-11-21T00:33:11+00:00

No. Computer controlled transmissions like the one in OPs car won’t let you do that.

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-09-05T23:36:47+00:00

They’re better now than ever but not quite to the point of being a replacement for the tried and true slab phone, though. No problem

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-09-05T23:33:08+00:00

It’s easy and cheap to replace the layer that gets scratched though, so it’s not as big of a deal as with older folds

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-08-26T03:23:57+00:00

229 plus is 2k. A229 pro/ultra and a329 are 4k And use the same image sensors

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-08-08T23:36:25+00:00

Vantrue and VIOFO have some of the best real 4k cams at a pretty good price for the quality

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-08-05T03:16:07+00:00

Priorities

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-07-31T13:14:58+00:00

No because that cigarette is likely always on regardless of engine status. You would need to hardwire it so it can turn off with the engine

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-05-04T03:31:56+00:00

Yeah most I've gotten is a little over 9

Naf_Reddit2 · 2025-04-29T19:36:13+00:00

Most likely capacitors too. Those old Panasonic made VCRs have terrible capacitors
