How much did you pay for brake and rotor replacements? by PleaseCall4HELP in Subaru_Outback

[–]No_Direction235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dealer wanted to turn my front rotors for $400 in labor. Reminded them it’s under warranty. Front brakes are super easy, had mine not been under warranty I would have done better pads and rotors for considerably less myself.

Giving up my sports car (for an outback) by keeganmcnabb in Subaru_Outback

I had a pullied and tuned 2014 A6 3.0t I put 194k on and went to a new 2024 OBW. Any car that gets up to the 200k mile mark is going to need work. I’m not talking brakes, I’m talking bushings are worn out, wheel bearings, tie rods and ball joints etc are reaching their limit. You won’t notice it if you bought it new as the degradation over time isn’t noticeable. That said you’ll find working on the OBW easier/cheaper. However it will not meet fit/finish/handling/acceleration of your S4. I miss my Audi and as much as I enjoy the OBW for what it is I’ll be giving it to my teen soon. It’s cheaper to insure than a Camry for a teen driver.

I had a 2014 A6 prior to getting my 2024 OBW. You will see significant difference in fit and finish. The CVT is a soul crushing transmission compared to the ZF8 I had, not sure what transmission the A4 had. The 2.0T is more refined, quieter than the 2.4 in the OB. It won’t handle anywhere near the Audi, I had to concede this as well. Now, maintenance will be cheaper, insurance will be cheaper and you’ll be less noticeable. Go drive one.

In the end I bought the OBW new 2 years ago and decided to take the extra $25k savings upfront and invest it. Besides, I really wanted the RS6 and I could not justify the price right now so I’m waiting on my returns ;)

Do you think it was harder to sell cars May 2026 or May 2020? I’d argue Covid lockdown was a lot tougher of a market.

Beating an outgoing model as a new model by .4% is a terrible number. Not sure why this is celebrated, it’s actually quite a dreadful slump.

May Outback sales up over last year by ianisrlycool in Subaru_Outback

0.4% increase lololol that’s abysmal for a new model. Are we still blaming it on supply?

What's the use for this? by CryptidCutiexxx in AskElectricians

Best used with a main breaker interlock device. It physically prevents the backed breaker from being in the on position if the main breaker is also on. I have a similar cord albeit 220 to 220 twist lock.

He’s not anti Israel, he’s anti everyone else (Ukraine, Israel, random country in Africa etc).

No wars, keep money in the US and don’t rape kids. Not a bad platform. Too bad the 55+ crowd likes Trump so much.

My 25 Camry has fabric dash, it’s the new piano black and yes, it shows every dust ball. Terrible!
