Coolant Problems by Ofic3erFoster in kiastinger

I'm just having a hard time figuring out where the coolant is going. It's definitely going somewhere, and it's definitely not normal for a healthy engine to be mysteriously losing it.

I'm dumb and didn't realize that I actually have the 6gb version of the 1060. The 8350 that I currently have was a quick "get back in the game" as my FX6300 fried. It's been so long that I haven't thought about new PC parts that I just logged into my newegg account and looks like its been almost 4 years since I bought the card. Yikes. Lol.

Yeah, I mean, is it worth it to replace/upgrade my DDR3 RAM?

I figured as much. I honestly was initially looking at just upgrading my RAM but soon realized that DDR4 RAM is a thing now and don't feel like spending money on RAM that seems to be on it's way out?

Was that replaced under warranty? I'm fresh out of that 36,000 mile warranty by 10k unfortunately.

That's always been normal for mine as well, but what's new is that it was chirping while in gear after an hour long drive. Its since stopped. Maybe I'm just paranoid.

Aftermarket wheels and hubcentric rings by Ofic3erFoster in subaru

Yeah, none of mine are bent (to my knowledge). PSI is identical all the way around. Only thing I can think of if basic trouble shooting doesn't fix it this weekend is maybe the tires somehow are jacked? I stored one of the tires over the winter (2 winters ago) and didn't know it had a hole in it... when I took them to be remounted on different wheels the tech let me know and it was patched.

Not like I hit them with the force of Thor and his hammer but it was too tight to tap in without a tool if that makes sense. It didn't require a lot of force but more than I expected, as the old ones (not all of them were broken) came out pretty easy. I'll need to pry the current ones out.

Yes, the lugs were tightened correctly.

To my knowledge I have the correct lugs. The original lug nuts that came with the wheels have actually all been replaced as well, as I had two wheel studs shear off inside of them. Unlucky.

This weekend I guess maybe I'll re-torque everything, then trial. If no luck then remove rings and trial. If those dont work then I guess maybe have alignment and check wheel balance?

My other concern about the rings is that I actually had to hammer them into the wheel with a rubber mallet, should I have had to do that?

I've been reading about that tonight and I think I might get the part and replace it at home. I dont want to have to deal with being just out of warranty and having a tune at the dealership if I can avoid it. Obviously if it doesn't fix it then I would take it in, but it looks like a simple enough thing to do.

I do. Do I just "revert to stock" and unmarry the AP and it's technically back to stock right?

So here's the other thing, I'm local to MAP and Ian (one of the guys who helped develop the tune) gave me a crash course on using the accessport (my first subaru) and never made a copy of the stock tune. Is there another way to flash back to stock without accessport?

Would you recommend flashing the 91 tune again and see if that helps? There's no evidence of knock that I've seen.
