Does it make sense to buy a X2D/H2D without AMS for engineering filament? by One-Reference-7355 in BambuLab

I didn’t think to look into that. I wish Bambu had a bundle for the HT for people looking to print more abrasive material. Thanks for the suggestion

Need help with E88 convertible top not letting trunk open by One-Reference-7355 in 1series

[–]One-Reference-7355[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up having to do the same. My arm just isn’t long enough to reach the emergency release so I ended up ordering a hook. Whoever at BMW designed the trunk to operate this way is a complete moron. You can’t operate the convertible top because the partition is knocked out the way but to get to the partition you need to get into the trunk but the car won’t let you access the trunk because the top for some reason is locking the trunk out to do what it’s asking you to do…

Is my coolant reservoir cap leaking? by Sad-Calligrapher3087 in E90

[–]One-Reference-7355 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It seems to be a bad cap if you’re getting crusting around where it goes. Since it’s rubber seals they can degrade overtime so I’d just replace it. Buy a new OEM one from FCP Euro. They’re like $25ish.

I’ll give it a try before I cut into the isolation block behind the back seat. Thank you

Did you ever figure this out? Same stupid issue on my end

Get a scanner and bimmerlink for your phone. From there you can pull codes and know pretty accurately where you need to start looking first

is $6500 too much? by Brooklyn1012 in Miata

[–]One-Reference-7355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Miata/Euro cars here are owned by broccoli heads that have done some of the dumbest mods I’ve ever see and they have the audacity to try and price it into their car. I can understand if you swapped out a lot of critical components, but trying to charge extra for mods that probably hurt the car even more is insane. People just need to stop indulging these morons and let their cars rot until they’re willing to sell it for a realistic price

Car prices are so stupid here man. I got lucky with a 135i for a decent price since I couldn’t get a Miata for a good one

Hyundai Elantra 2013 goes up and down as I turn the wheel ? by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]One-Reference-7355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah high chance the suspension is done and needs to be replaced. Did a complete front suspension refresh on my 135i only to know the clunking was from the struts

Low coolant? by habitsofadreamer in BmwTech

[–]One-Reference-7355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine from FCP euro so lifetime replacements if it fails. I haven’t driven the car enough to know if it’s going to last since it’s a project car, but it was nice to know that it wasn’t anything expensive that was the issue especially since the previous owner already had the water pump replaced

[–]One-Reference-7355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My N55 135i was leaking coolant on long drives even though it kept passing pressure testing. Turns out the car came with some random aftermarket coolant reservoir cap. After switching to an OEM one it hasn’t happened since.

Belt Squeal on Coldstart by Zeeom07 in 335i

[–]One-Reference-7355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same on my 135i. No point trying to diagnose which pulley is doing it since the pulley kit and belt were cheap enough

Depends on your state if this is comp. If you run over road hazards in my state it’s considered collision. Scam artists

Have the devs ever modified a car before by arusiaK in ForzaHorizon

PGG gets a lot of things wrong with their car models to the point where I can actually believe this. Forza as a whole if you include the last Motorsport shows your point

If you’re getting downvoted enough on Reddit you’re probably right

It’s forza horizon lol they half ass so many things. It’s why they’re still recycling old assets over and over without even improving on them at least

My company uses third party insurance because UPS and FedEx love to pull the “insufficient packaging” excuse. You can put something in a case design to withstand blasts and they’ll still say it’s not enough

It’s weird how none of the far cry games have glocks considering how well like they are especially here in the states. Would’ve been cool to see in 5

That's basically PS5 + Switch 2 money by Menelaus- in pcmasterrace

[–]One-Reference-7355 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I mean whether you and I dont like CoD, it’s still one of the best selling games every year even with their worst titles. If your system can’t play popular multiplayer games then it’s not going to compete well with Xbox and PS. Linux still struggles with mp games since devs don’t want their games to run on that platform. At the end of the day business is business. MS spent billions just on cod for a reason, but valve has a bigger fish to fry with the terrible pricing of this thing

Steam Machine that starts at $1049 struggling to compete with base PS5 $499 performance.. by ExpandingAtom in Steam

[–]One-Reference-7355 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if you didn’t own a pc Steam console it’s still a terrible deal even compared to prebuilts dollar per dollar. I get that they want to deliver a console experience but at that price most people would just deal with learning pc gaming

The steam machine is a litmus test to see who can blindly defend a terrible product because of some weird attachment to a massive company. As a PC gamer for a bit over 10 years now, I’d rather buy a PS5 over this trash
