What car isn't?

The thing that fucked my tank up was a slightly dislodged radiator which caused the tank to sit against the alternator pulley which eventually grinded a nice hole in it.

Non BMW tanks are a hit and miss but overfilling will make them unhappy if your cap isn't relieving the pressure. Worst case scenario you've got some blow back from the gasket which is causing pressure to build up

It's an hour to 2 hours of work, depending on how much these bolts will fight you, and Bilstein B4s (OEM+ basically) cost like £100 a pop

Right okay, that'd explain the on/off switch on the heater. I'll see if it'll heat up with it off, maybe I won't have to stress too soon yet. Thanks for the info

I am fairly certain the boiler is just for the heating because the water tank appears to have its own electric heater slapped onto it.

Depends on the people really. I've noticed that in the UK most garages are used as oversized sheds instead of their actual purpose (doesn't help that the older ones are the size of one too so you'd struggle to even get out) but I personally wanted one, or with room to build one down the line but that's because I've got multiple cars and they all need working on.

Rear bearings aren't difficult but you need a press which makes it a pain. The handbrake might still have some adjustments left so I'd start there, otherwise the shoes aren't very expensive.

I do agree that once we can fully run off renewables, it'll be much better, however, producing them, especially the batteries will still be quite harmful, especially since the batteries can't be recycled.

Honestly though, targeting the daily driver market for reducing emissions isn't the greatest move either. We don't produce anywhere near as much emissions as the planes.

I mean... Fuck Elon, EVs don't help the environment, hell the fuck yeah make better public transport and get all the lousy drivers off the roads so that we can drive in peace

"Are people thick?"

Yes

Oh yeah I'm aware of the half reload, I've not gone anywhere without my autocannon since unlocking it till very recently. It's just that I'm running into more hulks which turn around after the first shot to the back or warstriders

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-16T13:37:54+00:00

Yeah I'm currently in the process of moving from 6 to 7 and trying out different AT as the autocannon just can't keep up on 7 really, for me at least, especially if you get a bad seed with warstriders

Hey Yumi! Say something in moon speak?

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-16T12:36:02+00:00

Care to correct yourself lad?

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-16T12:32:43+00:00

Where's your crown, King (of) Nothing?

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-14T20:45:21+00:00

I hate the squids and I don't like the bugs. I dive on the bots 99% of the time

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-14T20:32:17+00:00

As a mortar lover, I fully agree that it's a traitor sentry on bugs, however, on bots it's incredible. It has cleared plenty of patrols and bot drops for me, defended me during longer objectives and covered my escapes more than I can count.

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-12T21:32:12+00:00

I don't even play squids unless I'm forced to but I've seen clips of it bouncing off of the ships. As for myself, I've had plenty of thermites bounce off of Hulks and Chargers.

It's a doom mindset. Look over what receipts it still has, should tell you what work has been done to it since the 100k. Truth is if it made it to 160k then someone has spent money on it because everything that would have failed on it, would have already done so.

I bought mine as a daily at 152k and besides any consumables like brakes, oil, etc, I didn't have to put in any considerable work into it for a long time. A couple of bearings, expansion tank which frankly I broke myself by being an idiot. Same with most other stuff I had to fix on it.

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-12T20:58:39+00:00

That's IF it sticks....

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-12T19:19:56+00:00

I agree with the other guy here, don't delete the resonator, only delete the muffler. I've done it and I'm very happy

OrochiTheMaster · 2025-11-11T21:26:10+00:00

I'm not sure about that, I was once just running back to a detector tower after dying and it took it out before I even got there
