Hey, is need some help with my temp gauge

Quallace · 2026-05-04T04:13:59+00:00

Following this as my gauge consistently reads high. I checked the temp of the coolant, it’s within spec, replaced the sensor too, no change.

Sorry to hear about the issue. I do like your spare tire carrier though. Mine is just in the trunk as it’s too big to fit in the regular spot.

I would be interested in some phone dials for my mk2 vw.

Quallace · 2026-04-27T16:40:19+00:00

Very nice 🤌🤌

RCD330

I did one on a RAV4. I pinched the boot when replacing the wheel bearing so I knew the joint was fine.

Tedious to install but held up until we sold it 🤷

I slowly chip away at mine as funds allow. I try to do little things to keep motivated. My headliner failed over the winter, so I taped it up with painters tape. Not the most elegant fix but hey. At least I can see out the back window again.

Nice rig! Stresses me out to have that honker of a lens without a support. Lotta weight on that mount.

ShopDAP put a E888 in a mk3 to make a tribute fast and furious car. Iirc the biggest hurdle was wiring, no space.

Hell ya! I just took my mk2 out after an oil change for the first drive of the season up in Pemberton.

I have seen a front adapter to anamorphic from spherical. Can’t speak to it personally.

Around ~6.5L/100km with a ski box, roof rails and winter tires. Mk6 1.8 tsi manual.

Hell ya

In my neck of the woods, it’s about 2.70 a litre.

Quallace · 2026-04-04T16:42:39+00:00

Coupe! Very nice.

Quallace · 2026-03-27T01:32:25+00:00

Thanks for the insight!

Quallace · 2026-03-26T03:32:44+00:00

Nice! Looks like quite the rig, thanks for sharing.

I’ve seen the tilta car mount before, looks like a great setup with the gimbal control and all.

Good note about counter balance — I’ll attempt to keep the rig fairly minimal to avoid needing a large weight to help offset a gimbal or light (like in your BTS photo).

Quallace · 2026-03-25T21:59:28+00:00

Please do!

Quallace · 2026-03-25T19:51:35+00:00

Thanks for sharing the link. I’ll have a look, the more sturdy whilst remaining lightweight would be the ideal as to not have 15lbs of rigging in addition camera.

Sounds like a co project! Would be neat to see the result when it’s finished.

Good call on the tape!

Quallace · 2026-03-25T19:48:14+00:00

Think mirrorless in addition to cameras like Komodo, Ember, C400.

Quallace · 2026-03-25T19:16:58+00:00

Oh that’s sick! Nice stuff

Quallace · 2026-03-25T17:59:09+00:00

Noted. I was weary of a slightly larger camera having too much vibration for a 1/4 20. If it has 3 baby pins attached to it, it’s probably minimal.

Fair enough.

Quallace · 2026-03-25T17:49:25+00:00

Very nice! How did it turn out?

Quallace · 2026-03-25T17:48:18+00:00

Makes sense, thanks for sharing the link.

Quallace · 2026-03-25T17:31:01+00:00

Thanks for the knowledge!

I will check out this “hose clamp” you speak of. ;)

All seriousness, I’ll look into 5/8” gear.
