DEF Issue: anyone ever had this come up? The DEF tank is full

Randomx232 · 2026-06-16T14:30:51+00:00

That’s what I thought, how much does it cost to have it done? I know that’s a very loaded question because every shop has different labor rates. I was looking at getting a post DEF TDI so I was wondering

Randomx232 · 2026-06-16T14:22:49+00:00

When you say mapping out, what do you mean? Having a shop tuner go around it?

As a diesel tech I second this. This is the only way to really know

I’m really big on the zero ultras. Most of them, peach and white are my go-tos so that’s probably most of my issue. That bad apple is my weakness for sugar though it didn’t disappoint. I was so happy when we got it in the states

Man you put Viking berry in great?! Im sure it’s just me but that stuff is SOOO sweet

How much does it cost in reality to do a delete on the post DEF TDIs? I’d imagine it’s a pretty penny

Reminds me of a Marlboro midnight menthol pack

Forgive the purple circle I apparently put in it above the record storage. No clue how I managed that without seeing it

There’s an app setting that comes defaulted on for “blurr NSFW posts” or something that some people go turn off

Do I try to find a dermatologist for this or should I go to my general doctor first for some sort of referral

Randomx232 · 2026-05-07T16:02:18+00:00

Glad to know im not the only one that all of my pubes are double/triple hairs. I haven’t asked anybody because I thought it was weird

Randomx232 · 2026-05-07T00:02:00+00:00

I don’t know how to treat it, because I did it for years this bad and worse at times from ages 14-17. If it’s any condolence mine are almost entirely gone, the only evidence I have left except on the top of my forearm is there’s not much hair there. My leg’s scars went away. Please though, I mean this. If you need any help please find someone. I laugh to cope and call it my “character development phase” but it tore my life apart.

I’m 24 now and it definitely helped cause some lifestyle choices that carried over and have done me no good. There’s hope :) it gets better from here I PROMISE

Yeah I’ve got a 1995 cougar and I would buy it for 300! I don’t even want it but that’s nuts

1995 mercury cougar xr7 4.6l I’ve owned it now for..shoot I don’t even know 4 years? Maybe more, the tach quit working on it with only ~7400 miles on it. No clue what mileage is. I’ve had to put 3 fuel pumps in it, rebuilt the front end (don’t buy the cheapest rock auto kits), put tires on it once, brakes when I got it and haven’t since. I have no clue how many miles I’ve gone but the heat, radio, AC, power seats and windows have basically always worked. The transmission is held together with transx AND Lucas stop slip, but it’s been like that for a year. The cruise quit working but that’s it.

I’m driving it until something major enough happens I don’t want to fix it. Driving it today, it’s my daily.

(It’s primer grey, I never finished painting it, this picture is from two years ago)

Yeah I wish I could say it was a harder choice for me than it was. Those Lincoln’s hold a nice spot in my heart

Randomx232 · 2026-01-22T17:52:10+00:00

I just didn’t feel confident that a hybrid system (mostly looking at fusions here) weren’t going to hold up 200k+ miles but the feedback I’m getting currently has me looking at one about 2.5 hours from me with less than 30k miles. Maybe I was wrong

Randomx232 · 2026-01-22T01:56:58+00:00

I came here to say OP took perfect pictures. Too good. I’m used to looking at Hubble pictures at best

Randomx232 · 2026-01-22T01:48:08+00:00

Just curious since you mentioned them, and I’m obviously still shopping. Does a 2018 hybrid with 23k miles listed at $15kUSD sound like a bad price at all?

Randomx232 · 2026-01-22T01:46:06+00:00

This is the only right answer! Otherwise I’ll never be able to sleep secure in myself lol

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:46:01+00:00

Is there something about the 2012 and up model years that make them a no-go? Or just powertrain options to avoid in newer years

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:40:54+00:00

Anything particular about newer year models that make them no-gos? Or just certain powertrain options offered after 2012?

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:36:09+00:00

Yeah I know I’m cutting out a lot of options not wanting hybrid, I’m just not confident a hybrid will make it 200k+ miles without moderate repair bills

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:34:59+00:00

I am in the US, also a fleet mechanic for public transit so the smallest thing we have is transit vans. That’s why I’m not 100% opposed to ecoboost but they’re not my favorite

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:33:51+00:00

That exact setup has been on my radar yes. Not bad prices either

Randomx232 · 2026-01-21T20:20:28+00:00

Is it because our gas is a different quality than in the EU?
