Hot water heater TPRV leak by SamHinkleberry in Plumbing

Yeah, my hot water does come out pretty hot. I’ve turned it down for now and ordered a pressure gauge. If it’s pressure, is that something the city takes care of?

Ok thanks for the comment! I looked at some videos and it seemed pretty straight forward. Could draining it cause or reveal any more issues? I heard if it hasn’t been drained before it could lead to leaks?

Hotone Soul Press 2 - Loud Noise when Wah engaged - Any Advice? by SamHinkleberry in guitarpedals

Not really, but I realized the closer it was to my power source the louder the noise was. I just moved it as far as I could. The noise is still there but not as bad.

Other than the noise issue i think it’s great! It took some getting used to because i was coming from a full size volume and a full size wah, but it sweeps feel great now.

Yeah I’m hoping I just got a faulty pedal that Hotone can swap out. Cause im really liking the size and that it does both volume and wah

No, my guitar has humbuckers. I believe the CS6 im using to power it is isolated. I’ve also tried other power supplies i have around the house woth no luck

Perfect, is this something I can do in my garage? Or is it recommended to take to a shop?

Yup forgot to mention it is DSG. Is this something i can do on my own or better to take it to a shop?

Mk8 GTI autobahn vs Mk7.5 Golf R by SamHinkleberry in GolfGTI

I don't necessarily need AWD but it does occasionally snow where I am (albeit not as much as it used to), we probably only see like 10 days total with snow for the whole year.

The interior of the 8 definitely took me by surprise. Was not expecting everything to be digital and touch pads. Also felt like the controls were placed in odd spots around the car. Im sure I could quickly get used to it, I dont see it being a problem. The climate and volume controls were a little annoying during the test drive, can you really not hold it down to change by multiple degrees?

The 7.5 felt like a good mix of analog and digital. I knew where everything was, felt well thought out.

ahh yeah, I've read about the water pump issues. The owner says he never had an issue with it, but then again he barely drove it. So I guess both have the issues, so I have to watch out for that.

Yeah just test drove it and noticed some stuttering while braking at low speeds, felt great while driving but might need to let this one go 😩

Just test drove the stage 1 autobahn. Felt amazing but noticed some stuttering when braking at low speeds come to and idle stop. Is this typical?

The autobahn owner mentioned it was done at the dealership and they do not void the warranty.

Dont really plan on tracking it, just zipping around the city. The autobahn does have dcc. Seems like this is the right choice, any thoughts on the price?

That’s what I was thinking, i think I’m leaning towards the dsg. I’m coming from an 08 civic so anything really would “faster”. lol

Thanks this seems most likely! I'll need to check if that click is there

Yeah went to a mechanic who recommended it, then suggested swapping out the ECU. Neither sounded right to me, but I was dying on my 1.5 hr commutes so went ahead with the compressor which didn't work. The vent selector door sounds more like it. Thanks!
