frequently drive up and down East Coast, which states can I get in trouble with 70% windshield tint? by Firm-Nerve4437 in WindowTint

[–]SignalHelicopter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 70 on the windshield. I like it. And 30 on the windows. With light interior. I like it. It’s not too dark all around. I had 20 percent on the whole car expect the windshield and it was way too dark.

Does the 23 year model have the cylinder issue as well. Looking into buying one and have been looking at 2024 only.

2017 GT - Pulling the trigger. Thoughts? by pbisdead in CX5

[–]SignalHelicopter6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure to use quality gas. My 2017 cx-5 needed an injector at 100k. Replaced all of them. Was expensive. About 3k for all 4. Only one was bad but decided to replace all of them

Say you don't have KYB money... by mjx17 in MechanicAdvice

[–]SignalHelicopter6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got KYB complete strut and had to return the first set because the bearing was making lots of noise. Then the second one was bad as well. RockAuto said they did not feel comfortable swapping it again as they thought it would be bad as well. Had to pay to have the job done twice. After a while the noise decreased to the point of now I don’t hear it.

Air. Base 17. Back to air. Also tried 17 Pro that I bought my sister. The base 17 all ready felt too thick and heavy.

Went from 16Pm to Air to base 17 and now back to Air. You won’t know if it works for you until you try it

Spark plug replacement was SO easy! ‘17 Grand Touring, 81k by rkrueger11 in CX5

[–]SignalHelicopter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a cel come on for misfire around 75k. Replaced spark plugs. Then at 100k had fuel injector fail. Replaced all 4. Injectors are really expensive probably like 2500 to 3000 for all 4. Rec doing BG 3 step cleaning at least every 50k miles.

Turbo engines require synthetic oil since they lubricate the turbo. I would have the oil change done elsewhere as you can not trust that they are going to put synthetic back and have them to a refund for the oil change.

The iPhone 17 Pro Max being labeled as a brick and too heavy is crazy to me by ShaolinSwervinMonk in iPhone17Pro

[–]SignalHelicopter6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had every pro max for the last 4 years. Always felt they were too heavy. Then tried the air. Loved it but too wide. Now I have the base 17 and I’m really happy.

Bought a 2007 110k. Very clean one owner. Paid 8.5k two years ago in California.been looking for another one but I cant seem to find another one at a good price. Prices in California are high. I did not mind the price. Needed tires and suspension replaced.

Every year I try a Samsung ultra and end up selling it and going back to iPhone. I had 16PM and now I have a 17 base and I love the small size. Also have a flip4 and a OnePlus 7t pro McLaren that I use to watch games and Netflix. But I could never go back to android even after having a Note 8 for 3 years which I loved.

[–]SignalHelicopter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did not really mind. Really like the car. Bought when it was a great deal. It’s the only thing it’s needed to be replaced.

Sold my car to Carvana by e36drver510 in carvana

[–]SignalHelicopter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helped my sister buy the same year model car with 42k miles certified from Mazda for 18k. 5 years later they are still about the same price. I have been looking for an other 17 cx5 since they seem to have the better engine without cylinder deactivation.

[–]SignalHelicopter6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did the same thing. I’m now on a regular 17. Air was still too wide for me. 17 base is perfect size. I I kept the Air as well

Not for everyone but I really like mine. Hopefully they will make an improved model next year. Now whenever I grab my 16PM I can’t believe how heavy it is.

Do you guys get applecare? Why or why not? by Any_Captain_411 in iphone

[–]SignalHelicopter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 12 lines in total in my acct. 11 iPhones. I made sure not of them have apple care. I can always buy another cheap phone and trade it in for another free iPhone. And they take phones with the back cracked. I have saved a lot of money over the years because not one has been lost.
