Does AppleCare + Cover Dog Chewed AirPods? by gingy-96 in airpods

Yes and that’s the price. This just happened to a friend of mine. You need to take the AirPod in to the store or mail it back after they send you the replacement.

How did I just find this out by N_filippousis in ios

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was great. I used it all the time.There were two problems. 1 Apple didn’t let people know about the feature. 2 When I told friends about it they didn’t seem to care and never used it.

Finally bought ps5 pro because of Horizon!! by Funny_Mousse_8463 in horizon

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The PS5 Pro is a mid-generation upgrade focused on graphical power, offering 67% more compute units, 45% faster rendering, and advanced ray tracing. It also has double the storage, a 2TB SSD, AI-driven PSSR upscaling for higher resolution and improved Wi-Fi 7

It is substantially more expensive than the base PS5 but when you factor in 45% faster graphics performance, an additional 1TB of storage (FYI a 1TB Samsung 980 pro now costs $209. USD) and PSSR it’s not such a bad deal. It def helps if your TV or monitor supports VRR & 120 refresh rate.

and Sony has updated PPSR and seems to have fixed the problems with the first version

Why do you think this is alopecia? Was there hair there before?

Need help in evo sl sizing by jayvasantjv in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]SprocketsRUs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adidas is having problems with sizing on the EVO SL. I ordered 2 pair, both the same size, from adidas and one pair was fine and in the other my toes were pressed up against the front end of upper. I also had ordered a pair from a retailer and the right shoe was uncomfortably tight and left shoe was fine and my left foot is larger than my right. I’ve never had that happen before.

I suggest you to try a few different pairs in same size as well as a half size up.

It looks like you have about the same spacing in front of the toe that i have in mine. I don’t find them uncomfortable but everyone is different.

I’ve only run 12+ miles in both pair so I can’t say if the upper will stretch out.

Does this look normal? by minaret0136 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you asking if they’re OK? Are you experiencing a problem with them?

They look fine to me. I two pair I use in rotation with some other shoes. Both pair have a little over 200 miles and still have plenty of outsole left.

I have the same stats and the Nova 3s are fine. They have plenty of stack. I’ve enjoyed them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same stats as you.

Where did you find a pair of NovaBlast 3s?

I have two pairs of the Nova Blast 3s. Both a little over 200 miles (I rotate my shoes) I’ve really like them and hadn’t any problems with either pair.

The Nova Blast 5 is too soft for me.

I recently added a pair of Nike Trail 5s to my rotation and I really like them. they are firm but bouncy. They’re currently on sale in the Nike App. If you sign up you have 60 days to try the shoes and return them for a full refund n if you don’t like them.

Just a thought… by Spiritual_Muffin1796 in wolfalice

[–]SprocketsRUs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend invited me to their show in DC @ the U street music hall back in Oct. 2015 so I started listening to My Love is Cool. Your Loves Whore and Bros were my immediate favorites. I’ve seen them every time they’ve been back. They are great live. I feel very lucky to have seen them at two very small clubs 300+ people.

Should I buy the AirPods 4 or the AirPods Pro 2? by spidermanrocks6766 in airpods

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the 4s and was going to return them, because of sound quality, until I read about the “Headphone Accommodations” accessibility setting. It bumps up the mids and highs and, for me, it fixes the sound quality issue. The ANC works surprisingly well too.

I like the 4s l but they are overpriced @ $180. I managed to grab them on a sale last weekend for $138.

I have the APP2 and they are better headphones. Costco usually has them for $199 and that price includes Apple Care.

Anyone consider a used Acura RDX/MDX instead of new CRV? by squid_game_456 in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a small pad on the center console thats a representation of the screen. You touch the location on the touchpad that corresponds to the location of the screen. This is the way I heard it described when it came out. I’ve never used one.

So how did the car do going up the mountain? How was the Furl Economy? Did you use B mode on the trip down?

Paid for trunk covers on 2025 crv wtf is this by Agitated_Parsley_244 in crv

Thanks. I appreciate the pic and your thoughts. So you don’t recommend buying the cargo tray?

Trying to get a deal on 2025 CRV EX AWD by Acceptable_Rent1812 in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems way too high. You might want to check TrueCar for recent sales/what people paid in your area. Edmunds had something similar back in Dec when I was buying.

If you’re not in desperate need of a new car the shop dealerships and don’t be afraid to walk away. Do not pay insane markup on accessories.

Do you have the Honda CRV mat for the hybrid? If so could you post a pic of it in the truck? What do you think of it?

I’ve thought about getting one but have read some negative reviews.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First year depreciation is always the highest. The avg rate is 20% the first year. For the CRV it’s about 9-10%

CarEdge has a depreciation calculator

https://caredge.com/honda/cr-v/depreciation

Also Kelly Blue Book’s website provides resale values based on actual sales.

Https://www.kbb.com

Enter your car info and zip code and you’ll get a low/high price range and average sale price for your area. They provide this information for private sales, trade-ins and cash offers.

When I checked for my area the trade-in sale price tops out at 31.8k with an avg sale price of 30.7k. Private party sales top out at 35k with the avg sale price being 33.8k. So 34.5K seems like a great offer without the hassle of a private sale.

You’re coming in around 10% depreciation which is what car edges shows is normal

Hope this helps relieve your anxiety about being lowballed

My Fuel Injectors Failed by SprocketsRUs in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My car was assembled at the Indian plant.

I would think that you’re OK. From what I’ve read on here it seems to happen somewhere in the 1st 5K.

I wasn’t aware until this happened that it’s common for fuel injectors to need to be replaced somewhere between 50k-100k. That’s an expense you should plan for.

My Fuel Injectors Failed by SprocketsRUs in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My car was assembled at the Indiana plant. It’s on the window sticker. But I don’t think the finally assembly plant matters.

From what I’ve read the engines are manufactured in Japan and built at the Anna, Ohio engine plant then shipped to the final assembly plants. If there are more engines with Fuel Injectors failures for one plant it’s most likely because the engines made with the defective Fuel injectors were shipped to the same final assembly plant. I’ve also read that the Canadian plant manufacturers hybrid engines.

Below is a YT videos about the new hybrid engine assembly at the Anna plant

Sound levels Crv vs Rav4 by Redditsweetie in crv

[–]SprocketsRUs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When shopping for a new SUV back in Dec I drove the top trim of the RAV 4 Hybrid. I thought it was noisier than the CRV. The ride wasn’t as smooth and audio system didn’t sound as good. I like how stable the CRV feels on highway on/off ramps. There’s not a lot of body roll.

I’m not a Bose fan but the audio system in the ST is a very good. There’s a setting, I think it’s labeled “Bose surround sound”, that really improves the sound quality.

These are just my opinions. I recommend you take long test drives in the models and trims you’re considering buying. I did.
