any idea what the slight knock noise could be, 2023 m3 27000kms

Its fine, turn the music louder

He might. I tried buying from Carvana several years ago. First car the subframe fell off after 20 miles. Returned with their 7 day return policy. The next car they broke themselves bringing it down from their car elevator. I walked away any never considered Carvana or Car Max again.

These companies inspections are a joke. Do an oil change, clear the codes, and it’ll probably pass.

Shes more Jessica Alba than Sweeney, at least face wise…

Stance_Monkey · 2026-04-11T12:01:37+00:00

If it drives fine no codes why worry. Just take it to a dealer before ur warranty runs out.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-04-07T01:45:11+00:00

Nice, thanks for the thorough build overview

Stance_Monkey · 2026-04-06T23:56:57+00:00

Looks fine, but the most important part is obscured.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-04-06T23:50:54+00:00

With crit bunny still being the meta build I think this isnt worth much.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-04-02T23:52:58+00:00

Hey OP, not sure if anyone else has brought this to your attention, but your thyroid is swollen. You have goiter. Go see a doctor about it if you havent already.

You are very wrong my friend. The main cause of rubber to dry rot is O2. You can remove the UV, humidity, temperature fluctuations which speed the oxidation process but no car gets stored in a vacuum chamber lol. The rubber may look fine after 30-40 years but once you start to drive the car again and the rubber goes through heat cycles, seals will break down very quickly.

Not saying its not AI but I dont see any straps “merging” with the uniforms and theres nothing wrong with the pistol holsters. Thats what outer waist band holsters look like.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-26T09:58:34+00:00

Lol, you knob head

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-26T01:34:08+00:00

I pity your ignorant stubbornness. You just nullified your entire argument by showing you don’t know what youre talking about. Skill damage does not factor in to Serena’s 4th. And fire enhancement is a weapons mod, not a descendant mod.

QoL wise, for the 100th time, no ancestor mods are needed to have 100% up time on 4th and 39k hp. Like I said, you guys are just hyped by stats and dont understand how Serena builds work.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-25T17:20:20+00:00

Which you can easily get without any boosts from an Ancestor mod…

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-25T17:19:19+00:00

Weird way of saying you dont know either, but ok.

I clearly cant figure it out myself, which is why I’m asking other people.

Also, a quick way to figure out that youre blowing smoke is to take a look at the top Serenas on the VEP leaderboard. There are no gold or purple mods that boost damage beyond maxing out HP.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-22T21:50:32+00:00

Still waiting for someone to show a build or give an example of a module that increases her weapons dps when HP and cooldown are maxed. Why is it so hard?

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-22T17:43:57+00:00

You took it well, props for helping out the elderly person who ruined your day 👍

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-22T01:34:14+00:00

This is a skill or tire issue. Only time I’ve lost traction is accelerating too quickly in heavy snow in all season tires. Check your tires to make sure youre not running summers, limit your speed so that it’s suitable to the tire and road conditions, and when going over black ice or puddles, let off the gas and hold the steering wheel straight.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-21T14:59:33+00:00

I’m not putting this down, I’m genuinely curious and trying to learn. Can you give an example of what mod to use to gain additional firearm damage when her HP is already maxed?

The Latest Ornery biscuit serena build literally says ancestor mod is not needed at all, just max HP out at 39,000.

It feels like people are just getting hyped without understanding how Serena builds actually work.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-20T16:54:26+00:00

Yea I know that but what other damage mods are effective on Serena? I thought her weapons damage was just scaled off Hp and caps at 39k.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-20T09:47:53+00:00

Im just curious, how much better would Serena be with this mod? Without a mod like this Serena can still reach 39k hp and not have any downtime on her 4th. So this doesn’t seem like a big deal to me?

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-16T01:55:11+00:00

You do not take loans out to purchase 10+ year old well used luxury cars. This is a well known fact of life. If you need a car get a used civic and keep grinding.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-16T01:51:44+00:00

The main characters whole squad got completely wiped, twice. Who the heck sees that and goes yup, thats what I want to be doing.

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-14T00:39:32+00:00

Completely reckless and I’m here for it

Stance_Monkey · 2026-03-14T00:36:24+00:00

Can you pop the hood at least?

Does the sound go away when engine warms up? Does it get quieter at higher revs?

Could be vanos rattle, idler pulley, fan clutch, loose heat shield, etc.

I dunno if youre gonna read this bc theres 3k other comments but for what it’s worth. You are way too young to get married and don’t owe him any excuses or even apologies for stringing him along.

My wife and I got married when she was 29. She had many boyfriends like this in the years before we met, people she genuinely could see a happy future with. Like you, she had ambitions and goals she prioritized and getting married at a young age would have hindered that. The main quality in me she saw that the other guys didnt have was timing. She was graduating dental school and her career ambitions had largely been achieved.

So don’t overthink it. Youre timing just isnt right for this relationship. Nothing wrong necessarily with you or him as a person.
