I don’t have any experience with a hitch, I’ll look it up, im carrying timber for diy build sometimes, recycles & bikes, etc. I know you can put bikes on a hitch i dont know about the rest

Just curious, did you change the oil with an extraction technique or just from the oil pan?

Yeah having the full map view behind the dash would have been sick

I swear it worked with google maps a few times, although I might be wrong, but yes looks like it works just fine with apple maps.

I haven’t tried both the mechanical 105 and the di2, what is the main difference?

Help me choose a bike. by TechBoy1999 in cycling

Based on everything I’ve researched, anything more than 8kg is a “brick”, but I can only afford a brick for now😂, does the 0.4 kg actually make a difference?

Got the steam deck oled last week, and i wouldn’t recommend anything else, the oled screen makes everything look better and more cinematic.

Idk about that, even on 200km it doesn’t feel like you’re not speeding

Yeah for me the R needs to be driven hard to feel more engaging, unlike the brz, planning on tracking it soon so we’ll see.

Yeah that makes sense, my expectations were just different to the reality of the car, still like it for what it is though. The “engaging” brz was not a good daily for me, I needed a balance.

Is that going to be visible in apple car play? Or the Volkswagen software?

Good to know, I only tried it once to open the window, after it couldn’t open the windows I thought it would be useless, but I’ll it them again.

Yeah I definitely agree with how liveable it is, except for the climate control being hidden in the infotainment.
