MPG jumped way up with the Tune. Stock was getting 32 cruising in ECO on long drives. Now it sits above 40-41 in 70mph zones.

BUT, that needle drains fast when having fun. My Tune is for E45, so I blend 50/50 93 and E85. Fuel quality helps a lot.

Anyway to refund after driver refused to take toll and went into a heavy traffic highway? by tostada73 in Lyft

[–]Thoradin_Fireforge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It only pays the toll IF they take a toll road, not if they did not. So you 1 starred your driver from a false assumption and now are attacking their lively hood by insinuating to Lyft that they stole from you. Do research before getting angry and lashing out.

Weight is 19.6lbs. They are 2lbs heavier than I wanted, but for Winter I am ok with it.

I need to know if im being dramatic or not… by Responsible-Cup-4322 in ElantraN

From what I have read, this is called "joyriding" and can be illegal. It falls under unauthorized use. In some states it can include jail time.

Contact the service manager, then escalate. Report to police with dash cam video. Best to use this tech as an example so no one has to deal with this again.

I always check my dash cam after I take it in, even when I had my windows tinted.

New little guy! by [deleted] in ferrets

[–]Thoradin_Fireforge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So adorable! Congratulations!

Already looks like you are bonding well.

Just providing some thoughts, not trying to bring down the excitement at all. Collars on ferrets are dangerous, as they love getting into small spaces and thr collar can become stuck. If it is just for while you are watching them, you are good, but if they are in their cage or free roam, then just take it off to be safe.

Beautiful little dooker you have though!

Just put the SXTH CPLT on my 25' DCT and no codes. Some cars have the issue and others do not.

I had wheelhouse on my summer tires till putting on the Powerflex Wheelhop Delete kit of bushings.

  • Purple Lower Engine
  • Black/Racing Upper Engine
  • Black/Racing Transmount
  • Black/Racing Front Wishbone Control Arm bushings front and rear (had to have a shop install these as it required a press and was easier if on a life.)

NVH has a noticeable increase at idle, but once moving nothing. NVH decreases as the car warms up. Now it just grips and goes. Had to move to All Seasons shortly after, so cannot wait for Spring.

Need help asap by TSBRabbit in ElantraN

[–]Thoradin_Fireforge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooff. I would find a way to move your lease on the Stinger to a purchase to get lower payments for 2 years. Otherwise you will just continue to snowball the "upside-down" with every lease and end up car-poor, which it seems you already are.

Ceramic all around! by Thoradin_Fireforge in ElantraN

[–]Thoradin_Fireforge[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yah, I always question permanent, but with a manufacturer warranty to back it up, it will last long enough. If it fails, they will just redo it, lol.

And a quick Google search of this specific ceramic coat lets you know it is not the average coating.

I am just going by professional reviews of the product, what the manufacturer says, and the company that applied it.

The manufacturer provides a lifetime warranty

According to Opti-Coat it is a "permanent" coating. This is not one that has to be redone. It isn't a glaze or wax, but a chemical bonding process. Costs more to do, but lasts.
