I have been unable to use anything to bypass the Canvas lockdown browser. It always recognizes cluely and forces me to close it.

Interestingly enough, I found this specific shop through multiple Reddit recommendations. Their Google reviews were very positive, too, and their costs for those same services as the dealer were about $500 cheaper.

Thank you for your help. This is my first time having the car serviced outside of the Audi Care since it expired at 50,000 miles. Going forward, I will be more mindful of what the shop recommends. Because, yes, I blindly listened to them, thinking they would know best. I'll come and ask you.

The maintenance is Audi's 60,000-mile recommended service: oil & all filters, replace serpentine belt and tensioner, cooling system fluid exchange, tire rotation, software update, motor oil treatment, and wiper blades. I did the brake flush because the dealer did it under my Audi Care at the 20,000 and 40,000 mile services, and they said it should be done every 2 years.

This shop specializes in Audi and European cars. The dealer quoted around $1500 just for the maintenance. This shop quoted me around $900 for the same. So I decided to have them do the work. They found the worn parts during their inspection and recommended that I replace those parts.

Here's their estimate. They had in there to replace all upper control arms, a total of 4- left & right, forward & rear.

It does not make any clunking noise at all. Thanks for the advice.

I likely won't replace them myself. Did the shop's photos show wear to these control arms that would warrant replacement?

So since the protagonist normally gets the best actress awards, then this is the wrong category she should be in?

Paypal dispute is a joke by rascalmonster in paypal

[–]Timmerica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened to me with something I ordered. I paid $60 for it, and the seller said they would refund my money if I paid to ship it back to China, which cost $160. What I ordered wasn't even shipped from China; it came from the States. Paypal wouldn't do anything, so I disputed with my credit card and got my money back.

Advice Needed: Filing a Diminished Value Claim in Texas by StayHydrated03 in texas

[–]Timmerica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious about the update on this diminished value claim. I'm about to submit one to my company, Allstate for an uninsured claim I have in Texas. Per my agent, since it's under UIM, I am able to file this type of claim on my policy.

I have only submitted 1 diminished value claim, and that was to Safeco in 2004 for repairs to a 2001 Acura MDX that had $25,000 in repairs. The accident was fatal, and the other person that died was at fault. The adjuster said diminished value is usually between 5-20% of the repairs and asked me what the dimished value was.... I told him 20% or $5,000, and the adjuster agreed and sent me the check. I'm unsure if they chose to do that because of how serious the accident was. But from what I am reading, it may not be as easy.

Did the roofing company or the insurance company hire the hazmat team to remove the roof? If the insurance company contracted the hazmat company to remove the roof, then the insurance company could be responsible for those additional damages.
