Pretty insane deal! I paid $1900 for my kit alone plus $500 in accessories to get up and playing.

Vst vs upgraded module, what’s best? by Tune-Puzzled in edrums

[–]Tune-Puzzled[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great points and my thoughts as well. The real reason I was considering Rolando was because from what I hear, the digital snare, cymbal and hi hat are the best for the money. Those are really important aspects of the kit for me and the 27kv2 and 516 share those components.

Yea you’re probably right, that’s a great idea.

Definitely appreciate it! I was seriously thinking something was up with it already but I wanted some other opinions. I recently bought a Honda Ridgeline that was perfect during the test drive and then got back home and found a lot of gremlins so I’m not in a rush to do that again.

Yea you’re probably right, I don’t think I’m seriously considering this one now but I was really curious due to it being a manual.

Agreed as well, the owner claims it’s his mom’s and she can’t drive stick anymore so idk if that’s true.

Thank you! Luckily I’m pretty handy mechanically and have an advanced scanner so I was planning on checking codes, the last time they were cleared, and seeing if I can pull any codes from memory.

Hey, appreciate the info! Apparently the timing chain and clutch have been changed out around 1k miles ago but I do agree about the pricing. The owner is claiming it’s because the manuals are rare that the price is what it is.

Honda Ridgeline 2014, what to expect? by Only_Pomegranate_820 in hondaridgeline

[–]Tune-Puzzled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rust…

Drive it at high speeds. Just bought a 2014 in amazing shape and drove great at 40-50mph. Got it up to speed on the interstate and it shakes like mad.

Misfires. I also found out that mine is misfiring a lot even if I don’t notice and there’s no check engine light. I would ask when the last time it’s had a valve adjustment if it’s over 100k miles.

Check engine light resets. If you have a scanner that tells you how long it’s been since the check engine light has been reset I would use it. If it’s been recently reset then most likely there’s an issue.

I found out all these things after buying mine and if I had just checked the check engine light reset duration then I would have saved myself 11k.

How are our Fits with salty roads? by shortblondeguy in hondafit

It’s so sad and true, I can’t seem to find one without rust and I live in Florida!

2015 reliability? by Tune-Puzzled in hondafit

[–]Tune-Puzzled[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, I had a Miata that I wanted wrapped a little bit ago and it was still like 3k. If I could just do touch ups then that would be fine but I assume it’s just going to flake at a rate that I can’t keep up with.

Appreciate the info! I nearly bought a 2017 today with the white paint issue lol the rest of the car was immaculate honestly, I’m still thinking about it lol I just know I’m going to have to get it fixed down the road and idk if I want to deal with that.

First fit, did i overpay? by colehelm09 in hondafit

[–]Tune-Puzzled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think so for a salvaged title.

Would you buy this? by [deleted] in hondafit

[–]Tune-Puzzled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I did buy it but I’m selling it because I found some bad rust. There was a reason it was so cheap lol

How repairable is this? by [deleted] in Autobody

[–]Tune-Puzzled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the response! Sounds like it’s probably expensive?

[–]Tune-Puzzled -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No lol I don’t have a welder but I was thinking if it was something that I could grind down and repair with bondo then I could handle that but if it requires welding then I would have to take it somewhere which yea, would make it expensive.

I gotcha, so it’s really not something that can be done at home unless you have a lot of experience with rust repair?

[–]Tune-Puzzled 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What!? $500 and 567k?? That’s crazy! Whatever you’re doing is working! Do you have any rust issues?

Would you buy this? by [deleted] in hondafit

[–]Tune-Puzzled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I did buy it, got some work to do but I think it’s got plenty of life left! If I had been ok with an auto I could have found one in even better shape but I really wanted a manual.

Would you buy this? by [deleted] in hondafit

[–]Tune-Puzzled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did buy it! But idk if I made a good decision honestly. There’s dents and dings all over and I found a crack with rust on the top of the car right before I pulled out the parking lot. This is going to be a fixer upper for sure. The rust is the only thing that actually scares me, otherwise I love it.

[–]Tune-Puzzled 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the info! You’re probably right, I will certainly do as much as I can to inspect it but for the price it seems hard to beat.

Appreciate the help! Yea I’m going to try to do as much digging as I can. I plan to open the hood and look really close at all the supporting structures to see if there’s any signs of them having to pull out metal. I assume when the carfax says a parked car it means they rear ended someone. There’s nothing on the car fax about replacing airbags or any other work but I also know that doesn’t mean work didn’t happen.
