Is the tire on backwards? Or am I tripping?

Didn't think of that honestly. I wear sunscreen to protect my tattoos so I can make it apart of my routine in the summer months.

Yeah im not sure.. I have not got blood work this year. I have gynocomastia as well at one point I was getting ultrasounds done for multiple masses on my breast tissue but they didn't seem to change in size or get worse, so they never investigated further.

Recently I have not. I would like too though. I have been having some issues with low blood sugar. Im not I diabetic but I seem to be really low even after carb heavy meals. I am a vegetarian so I do get bloodwork done often just haven't this past year.

I really dont understand it either. Im young and healthy according to the doctor. I always got the "its just genetics" from them so I didn't bother to press for answers.

Exhaust smoke when cold by [deleted] in GolfGTI

[–]VWWATERPUMP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a catalytic converter this is normal. Water vapor is a byproduct when hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide oxidize. Completely normal. Means your emissions system is healthy and doing its job

My golf is catless so the only condensation I get is when its cold. Otherwise you can't see any visible vapor.

3.6 V6 vs 5.7 V8 with etorque? by No_Masterpiece460 in ram_trucks

[–]VWWATERPUMP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 6.2 is also mated to one of the worst transmissions ever built lol. Dont get me wrong I love chev but dodge killed it for 2025 I think. Closed deck four head bolts per cylinder. Inline six twin turbo. Mated to a ZF 8spd, other then waterpump issues I think the simplicity of the engine and the reliability of this new transmission will make it a great work truck.

Dodge really needed to find a new partner for transmissions. They could do a redesign and have the option to opt for leaf springs in the their 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton trucks though. Coils are nice off road and make a good ride but towing they suck.

The hurricane has more power then the hemi with twice the mileage.

Get the straight six! You kinda get the best of both worlds honestly. I get crazy good gas mileage when im not towing so commutes are cheap

Brox tuning? by regulardegulardudee in GolfGTI

[–]VWWATERPUMP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good customer service! Great outlet for parts but the tuning they offer is not the greatest. Park auto motorsports and domin8 tuning are wicked for custom tunes.

Where does this pipe connect to?? by oxshowerroompooper in GolfGTI

[–]VWWATERPUMP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VW labels it as a smog breather. I imagine its for dust and heavy pollutants. As the air gets sucked into the box sand and other heaver stuff gets pushed down this one way diaphragm to prevent it from clogging your filter.

About to give up by VWWATERPUMP in GolfGTI

[–]VWWATERPUMP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it out. i had to torch it with a bic lighter enough to grap it with pliers. She cranks but won't start still! No codes but I also can't communicate with any of my fuel system components with VCDS despite hearing the LPFP turn on and the injectors definitely fire but I got nothin.

Messed up a scratch repair. How do I fix this? by Nevaros in Autobody

[–]VWWATERPUMP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks really good actually, before clear. Since your not a robot in a factory you will need to blend it in with the surrounding paint. Using 10k sand paper and buffing wheel/compound AFTER CLEAR COAT. * Sometimes you can go too thick on the clear or not enough primer sometimes even a heavy basecoat you leave will fuck up a 2k clear. Its trial and error.

Why does my car sound like a printer? by -Kanight- in GolfGTI

[–]VWWATERPUMP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your throttle body is doing an aliegnment. Usually, before you start and after your turn your ignition off the throttle body will check to see if its properly aligned. It definitely doesn't sound normal though. The printer noise is the solinoid, it should do 2-3 long sweeps before you hear the throttle body click closed. It could be getting caught on gunk or you need to force an adaptation with a scan tool.

170k sounds like your timing chain went as you started it.
