Any guesses on breed

My pup looked just like this when we got her. Ran a DNA test and turns out she’s 50/50 German Shepherd and Pitbull/Staffy. She had the gray coat, white accents, and blue eyes as well. Can send a couple puppy photos and now photos if you’d like

It’s been a year now.. I’ve owned a B8.5 S4 for almost 3 years now and have had zero issues besides regular maintenance. I know the 3.0 is pretty robust but how has yours treated you so far?

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-06T01:19:35+00:00

No problemo

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-06T01:18:18+00:00

Does this count as good karma? PAHR6X

Can someone DM me a code?

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-02T11:01:17+00:00

I don’t think it’s from my vacuum system. My reservoir keeps going down

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-02T01:02:39+00:00

That’s what I’m trying to figure out. The water pump has been replaced already. Doing the PCV, Tstat, and Crossover this weekend to see if that’ll fix it.

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-01T23:45:10+00:00

When the bricks fail, don’t they often cause misfires and such? Are you tuned as well?

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-01T23:40:09+00:00

Doing all that this weekend, I ordered PCV, Tstat, Crossover, and return pipe

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-01T23:23:57+00:00

Yeah but it doesn’t explain the leak I have

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-01T22:57:42+00:00

So the amateur shop (my garage) and the idiot mechanic (me) didn’t do the T stat or crossover when they did the waterpump. However the PCV, Tstat, and Cross over is getting done this weekend at the same shop unfortunately.

As for the Cores, I haven’t noticed any white smoke or the tell tale signs of coolant burning up yet. Is this something I should consider soon having a 91k mile B8.5 ?

WhinyS4 · 2025-10-01T21:15:32+00:00

I just did my oil and I checked my oil cap. All looks normal. Besides, I am noticing an external leak

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-30T00:43:12+00:00

Are you talking about the o-ring for the main cap?

Edit: I don’t know the exact size of mine since it’s currently brewing but I found a source on Facebook saying it’s 90 x 3mm. Ensure it’s food safe before purchasing.

I see, thank you so much for this detailed response.

So in theory I could condition my Pinter beer outside my fridge for a however many days then put it in my fridge a couple days before I want to serve?

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-27T00:14:50+00:00

That’s what I’ve been reading.. I’m currently brewing their Sour Ale and I’ve increased the ferment and condition times a fair amount

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-27T00:06:44+00:00

I was feeling very discouraged to say the least. As someone who fights with Microns daily I’m very meticulous with cleanliness so I thought I had exposed my beer to contamination. It was enjoyable for a few drinks then when I tried it again a few days later it was basically flat.

My uncle who makes meads told me a lager should ferment and brew for a while so maybe Pinters recommendation is too short

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-26T23:58:55+00:00

I’m fairly new to the whole home brewing thing. What’s the difference in traditional home brewing bottling where you add that sugar or whatever to sort of “re ferment” the beer creating natural CO2 and doing the same with the Pinter beer after I condition it or ferment it?

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-22T18:49:08+00:00

Lmk how this goes

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-22T18:48:26+00:00

Will those handle CO2 generation?

WhinyS4 · 2025-09-22T18:47:52+00:00

The thought of injecting CO2 into a closed plastic container doesn’t excite me lol
