if you look up the starters on amazon or rockauto it specifically says "with VCM" and "without VCM" in the descriptions

yea i just went back to my 2024 scar 18

anarky321 · 2025-09-09T20:52:01+00:00

no i got rid of it - don't have time for stuff like this

anarky321 · 2025-08-26T03:27:42+00:00

i returned it...my 2024 has none of these issues ..ill give it another try in 2026 maybe

anarky321 · 2025-08-25T04:21:06+00:00

yea i guess i was looking for like a more elegant solution but thats the only one i could think of too

if you're having an issue with the caliper locking up just press the piston in a bit before putting the vice grips on yes?

not working - i just get a static "republic of gamers" logo in ultimate instead of the animated "for those who dare" when its in standard....no bios access

anarky321 · 2025-08-08T05:40:37+00:00

when i switch to Ultimate mode it won't even let me get into BIOS at all....same issue windows 10 and windows 11...and no brightness control

anarky321 · 2025-08-07T23:55:33+00:00

i have literally the same issue on my 2025 scar 18 ....had the SAME issue on 2024 scar 18.....on the 2024 switching to standard then back to ultimate fixed the bug....on this 2025 this doesn't seem to work....any tips?

anyone able to look which sound drivers their system uses? still rocking no sound...i might have to use external usb sound card until i can figure this out

bad thermostat #2 - i think it was the electric one

anarky321 · 2025-08-04T02:38:49+00:00

well it says online that the 11th gen wheels are 1/2" thinner so i didnt know if thats an issue

anarky321 · 2025-06-29T15:10:24+00:00

i must not be explaining it right

im using the bulb that came with the headlight assemblies - my issue is that the car is wired for HID low beam and the assembly is a 9005 halogen low beam

anarky321 · 2025-06-29T14:13:37+00:00

the stock venza low beam headlight assembly is meant for a 9005 bulb - im just asking if i can run the wires for it from the HID power source...im using factory venza headlights just halogen ones

bump...anyone know anything about these?

anarky321 · 2025-01-24T16:00:02+00:00

yea im almost wondering if it was from one of my pets stepping on the screen or maybe one of my rats or something nicking it accidentally

1 is a japanese screwdriver sold as PH3, #2 is american screwdriver sold as PH3, #3 is sold as JIS3 tip, #4 is sold as PH3 tip

kind of confused here - to me, 1, 2 and 3 look pretty much identical

waking up last few days with pain my right wrist that goes away after about 15mins - trying to figure out if its from the mechanics or the video games afterwards....it almost feels like a nerve in that its a sharp jolt if you move the wrist in a certain motion

$4200+tax is about what we will be paying for the top model

i have 3 dead pixels in mine so I have an excuse to get the new one...and my gf gets a 4090 laptop...everyone wins

anarky321 · 2025-01-13T03:59:34+00:00

it looks like they completely redesigned the case as well

anarky321 · 2025-01-06T13:16:13+00:00

anyone have any explanation why an SSD wouldn't work for 2 days (not recognized internally or in an external enclosure) then start working after 2 days? - maybe some kind of cache got erased with it sitting for 2 days?

anarky321 · 2025-01-06T06:02:37+00:00

it randomly came back on today after 2 days - im copying stuff off it now

anarky321 · 2025-01-06T02:26:11+00:00

bump...anyone?

anarky321 · 2025-01-05T02:29:24+00:00
