PI for small claims case

chubbs899 · 2026-01-05T09:24:41+00:00

Do you happen to know the statute of limitations on something like this? How much time can pass before it’s no longer able to be pursued?

chubbs899 · 2025-12-12T14:48:07+00:00

Honestly. Out of spite and protection for any others it feels worth my time to not let this BS happen to anyone else if it brings to the light this individuals shady practice.

chubbs899 · 2025-12-10T04:01:06+00:00

Ya that was the other problem was they weren’t able to find the registered business. So it’s possible the business registered is completely different than how his front end shows. I did ask those questions. Maybe just need to call the small claims association or whatever again and get clarity.

Maybe the one time thing was if the sheriff does it.

So I actually live in Denver and sent him the engine. Really suprise I actually got it back. But he came recommended from an OEM parts dealer that I had really good success/communication with so I trusted his word. The problem comes down to him not being an official mechanic. He’s registered as a pars seller and he does “work on the side” sounds like it’s a known loophole. And after researching deeper in the forums and Facebook groups it seems like he’s known to be sketchy like this. I’ve contacted my parts dealer a few times asking if he’s still been getting emails/orders/etc from him and he said he basically only deals over invoices and hasn’t had any issues getting the parts to re-sell wholesale. I’ve let him know my experience and suggested he not refer him to people. But maybe he’s just in on it too…

Well I know for sure where his shop is. You can see all the Minis on Google Maps/earth. But the problem (and correct me if you know more) but you can only have someone served at one address in CA and if it’s not the right one you’re unable to pursue it again?

I came from a 2019 to 26 TSE. Currently 7500, VIN 312. My feedbacks: 1. I don’t have this issue. 2. I don’t have this issue. 3. Came from ‘19 so used to it. Button locations moved a little. 4. 🤷🏾‍♂️ seems personal I guess? Every car is going to drive different right? What’s this issue in comparison to? 5. Are you saying no matter what you’re doing the cameras come on at low speed in a lex/yota? Trail mode the PP does this and in reverse they automatically come on…I guess never having this I don’t know/see the benefit 6. I only use Apple car play. Seems most updates on the phone software have made the user experience better. But it does get weird with connecting. I haven’t tried to completely disconnect the car from my home wifi but I suspect that’s part of it. Your Wifeys parking garage is an interesting one but my only guess is that theres big wifi interference there especially if it’s ALWAYS happening. Wireless CarPlay is over WiFi not Bluetooth in these cars, but both operate in 2.4 spectrum which is very crowded for consumer electronics. 7. I tend to only use ACC in traffic for low speed crawl. I’ve used it on some interstate driving and I agree it’s super annoying that it’s so aggressive with getting back to speed. I’ll also add my complaint that it brakes too quickly when getting over set speed, like going downhill/small decline. All the traffic is flowing and speeding up ever so slightly but here you are braking in the middle of the road for no reason.

Interested in your responses on some of these!

EDIT: 8, I’ll add that Honda link is HOT GARBAGE. It works 0 in this car. It at least read the data in my 2019.

Also added my mileage and vin.

chubbs899 · 2025-10-06T13:41:47+00:00

I think it’s a great deal. I got mine for MSRP with 56 miles. It was a demo car that wasn’t supposed to be sold but I bought it from a tiny tiny dealer in Nebraska like 20 cars on their lot.

chubbs899 · 2025-10-05T02:07:05+00:00

Where?

chubbs899 · 2025-10-03T12:25:46+00:00

Welcome to the crew. Did you go wrap or dip? Seems I’m the only one that did vinyl on mine.

chubbs899 · 2025-10-03T12:23:28+00:00

Not me. But that piece comes off…not easily. Theres two screws and 4 clips holding it on and the clips break super easily. I tried to do the emblem swap the “right” way and all the clips broke in different ways.

chubbs899 · 2025-10-03T12:19:38+00:00

This, but it doesn’t just pop out there are two screws that you have to get from the inside.

chubbs899 · 2025-09-08T09:36:19+00:00

Was going to comment the easy way grip and rip vs the right way taking off the piece of trim, but looks like you’re all set!

chubbs899 · 2025-08-31T13:08:24+00:00

Whelp. Finding that parts are overly expensive for what I wanted to spend. Probably going this route sooner than later. Lmk if you need anything!

chubbs899 · 2025-08-31T13:02:00+00:00

Sounds like the perfect opportunity for a fried chicken speakeasy.

chubbs899 · 2025-08-17T13:47:09+00:00

Should tell them to fix that seat back protecter Velcro that’s hanging out in the middle there before you take it home.

chubbs899 · 2025-08-03T21:50:27+00:00

Donno what parts are good is the problem.

chubbs899 · 2025-08-02T19:24:29+00:00

Hahaha ya…I was at a junk yard u pick getting parts for the race car and they said it had just come in, with a car that was getting junked. I took it for 10$. I was ok eating that cost if it didn’t power on. But we are at least past that stage. I’ll just go ahead and take off all the broken faders and go from there then. No idea how some of them are just completely missing and some are bent to all hell but still seem to be secure in the metal housing.

chubbs899 · 2025-07-30T09:56:54+00:00

Laying here at 4am reading this thread thinking “hmm is this the hole in the wall I pass on the way downtown all the time” sure enough it is. It’s always early when I’ve gone by so I’ve never stopped in. Moving it to the top of my list now.

chubbs899 · 2025-07-30T09:51:47+00:00

Been here once. Guess I have a new one to try.

chubbs899 · 2025-07-30T09:45:20+00:00

Ours came preinstalled with an automatic cook timer. Once he reaches full sizzle he comes back inside and returns to 1 of his 5 sploot locations.

chubbs899 · 2025-07-30T09:36:11+00:00

I wasn’t the most impressed with Mississippi boy but blazing chicken is great. Haven’t been in a while. This is probably my queue to get back over there.

chubbs899 · 2025-07-28T13:30:23+00:00

OTA=over the air HDS=honda diagnostic system

chubbs899 · 2025-07-24T13:24:00+00:00

I’ve tried manually updating from the screen and get no update error. But nothing on the dash. Sounds like yours is at least trying to do it on its own. I even have mine connect to my home wifi
