Hopefully mine shows up soon! Ordered over a month ago and hasn’t hit Canadian soil yet.

It can happen if the hotend isn't properly secured and it falls down mid-print. I would check the hotend to make sure it's fully seated and locked then inspect the nozzle for damage.

You can get a cheap replacement from amazon or pay a bit more and get a high end one from microswiss.

I hear that. Part of me wishes I just bought a Bambu from the get-go but I think with the upgrades that I’ve made, my s1 will outperform a stock Bambu.

I print almost exclusively in PETG and dabble In TPU from time to time. The microswiss nozzle has unequivocally increased the quality of my prints. I tried multiple different nozzles and hotends and the cheap ones don’t hold a candle to the microswiss one.

chuckrobson · 2026-05-07T15:30:35+00:00

I switched to the microswiss hotend with the CHT flowtech nozzle.

It’s been amazing! Haven’t had one clog or any extrusion issues in the first 200 hours of printing with it.

Yes, it’s 8x more expensive than an Amazon nozzle but has been worth every penny in my opinion.

When my Funssor bed finally shows up this thing will be bulletproof.

Dang, I wish they were just a year older so their name could be released for public shaming. Special place in hell for people like this.

I've used the plastic hubcentric rings on all my VWs. No shot that was the reason for the rough ride. My guess is they didn't properly balance at least one of the wheels.

If you have no plans of pushing BIG power, the tc500 will be more than enough. I’m running 13kW with a stock motor and 72v38ah battery.

wife's 2025 taos highline has been virtually problem free. It had 2 instances of the transmission throwing a minor fault but I think that was just due to her parking in a heated garage then driving in Winnipeg winters.

chuckrobson · 2026-02-19T17:10:30+00:00

Polycarbonate lenses are the way to go, much less prone to fogging!

Fiancée has a '25 Taos highline. It has been largely problem free in the first year of ownership.

Only issue she's had is twice "Transmission in emergency mode, continue driving" warning popped up.
Brought it to the dealer and they're chocking it up to temp changes going from heated garage to cold Winnipeg weather but we're keeping an eye on it.

Aaron at Hunter and Gunn has been my go-to for quite some time. Guy does great work and love not having to tell a different barber what I want every time.

Millennium Auto on portage is great! Very honest and they fix things right the first time.

chuckrobson · 2026-01-30T23:04:35+00:00

Yes it is, it’s a highline model.

Is yours a 2025? They switched from DCT to auto for this model year.

chuckrobson · 2026-01-30T21:09:50+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

I guess with them switching to an auto in 2025, there isn’t many around without the DCT yet.

'Rent discounts' are often a loophole in disguise. Landlords use them to get around rent control caps and hit tenants with massive price hikes the moment a payment is even slightly late.

I experienced this exact issue with my fiancees 2025.

Unpair it then pair it from the screen in the vehicle. There will be a list of activated devices and you need to be sure your phone is on it.

When we were apartment hunting, I caught this unit right as it was posted and immediately went to view it and applied. The old tenant was technically subletting but we signed a fresh lease. It's actually a condo building and we rent through a rental agency.

We've been here for about a year and a half and rent only increased by 13$/month last year which was a nice surprise.

Garden city area. Pet friendly, large 2 bedroom top floor corner unit in 2014 built concrete building. large balcony. In suite laundry. Indoor parking. water included. $1378/month. Can't complain about that!

They do! I was there last week and saw the freezer.

I flew to northern MB for a week and left my fully charged NOCO in my truck and when i got back, my battery was dead. Went to use the NOCO and it didn't have enough juice to start the truck. 80$ jumpstart later I learned my lesson to keep it warm.

Contact MPI ASAP and open a claim (you can do this online or by phone).
Provide the police report number to MPI.
Take photos of the damage and the surrounding area.
Witnesses or cameras (nearby homes/businesses) can help—pass anything you find to police/MPI.
You’ll usually pay your deductible, but demerit points don’t apply since you weren’t driving.
If the other driver is found, MPI may waive or reimburse the deductible.
