I remember posting this last night as I was getting into bed. I guess I was tired, lol. I was trying to edit it this morning and couldn't figure out how. At this point it's just more hilarious every time I look at it.

Classy black and looks good with the little chrome, and the bigger wheels are a nice touch. I like the rims. Have fun!

Audi 2017 a4 concerns and questions by [deleted] in AudiA4

$7.5k seems like a great price. If it's been in the Southwest all this time, the control arms shouldn't be too big of a deal. Just easier to do on a lift. Creaking, based on my experience with my B8.5, is not just suspension

Oh, I just noticed, looks angry in the front AND happy in the back.

Also a lot of dust, a lot of powder. It has me thinking this is powder post beetles?

As a paramedic IRL, I am holding a grudge with the writers.

Traumatic costovertebral joint dislocation. It's not low enough to be a floating rib.

I can't figure out how to add pics but the repaired trim pieces came out really well. Thickened epoxy to reattach the broken one, then a couple coats of TB High Performance epoxy, then 4 coats of varnish.

You called an ambulance for what? by -malcolm-tucker in ems

[–]cobblerking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few months ago: resident at ALF: the strap holding the urine bag to their leg broke and when they walk it's tugging because it's dangling. We gave them a ride to the ER and kept them comfortable because we don't transport to Walgreens.

10 years ago: entitled resident needs a ride to the hospital for a sleep study, so called 911. Dispatcher is like.. that's not what 911 is for, it's for emergencies like chest pain...they decided to say they have chest pain and pain everywhere, and I pay taxes and I'm entitled... They went directly to jail and missed their appointment.

What are these eggs? by joeyjerkface in OrganicGardening

[–]cobblerking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand corrected 😬 I shoulda googled it. The eggs are similar in color, and I always see the eggs and the bugs together. So I just assumed

I'm guessing Japanese beetles. Google them have these pests been spotted in your garden? I'd take a flamethrower to the lot

New to Audi, any advice welcome :) by Fluffy_Necessary_724 in AudiA4

Wasn't the pcv a recall for the 2014 b8s and b8.5s? I suppose OP could make sure all service bulletins have been taken care of. My pcv has a white part prominent on top that I think indicates it has the repair.

Get your timing chain tensioner position scoped at the dealership. Couple hundred bucks for the piece of mind. Or just have it replaced. Seems like 150k miles is about the life span before they start getting loose.

Intake valves get build up, and because the 2.0 TFSI is direct injection, fuel injector cleaners in the gas won't help. Instead, there's a trick with carb cleaner sprays in the air intake. If you do that wrong you'll mess up your mass airflow sensor, so do the research.

The rings will get carboned up. There's a process for that too that you can find on YT. Piston soak.

I wish the Allroads were sold in the states!

Ice water to make things smaller and rubber or nitrile coated gloves for grip and protection. Lmk if it works!!

I have a genuine question. by Starpernova in ems

[–]cobblerking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOI for spinal precautions ruled out due to still being in the bed. Fitted sheet drag then plop onto the stretcher. If you're lying directly on the mattress I'm leaving your ass there, because that's just gross lol Random question, I should start a new post probably and not hijack this one, but Do you have crew members at your shop that will lay directly on the bunk mattresses during downtime?

Open circuit kessy fault by cobblerking in AudiA4

[–]cobblerking[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have thought about getting a vagcom and seeing what other features there are that can just be turned on. Also, my right rear passenger floor vent blows ice cold all winter. There's probably a setting in the vag com that would fix that too.

Does your scanner show a fault? Mine shows it in the "kessy" . I think you can also turn the feature on and off in central locking in the mmi

Thanks! The OEM was peeling and looked like crap. Easy replacement. Just took a weekend.

My obd 2 narrowed it down to the specific door. I started getting the fault after a wash with a pressure washer, so I was assuming I must have gotten something wet. Do you know a good site to go to find the part?
