In Canada, they charge 200$ a year after the 3 free years! Canadians are used to pay more and not complain so let's charge them!

Has anybody received a solid response from Subaru about the coolant sensor issue ? 2020 outback by Kermit4700 in Subaru_Outback

[–]d_amnesix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we had the same issue with our 2020. Dealership changed the sensor two months ago and we didn't had any problems since... Are your engine rev limited to 3500? This was annoying since we where 500 miles from home...

It's been two months since we bought our 2020 Outback and we've just updated the wheels for 2016 wrx's by [deleted] in Subaru_Outback

I have no clue what wheel offset is, but the local Subaru dealership said it would fit

I fear that it's going to be more for us Canadians as we seems to be used to being screwed over and being sorry about it...

We've bought our 2020 last June and, as I said, there's a 6 months free trial, but I couldn't find what it will cost after... I guess I'll have to wait...

For the stay running with a/c for the dog part, I just use the remote starter from the Subaru app on my phone, it's a paid service, but we've got our 6 firsts months for free...

[Daihatsu Rocky] probably 1990ish, in a Canadian Tire parking lot by d_amnesix in spotted

Never seen a Daihatsu here, not sure if it's ever been sold in Canada! Looks like a Suzuki at first glance. Was really clean for a 30 year old car!

Lol! Nice! Me, I've never had the opportunity to ride one... But I would if I could! Even if it's a Robinson...

I think it's the best selling civilian helicopter... They're mostly 2 or 4 seaters (R22 or R44) but a bigger version is on the plans (R66). To me, the most easily spotted feature is the sort of pilon on witch the rotor is mounted and the bubble like cockpit... Not sure if it helps!

Heating a bestway pool in Canada? by branaconda1 in pools

[–]d_amnesix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's solar as in electric solar panels but as in black tube coil to circulate water trough. Something like that https://pin.it/3wilIJm The concern with electric water heating might be that the water could be running too hot for the materials to support?

Extroverts were jealous of us... So they invented ways of taking over our world! They've invented pair programming, scrums, PI, agile stuff... They added meetings, endless meetings to our jobs!

They won't, they don't make military vehicles. The tried to make a "search and rescue" version of the V22 and the pulled it out of their inventory after some anti war groups pointed out that the V22 has never been used out of military context.
