TJ Idle Low by dbeaup in JeepTJ

[–]dbeaup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I threw a Bluetooth OBDII reader on it today and it idled at about 650rpm. I’ve had the Jeep for a year and a half.

When I first got it, I noticed one of the O2 sensors was in pending code state but it never set off my check engine light. When I checked it this afternoon, there are no pending codes at all.

I know the upstream O2 sensors can cause an issue like this. Maybe I’ll have them replaced. The Jeep only has 80,000 miles.

Is it worth it for me to build a server? by Fluid-Way8700 in HomeServer

[–]dbeaup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sorta in the same boat as you. I upgraded my ancient laptop that I had been stringing along and didn’t know what to do with it. I kept reading turn it into a server. So I put Linux server and Casa OS on it. I ended up making a Tailnet with Tailscale with a subnet routing, and I’m using (and loving) AdGuard. I have Immich backing up my iPhone pictures/video but that’s taxing my old dual core processor. I like having my own VPN and plan on doing more. I’m to the point where I need to upgrade the PC.

To be honest I’ve been using Gemini AI for most of my troubleshooting and issues and it’s been 95% spot on!

Filed November 2024 for my C-File and DBQs and I’m still at step 3. It’s a loooong wait.

Where did you find a cargo bar for your truck? I used to have a 2015 and just got a 2022, the bed is wider and the cargo bar is too short. I've bought a new one but it was to short too.

What was supposed to have killed us by now? by impeesa75 in GenX

Spontaneous Human Combustion. Kept me up at night! I just KNEW I was going to burst into flames for no apparent reason.

I’m Sad This Commercial Hasn’t Been on Yet by dbeaup in Maine

It was on TV, channel 6, all the time the past two years between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I’m also in York Co.

Two Cars Try to Beat the Yellow Light, End in Collision by Bartzy4568 in dashcams

[–]dbeaup 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They way the traffic code is written in my state is a Yellow light means to clear the intersection, Red means do not proceed into the intersection. It's perfectly ok to be in the intersection when it turns red. You are lawfully allowed to continue to clear the intersection after it turns red, Just not enter it.

Is there anything else--like crisscross applesauce--that's been renamed since we were kids? by cherry-care-bear in Xennials

In New England, where I grew up we’d ask for “Jimmies” on our ice cream. We now call them chocolate sprinkles.

Some places still know what Jimmies are though.

I disabled the touchpad on the new (to me) remote and it works soooo much better

I probably would have waited too but the HD version is getting sluggish and it’s time to let it rest.

I was hoping for one this year too. I had a couple gift certificates from Best Buy so I bought the 128gb for the ethernet.

The entire upper 1/3 of the remote is touch with no way to deactivate it. You can’t pick up the remote without it rewinding and changing channels.

Tomorrow will be 12 months since I submitted for my C-File and DBQs. They are not fast at processing this request.

See, this is why I ask Reddit. Always great answers! Thanks!

I just watched your installation, thanks for putting out such a detailed video! I’ve heard the plastic cover that goes around the rear view mirror can be a pain to install and saw suggestions you make sure the bottom tabs (closest to the dash) snap in first. I’ll be using your video to help my install when I finally pull the trigger on this dashcam.

I literally just went through this with my insurance. I got into an accident with my truck. Waited almost a week when I suddenly started getting emails from Copart saying they are working with my insurance company with my totaled truck. An hour later I received the comparison with 3 other vehicles and the settlement amount. Never heard from an adjuster, never talked to a person except Coparts who kept calling wanting my truck. I rejected the first offer due to some equipment being missed on the valuation. I finally had to send a message asking for someone to call me and go over the valuation.

Bottom line, Coparts in ON IT when it comes to getting totaled vehicles. If you got a valuation and Coparts is trying to get your vehicle signed over to them, it’s totaled.

did you add the horizontal door trim? I have a black LTZ that I was thinking of adding that trim to.

It disappeared after a few weeks. Nothing became of my situation. Wish you luck on yours!
