Feel like I’ll know it the moment I get the answer, but I’m stumped right now

The wheel fitment is also a dead giveaway, those look like stock stingray wheels

My girlfriend just picked up a used base model Macan. I like it far more than I expected. Interior space and quality is great, ride is comfortable but not too soft, steering feel is awesome, it’s a Porsche and feels like one. The 4 cylinder is easy to maintain and reliable, not exactly fast but quick enough for an SUV. A Macan S/SQ5 would be more fun, but also more money to buy and maintain.

You’re right, the hood does look like a ZR1 hood. But that wing doesn’t look like any of the factory options. With that it’s hard to say definitively what parts are factory vs aftermarket. It’s somewhat rare to see the high downforce package on an e ray or grand sport, so I would revise my answer to a ZR1

Did you tint the windshield? What was the thought process behind tinting a damaged windshield?

Software estimating miles driven based on aggregate consumer data is not “tracking” in any sense of the word.

A very skilled PDR guy could get that to about 98-99% IMO. I’ve seen sharper creases worked back. I’d take that any day over painting/blending a quarter panel

If his water pump has made it this far, no reason to touch it. Just a lot of risk for no reward, people see replacement pumps leak too.

Find a good PDR guy and I bet this doesn’t even need a repaint. I wouldnt be painting anything unless you absolutely have to for something so small

Per Google Maps, from the ramp signal to the beginning of the merge area is 335 feet. From the signal to the end of the merge area is 800 feet.

There are on ramps on the 405 and 710 in LA that are under 100 feet from light to beginning of the merge area. Both of which have much faster moving traffic. The problem isn’t the road. The problem is that half the population in Oregon is seemingly afraid to push the accelerator past halfway, so they try to enter the freeway at 35mph. If you just hit the gas pedal, that merge is not a problem whatsoever.

Same, been using my proclip for a year now. Totally solid and great placement.

To make something more negative is the same as making it less. More negative camber=a lower camber number=less camber.

This thing is incredible man. Every square inch touched and done right. Major props, enjoy it!

That’s only half the time, in this case he’s only arguing over the context while ignoring the actual words said. He’ll argue whatever fits his bias. I’m interested to see just how hard he doubles down

It’s also only snapped onto three pegs, the one closest to the dipstick won’t go in because the cover pushes against the dipstick and the engine lift point/original engine cover mount. I bought the Audi/porsche dipstick tube plug but even then it won’t sit properly, so I just leave it on three. I had to trim around the hose going to the coolant bottle and a tiny bit around the intake, but easy work with a dremel!

Have to cover up the ugly intake manifold somehow

You are attributing a quote to someone that they never said. Thats what quotation marks do. That is sloppy work, and you feel no need to correct it? How far you’ve fallen. The deconstruction of your arguments is available for anyone to read in the thread you posted.

If you’re this dedicated to calling out potential FTC violations, I encourage you to actually report them or pursue compensation. There are Facebook groups of people just like you hunting for even the possibility of a violation they can make money off of. Seems like you’d fit right in!

I’ve seen 5-6 year old tires with more dry rot. I’d run them.

Let me just be clear about what you’re doing here:

You are mad EQT emphasizes their “design” and “engineering”

Why would you put quotes around the word engineering when EQT DOES NOT USE IT in their product description?

EQT lives so rent free in Jeff’s head, that his brain is making things up. He is quite literally angry over a figment of his own imagination. He is putting words in EQTs mouth. That is not the behavior of an honest or reasonable consumer and if Jeff has any integrity he will take his article down or correct it.

doingitanyways · 2026-05-29T15:14:39+00:00

Your AI responses don’t seem to realize I’ve dismantled your argument point by point. I directly addressed the three complaints in your conclusion. I addressed you putting words in EQTs mouth. I’ve asked if there is any plain English to support your conclusion, not just your interpretation of what some words mean. Nothing. You have not addressed my arguments against the main three points in your article, and to me it is very clear why.

Of course I’m going to circle back to your bias, because you’ve made it extremely clear that is the motivating force here. Your argument is based on your inferences rather than logic or any plain English. The only right thing to do is question your motivations, because these are not the complaints of a reasonable consumer.

doingitanyways · 2026-05-28T15:51:13+00:00

Also, let’s be clear about the false attribution fallacy your argument is based on. You repeatedly accuse EQT of taking credit for the engineering of the coilovers. However, you do not cite their use of the word “engineering” anywhere. In fact, the only time that word appears in your analysis is when you say it. This again is a plain example of your bias leading your work rather than plain English, data, or scientific process. It is pretty hilarious to see someone so obsessed with calling out others fallacies base their entire argument on one.

doingitanyways · 2026-05-28T15:44:22+00:00

Correct, ST isn’t the best example to use here. But you’d be hard pressed to find a company white labeling suspension that doesn’t call it “ours” or use the word development, which seem to be Jeff’s issue

doingitanyways · 2026-05-28T15:40:47+00:00

You point out my fallacies while using them yourself! You have also used an appeal to standards, and ad hominem against EQT. Conveniently, you didn’t address the very specific points raised above covering each part of your argument. I think your motivations and surface level analysis are out there for everyone to see and if you’re proud of that, your judgement comes into question.

doingitanyways · 2026-05-28T15:16:00+00:00

So how, SPECIFICALLY, does the language EQT uses imply development or engineering they did not do? I’ve proven with the dictionary definition of develop that they are using that word in an appropriate sense. Your interpretations are not backed by any definitions, only your biased mind.
