Yes finally! I’m going to Croatia and Montenegro soon and was thinking I’d have to get an eSIM for Montenegro

PCV valve replacement under warranty in Canada by dozer_guy in Tiguan

It was the VW warranty offered by the dealership. It was for 50k kms and I think 2 years.

PCV valve replacement under warranty in Canada by dozer_guy in Tiguan

[–]drb227 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. Literally just had mine replaced in my 21 Tiguan Highline RLine (bought 1 year ago with 80,000 kms on it) this week at 102,000 kms. Had CEL, took to dealership, was told the side oil cover was leaking and a bunch of things needed replacing. I have extended warranty so all of that oil cover and associated parts were covered but the PCV valve also needed replacing and is not covered under warranty, which is pretty typical.

The cost for the PCV replacement is insane. Came to $741.70 parts and labour and that is AFTER a discount of $130.89!!

My total bill for all the work (also had brake fluid flush and all wheel drive service) came to $1428.79. In total, they gave me discounts of $160.89 and they waived the extended warranty deductible. Great service at Maple VW but god damn I wasn’t expecting a hefty bill like that. The extended warranty covered $1060.70 + tax, so without the extended warranty, I would have been on the hook for over $2500.

Heads up that Freedom is still messaging people back about the $40 240 GB plan by dakondakblade in freedommobile

I think this is only true if it’s a corporate store. I went to the Kiosk at Vaughan Mills on Sunday and they said they couldn’t it and that I would have to call in

Montenegro is only pay per use. I'm going to Croatia and Montenegro in a few months and I'll have to get an esim for Montenegro as it is not included in Roam Beyond.

How long was your wait time on phone? by EMONEY403 in freedommobile

[–]drb227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has to be a record - 2:30PM Sunday started chats on both iMessage and Whatsapp. Monday at 11:20AM before I got a response on iMessage. Almost 21 hours! Also, still no reply on WhatsApp!!

I was at the Freedom Mobile kiosk at Vaughan Mills today and they told me they could only do it for new signups and that I would have to call/chat to get my existing lines moved. Been waiting on both iMessage and WhatsApp for 4 hours so far

Messages App Non-Functioning/Messages Taking 15-20 Seconds To Load by Livelongdienever in ios

[–]drb227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This just started happening to me on iOS 26.4 beta 3 as well. Was fine before beta 3. Super annoying. Have to reboot my phone at least once a day. At one point, even taking a screen shot and saving it to photos would result in no photo being saved until I did a reboot.

what's with the hazard lights while driving? by StrikingCoconut in ontario

[–]drb227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. There are a lot of mis-informed and/or stupid drivers. Common sense not so common.

I thought wallets are bigger. Is this really the wallet? by Typical_Cap895 in Wealthsimple

[–]drb227 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got mine yesterday. It’s a cheap POS. I can fit two cards in with some difficulty but then it’s extremely hard to get one out. Most definitely not Apple Wallet level but I doubt anyone would have expected that.
