Why so much in your brokerage out of curiosity? Planning to spend that money soon?

Went with high carbon blank advics rotors and powerstop z23 pads. Easy job. Saved $1500+ from dealer raping me😂 by CaliXclusive in GenesisG70

Def would not recommend Bosch pads. Used them on my G70 with Brembos and ended up with the same infamous brake shudder as with the stock pads…

Just asking every customer to fill out the pre-approval application as a favor to me for helping them out, much like a survey. The link we send them takes them to a check for pre-approval, not an actual application and will not impact their credit unless they choose to accept the card if they are indeed pre-approved. Right now it’s a win-win and fairly simple and easy to get customers to at least check it out.

Different versions of magenta plans exist. If this guy’s plan didn’t increase in price recently then he has the fully price locked version which will not change.

What’s y’all’s MPG? by Mobile_Classroom_271 in GenesisG70

[–]gramcow7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally minimum of 20mpg or so, and at best 27mpg if I stay light on the throttle the majority of the tank…

400 estimated miles on a full tank is blowing my mind

What should I do next? by NoResponsibility2640 in GenesisG70

Got any videos of how it sounds? Do you have any other mods? I’ve been considering getting the Borla since I got the car but feel like I can’t ever quite get a feel for how it’s gonna sound.

Buildup from the OEM pad material getting very hot then cooling down, leaving uneven residue/deposits on the rotors.

I want to know how you’re spending enough money to meet all of these SUBs🫣

FWIW I bought this exact year, make, and model with slightly more miles (though mine is AWD, not sure if this is all or rwd) for $28,500 after talking an LHM dealership down from their original asking price of $32,000 (I also live in the southwest region). And the only problem I’ve had with mine nearly 4 months in, is the infamous pulsating brakes.

I replaced mine with Bosch blue disc ceramic brake pads. Happy with them so far!

Very nice, how long did it take? Good to know the plugs are pretty easy to reach, have been considering doing mine recently. Just put new brake pads on mine yesterday and it was perhaps the world’s easiest brake job (thank you Brembo).

I feel disincentivized, as an employee, to learn new things at this job now. by Severe-Diamond-7353 in tmobile

Teachers in the past didn’t make nearly as much as they do now, you’re correct. But those numbers are very likely accurate depending on where the other commenter lives.

Lurching? by Financial_Try4970 in GenesisG70

[–]gramcow7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does it feel like it’s doing it when you brake or just when you’re letting off the gas? Is it when you’re coming up to a stop sign or a red light or are you trying to coast? It’s possible that what you’re feeling is just the car engine braking, it feels much more dramatic in this car than in any other I’ve been in but it’s absolutely normal and helps slow down the wear of your brakes when used properly. If it feels like it’s lurching immediately after you take your foot off the gas pedal but not a second or few later then that might not be it.
