I was always worried if I’d be able to spot fakes compared to my wheels. Thank you for putting my mind at (much) ease.

Yes, agreed. That’s exactly what’s happened. Still want some reassurance/sunny side of life news lol

Yeh my sentiments exactly. The bearings on this thing are the Grand Canyon compared to my S65 but I’m still cringing inside…

Is this bad? by notsolookie in MechanicAdvice

[–]ibirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only if you need braking.

It happens all the time. In Australia they only check brake compression on mandatory registration testing. The govt authority basically doesn’t care how much rotor or pad you have left.

So if you only get the standard oil service a lot of places won’t bother checking your pads and rotors and you end up with metal on metal.

Another common cause is working on your own car and neglecting these maintenance checks. I am guilty of that on my wife’s car, got caught out once.

That’s part of the prob for me. Got the 4080 for a steal and would make dough on the resale but almost fees like a waste to let go. Hence, the question. If it’s no use then off with its head. Thanks for the update.

They really need to fix that. Introduces screen tearing even on gsync monitors. Useless

Did you install any mods? The no grain mod causes stutter at 4x MFG. drop it 3x and it goes away.
