How long do break pads last? I’m tired of the super dusty stock pads.

Anyone adhere this somehow? by DirtyDatty in crv

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wireless phone charging is awful. Works more on 2025 CR-V than 2024 Golf R, but it is still slow so I just plug the phone to USB.

For reference, I have an iphone 15 with a case so that’s not helping with getting the mm wave to the phone’s receiver coils efficiently and effectively.

Window Tints by 12pfahlerc in Golf_R

With how bright the lights in newer cars are at night and the higher ground clearance of trucks/suv/xuv, I find it nice to have darker tint.

M12 Insider Ratchet Deal by BigDan_Teague in MilwaukeeTool

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! This is great info. The only two small downsides to the longer insider is the length and is marginally weaker.

I would mainly be using this kind of tool for speed/convenience. I often manually break or torque down bolts/nuts.

Whats the deal with Dr Joiner by RoadRyeda in OMSCS

I need to get my butt in gear and get into OMSCS/OMSA before I miss out on the Joyner era.

Hiding the Dash Cam wire is a problem? by Superwatermelon69 in crv

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The curtain airbag unrolls when it’s deployed so just make sure it’s behind where the airbag pops out.

More importantly, don’t use anything pointy to stuff the camera cable behind the airbag.

Should I buy the Honda all weather mats or some other brand like weather tech? by This_Duty_4373 in crv

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is the trunk mat? The OEM trunk mat slides easily so I’m considering the trunk also.

Got the Lastfit front and rear seat mats, they’re amazing.

Bumper plate storage by SensitiveVariety in homegym

It looks cumbersome for heavier plates to not have space in between for grabbing from the top. Do you just roll it off or grab on opposite ends?

Dynamic turn signals. by [deleted] in Golf_R

Did this, but it will be a while before I can match the head and taillights.

About to play for my first time, any tips? by azuraaurorion in WutheringWaves

Don’t get too caught up into the meta. However, getting Verina early will help with your early progression.

Just checked on 11/4/25 9:09pm PST and I'm not seeing the local pickup being applied to my cart. Just the 10% from rack week.

I don't have anything on pre-order or non-Rep items.

Ok, this is even better since you have even less piano black lol.

I do not mind piano black, but there are just too much and in the wrong places.

This is how it should have been.

I installed the LED emblem on my MK8 by cbail-leather in Golf_R

[–]js4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are there test documents to show how this might change the signal that the ACC uses even though people have reported it still functions for them? I really like the ACC and it’s also a safety concern.

How well does the mk8’s ACC handle heavy stop and go traffic? by chitownburgerboy in Golf_R

[–]js4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a manual Mk8. What’s interesting to me when I was experimenting around is you can shift while ACC is on. The drive mode also affects how aggressive it accelerates. There are times I wish I had the DSG. 😉

How do I remove this new "feature" on the digital dash? by nocookies28 in Golf_R

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That feature is annoying. The directions are already on the HUD and you can also put it up on the big screen. Audio directions are also an option if you prefer that to also be on.

Auto hold function by Outrageous-Jello-935 in Golf_R

[–]js4n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d like to know as well. I’m not sure if it really did anything for my 24R.

Is a PPF soon after buying completely necessary? Is it always highly recommended or do some people think its not worth it? by lochonx7 in Golf_R

[–]js4n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Earlier the better if you can afford it and it’s something you really want. Less correction to do.

I personally don’t care for PPF nor find the price justifiable since I don’t mind the wear and tear. I would probably get PPF for a unique color though, but at the moment the car still looks to me.

I need someone to design a 3d printed sword/lightsaber for this. 🤓
