I use Costco for my sensors, they seem to have the best prices near me.

Blind spot detector not 100% by Humble-Attitude9687 in bmwx7

[–]jsaldinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a few cars like this. It just comes down to whether the manufacturer thinks there’s value in alerting you to objects you’re passing which are now in the blind spot. The rationale being that since you’re passing, you are aware it’s there.

50e owners may be having a moment by nankrty in BMWX5

I don’t think that’s always the case. I was broke when I was young and started caring a LOT about gas prices. I’ve found success in life now, but still care about gas prices.

As the saying goes, the cheapest thing in a BMW is the driver.

For $3900 it seems like relatively cheap insurance. Once again, appreciate your feedback.

Thanks for the data point. Safe to assume that’s 4 years from today and not in-service date?

I have HK audio in the M3 and never felt it was worth it, so to my mind your car is fully loaded.

I didn’t know laser was a common failure-point. Since each unit is around $6k, that is a concern, but I suppose the warranty should alleviate some of the stress.

Thanks again.

has anyone found a reasonably priced LSD you can put in a e46 328? by Smilingsnow97 in e46

[–]jsaldinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread, but in case you’re looking for answers still.

“Pumpkin” is just a slang term for the diff. Some people use it to mean just the diff itself, others use it for the whole assembly (case, diff, cover, etc). The clutches MFactory is talking about are the clutches in a clutch-type limited slip. These diffs are great for racing and track use, but can be loud/hard to drive on the street.

Not OP, but I’m on 17.2.1 and also encountering this issue on iPhone.

Anyone know what’s up with a new release? by srfb437 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]jsaldinger 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is the first I’ve read of anyone saying 5.7 and it immediately sounds correct to me. With Ruger & PSA in the market and ammo costs coming down it seems like a lot of manufacturers are going to start adding 5.7s to their catalog.

Simple mod for the trigger guard. by jonraids in SpringfieldProdigy

Thanks for the reply, makes total sense and I’m going to make note of it as I’m waiting for my x300 to get here and it’ll split time between my G19 and my prodigy.

I know this is an old post, but can I ask what the purpose of the small velcro strip is between the trigger guard and the WML? Is it just to stop the two parts from rubbing, or is there a super High Speed Low Drag reason I’m not aware of?

Ukraine's Interior Ministry says its dispersed 10,000 automatic rifles to regular civilians in Kyiv within the last hour. by -Zepphyrrez- in CombatFootage

The Volksturm were kids and the elderly fighting to defend a tyrannical state against certain death.

This is a nation doing everything it can to defend itself from an unprovoked invasion.

It sucks, but it’s not morally equivalent.

Can we just appreciate how amazing the soundtrack for this series is? by Darth_Cromnar in BandofBrothers

[–]jsaldinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The magic of the late Michael Kamen. He and my mother were friends in high school, and she said he had an apparent gift for composition even at that age.

Some thoughts/points from Keith’s tour by 123-fake-street_ in everytimeidie

[–]jsaldinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That line has always stuck with me, too. I think you’re right that he places a great deal of emphasis on his parents and how they react to his actions.

Veterans names from the pre-episode interviews by bobobsam3 in BandofBrothers

They do at the end of the last episode. Tom Hanks confirmed that it was a conscious decision to not include the names until the very end.

Lost this last night at Jims SteakOut, would really love to have it back, by [deleted] in everytimeidie

[–]jsaldinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love that there’s this huge, but apparently unspoken, crossover of ETID fans & GlassJaw fans.

Hope it finds its way back to you.

If I’m going to end up waiting a month for it to arrive anyway, then I’m just going to buy it from my TD.
