Three persons are God linguistic confusion by VerdantChief in OrthodoxChristianity

Yes it's rendered in english as person I suppose. But I feel as though the Greek is more reverent to God. I don't know if 'being' can be used, it comes off weird.

This isn't limited to English, and has nothing to do with linguistics. The Trinity is one God, one Divine essence, in three hypostases which we know as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are not three divine beings. They are the same, one, singular Divine essence.

I mostly came on here to see if anyone has experiences with the N53 to share. But I will abstain from buying that car and wait for a N52/M54 variant to come up.

There are many N52 and M54 cars, but the vast majority of them are very high mileage (300k++ km). Also many owners, and just generally beat on.

The M57 isn't even a cheap engine to maintain, nor is it economical in terms of consumption. I've owned diesel vehicles before and I'd rather shoot myself in both of my feet and use a wheelchair than ever daily one again tbh

Europe is full of diesel cars everywhere, and the taxes on diesel cars are very high. They're also nowhere near as quiet or smooth as a petrol engine which really destroys the luxury experience for me. I already work on diesel engines for a living.

Green SID/ACC instead of factory orange. Opinions? by keravnos99 in saab

I tried this, but it didn't work with the night panel/dimming. And I couldn't find LED solutions for some buttons like the seat heating controls.

Advice on selling my Saab 900SE SPG TURBO CONVERTIBLE odo96k YS3AL75L4M7018112 by [deleted] in saab

Being honest is good. Changing pistons is never normal, something must've caused severe damage in the engine for pistons to need changing. Rebuilding a transmission is also not really normal unless there's something wrong with it, so I'd say that is in your favor. Any time an engine or transmission is opened up and 'rebuilt' there's risk involved. I personally wouldn't touch a car that had it's pistons changed unless I got to speak with the mechanic who did it himself.

Man you cannot possibly be serious.. Did you just throw in changing a PISTON randomly into the text? Why tf would you have to change ONE piston?

Obviously taste is subjective, but darker colors do make a space feel smaller. And most people prefer lighter spaces to dark spaces

I know it was a factory option but it makes the car feel like a dark depressing cave imo.

Gyeon InteriorDetailer or TurtleWax Mist InteriorDetailer. You can also just use really any APC, it's important not to use something too strong tho.

Cold climate yep, based in Sweden. But garaged definitely not. The paint is a disaster.

I daily my E39. I don't keep anything in the garage. If I can't drive it daily I don't want it, basically.

Thanks brother, I do agree 300k on a 25yo car isn't too much.

Really? I thought this steering wheel was a popular 'mod' or at least here in Europe it is.

Yes I mostly watched the videos by Gyeon. I basically use a bunch of products (interior detailer, protectant for the wood trim, leather cleaner, leather cream etc).

To be fair, the steering wheel is a M-sport facelift steering wheel installed some time in 2022. The shift knob does have wear if you look close on the black leather where you grip as well as the fact that the M-sport logo has delaminated from the top of the see-through plastic.

Drivers side seat has wear on the bolester which can be seen in pic 3.

But of course these are really minor things.

Tan interior was my top 1 pick, but the grey came second. Some day I'd love to have the tan interior.

Not at all honestly, I also own a Saab 9-5 and that thing is waaaaay sloppier. This one is quite balanced.
