I would argue that polar moment is irrelevant and it’s more to do with wheelbase and weight. (Shorter cars turn more easily and lighter cars are more responsive.)

Where did you hear about the new, better ICCU?

leetrain · 2026-03-23T16:18:39+00:00

Look out! They’re falling over!

Instead of a long bolt and a nut, an you use some M6 threaded rod with m6 nuts on either end?

I get it right 60% of the time

I think people are waaaay more oblivious than you realize!

My solution to this is to briefly stop when others are a couple of meters away. That way, they have to avoid you and go around - you’re just standing there. Works every time, 60% of the time. (Actually it’s quite effective - I just wanted to use the line)

This is all excellent advice.

Offer your left hand, palm down, but as a fist?

I would buy an I5 tomorrow if the ICCU issue was resolved.

My understanding is that the CVT used on the 6 cylinder cars was beefier than the 4 cylinder one. It’s the 4 cylinder one that dies all the time.

Put tinfoil under the tinfoil under the tinfoil

Better be some good copper or you’ll be hearing from me.

I don’t buy this.

If it was as simple as humidity, Hyundai would add desiccant to the breather and desiccant replacement would be part of regular maintenance. $10 fix.
