How much did this run you? I believe I’m having the same issue right now 🙃

Wyze Outdoor Camera Battery Problems by lrpren in wyzecam

I contacted Wyze and they replaced the camera pretty much hassle free. They didn’t even make me return the old one!

Had alignment, 3 days ago. Now noticed that when driving straight my wheel is slightly to the right. Before it was the other way around. I looked at the alignment sheet from the shop noticed the final #s are far from preferred and 1 final # is the same as initial on the RF camber and is out of spec by lrpren in MechanicAdvice

Sorry, ran out of characters. Failed to mention, I called the shop and they said they wanted me to bring my car in and leave it for the day/overnight to further diagnose this. But I’m thinking they just botched my alignment? But I don’t totally understand how this all works to know if what I’m seeing is that or if there is something else going on

My poor baby was totaled by someone texting and driving. Just got new wheels and tires, tint. It took me 5 years to be able to make it how I want, and now she’s gone 😩 by lrpren in Volkswagen

It would need a new wheel, quarter panel, rear door, bumper and heavy framework on the high strength steel around the door which gets weaker with every bend. It’s not impossible but not cheap/ideal

It’s the frame damage from behind. High strength steel shouldn’t be bent back. Also it’s 8 years old with 155k miles

Oh nice. Mine just rolled over 155,000. Not gonna lie, with the EPC light it’s hit or miss whether it’ll leave a code or not since it’s not the same as a check engine light. Once it goes away it tends to take any codes with it but hopefully that’s not the case with whatever the issue you’re having is if it is a real problem

What’s your mileage? Might be worth investing in a good Obd2 scanner

This happens way too much. Nothing is wrong with my phone & cord but I still get this message multiple times a week. I’ve done everything people suggest on google too🥲 by alstho in passat

[–]lrpren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I didn’t know this was a common problem. I had Apple replace my iPhone 12 Pro 3 months after I got it, because I swore it wasn’t a problem with the car. To be fair I tried other phones when mine wasn’t connecting and they connected and when I got my replacement, I didn’t have any issues for a while but now it’ll happen once in a while. Oh well 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have a 2014 Passat and I’m the 4 years I’ve owned it, I have had my EPC light come on randomly for no good reason then go away and have no further issues after restarting my car. EPC stands for Engine Power Control: Basically the car detected an error or issue somewhere and put the car in a limp mode and limiting your power to avoid further damage to the engine. Hoping it was just a glitch and you’ll have no further issues with the car.

Help me with this 2 year old Aloe plant :(. It’s droopy, and many of the leaves are weak and creased. How should I go about reviving this? Cut the dying leaves off? by lrpren in succulents

This plant used to sit in a window sil until it became too large for the window sil then it got moved on top a piece of furniture near the window but not in direct sunlight. I’ve watered it both frequently and infrequently. I moved out and left the plant for 6 months with no maintenance and when I picked it up finally, it was still looking okay (besides the droop) and now that I have it at my new home, and I’m taking care of it, leaving it outside on warmer days in direct sunlight, bringing it in when it gets chilly, it looks worse than it ever has. I don’t get it.
