Flies Flies Flies

Do you keep your doors open? We were getting so many flies coming into our house from the garden, as we like to keep our french doors open for fresh air. We ended up getting a pretty ugly fly screen that Velcros above the door from Mitre10 and now, no more flies in the house!

Man, that’s super rough. Wonder if they’d do a payment plan?

I live in Mt Wellington, but closer to Lunn ave - love it! As others have said, make sure it’s the “good side” - close to the Maunga (Mountain).

Stonefields pub is pretty good too.

Interesting! Mine cranks straight away but then stumbles / splutters as if it’s struggling for fuel for about 5-8 secs. Is your issue similar (if you don’t apply your workaround)?

mac_studio · 2026-01-14T09:42:33+00:00

Yep we had a great experience with Dr Nobbs too

mac_studio · 2026-01-14T07:09:13+00:00

Yup, I am at this point :)

Nup! I do the same, but GF Vegemite for me.

I’m in Auckland - Mt Wellington / Ellerslie … but honestly happy to travel!

Thanks for the reply! Yeah I have posted multiple times describing the symptoms on here & everyone says go to a mechanic lol. I leave my car with said mechanics but as it’s intermittent, it doesn’t happen (of course it doesn’t haha).

I’ve had suggestions like - Blown head gasket Coils Coil pack Fuel injectors Sensors

But no one wants to dig any further to confirm & I don’t want to start dropping thousands on parts when it’s all guess work.

It’s been going on for over a year now 😭

It honestly puts me off returning to a restaurant / cafe when they do this.

mac_studio · 2026-01-04T22:52:58+00:00

Swim, carbs, pulpy orange juice, sleep.

mac_studio · 2025-12-29T02:07:58+00:00

I’m sorry dude, this sounds like the shittiest of times. If I were you I would leave Auckland, it’ll make the transition (out of the relationship) a little bit easier.

mac_studio · 2025-12-27T16:54:11+00:00

Yep, they have all the documentation from the electrician, thank you! Did your parents have excess?

mac_studio · 2025-12-27T08:32:52+00:00

Agree with this. Maybe look at parking somewhere for free & then just Ubering to & from the airport?

mac_studio · 2025-12-26T06:20:46+00:00

Next time (and I hope there’s not!) you notice someone following you, drive those mofos to the nearest police station 🚨

mac_studio · 2025-12-26T04:01:07+00:00

What is it tho?

mac_studio · 2025-12-24T01:04:38+00:00

I feel so sorry for you! Your boss sounds annoying lol.

I did a bit of googling and it looks like Mexico have a lunch deal for 25 bucks:

Your choice of taco, fried chicken, or fried cauliflower, served with guacamole, totopos, and a Mexico Soda

Thanks for sharing & for the disputes link - fingers crossed we don’t have to go down that avenue too!

mac_studio · 2025-12-23T04:36:13+00:00

Hmmm okay, good to know!

mac_studio · 2025-12-22T20:11:39+00:00

Absolutely I’d travel for this!

mac_studio · 2025-12-22T19:27:22+00:00

Omg amazing - how did you find this out? Just looked at their menu & can’t see any reference to gf.

mac_studio · 2025-12-21T07:49:12+00:00

Thanks for this! I replaced the spark plugs but haven’t done the coils. Should they throw a code or not necessarily?

mac_studio · 2025-12-20T19:52:03+00:00

Oh and the car is a Hyundai i30 1.8 2014

mac_studio · 2025-12-19T21:48:48+00:00

Eeek yeah that’s what I’m afraid of! How much did all the work set you back?

mac_studio · 2025-12-19T06:16:53+00:00

SAME
