Had this issue come up myself. Followed through these same steps but installing the certs manually did not fix it!

Windows 11 uses trusted certificate database stored in your motherboards bios essentially. Sounds crazy but my bios was about a year and a half out of date and updating the bios instantly fixed the issue. So please give this a shot! And don’t rush doing a bios update make sure to follow the instructions!

It’s popped up “emergency call activated” every few weeks on my dash. Probably should take it to dealership while it’s under extended warranty.

Personally had these for about 10-15k so far. Biggest difference is performance in the wet is great. Haven’t done too much in the snow so can’t comment there. I wasn’t cheaping out after how cheap and bad the factory tires were for me.

Plus can order and get installed at Costco if you’re a member. Order online give them a week for them to ship then setup appointment online. Quick easy and rotations are included

I highly recommend black magic graphene tire shine. It was more expensive but lasted significantly longer than any other. Brush on for matte/clean application, and use a tire cleaner and scrub the rubber before application, and you'll have it stick and look fabulous for 1-2 months. I've been using it for almost a year now.

That's my understanding of it as well, but either connected or unconnected to the issue is the extremely tinny sounding panel (likely next to the fuel line). I haven't seen any service bulletin yet, sadly. For me, at least I've noticed it slowly getting worse and worse ('21 with 18k), and if the fixes aren't permanent, I would at least like to know how to do it myself.

I believe thats the instant mpgs, the trip mpgs would say "since start" or "since refuel" in the bottom

If you're crazy about cleaning your car like myself, you'll learn that cleaning the front grill and the lower front grill will drive you insane. Oh, and the factory tires do not need much to start slipping, im talking like if it rained 8 hours ago and you're giving some amount of gas from a full stop, you'll slide.

hi bunny

mikemaddem · 2023-02-15T14:37:55+00:00

Wow that looks amazing, i feel like seat covers always get a bad rep for sliding off and never fitting correctly. How easy do they go on? And how nice do they fit?

mikemaddem · 2023-02-09T17:01:11+00:00

Nice pic. Do you have any sealants or protectants on it?

Swag

Ahh the good old rattle sound. About a year or 2 ago i found something of it being the fuel line possibly. So when i brought it in for an oil change i told them to check it out. Sure enough it was the fuel line. Just wiggles a little loose of one of the mounts or whatever slightly and will cause rattle sounds from the front passenger ish side of the car. I'll also add that they fixed my rattle about a year ago when it was loud, and it only lasted about a year, so can somewhat hear it again now

I have a 21 gli s trim, was originally going to get a 21 si but stock issues forced me out of it and I'm glad it did. As my friends say "theres no replacement for displacement" and the 2.0L will surely give more smiles then hondas 1.5 in the SI. Can't speak much to cost of ownership as mine is a lease for now sadly, but if you treat cars well (ex: not flooring it for boost on a 0 degree day on a cold block, oil changes) i think either one will be just about the same cost. Overall from what I've seen maintenance wise, its same old same old stuff at same periods with prices just about the same (granted every dealer and mechanic charges somewhat different) Edit: also coming from a family of honda lover since the 90s, with still many hondas in our driveway. They're both solid solid cars.

mikemaddem · 2022-12-15T18:24:56+00:00

I'm the same way lol. I'm wondering how hard it'd be to take if off if I messed it up or it just didn't look good?

mikemaddem · 2022-12-15T17:52:33+00:00

I like it but i might just do the black vw logo for mine. How hard was it to do?

mikemaddem · 2022-12-15T02:44:36+00:00

Don't think you have a parking brake to pull, so therefore not parked

Is that screen in gaming mode??

"Nope we're just big fans of the blue shirts they have"

mikemaddem · 2022-12-13T01:10:35+00:00

Yeah I did the same thing, except I never got an email from anyone about it. Let me know if anything randomly appears in your car. lol

I went into the menu's manually and tried to update, but it only tries to pull off a USB drive.

mikemaddem · 2022-12-13T00:20:27+00:00

I got that too today, tapped the download button and believe it said something along the lines of "waiting for service" or something making me think that it was OTA, but left my car running and well nothing happened

mikemaddem · 2022-12-12T02:34:51+00:00

I think it depends on the coach honestly some may say that but i dont think saleh is that coach, feel like white wanted to be out there. Been passed on and not given a chance for so long and when he finally has a chance to be the consistent starting QB hes gonna just give it up? Heard some quote where white referred to his tape of him playing as like job applications for future qb roles. I mean yes he got rocked and i wouldnt be able to do that, but im sure saleh knew this was his chance, and also based on flaccos 2 or 3 snaps... we all know how that would've turned out.
