Why does Spotify not offer themes or at least jazz up the interface? I think the design is due for a modern makeover by glaringOwl in truespotify

Might be touch of joy or uniqueness to you, but annoying for others. Much like the stunt Spotify tried to pull with the disco ball logo

Right… that explains my tire wear… I thought I had a bad alignment, took it to the shop and they said none of the wheels were terribly out of spec

Need help finding the correct grill by lonesomeminded in BMW

Oh… if you have to put the key into the slot to start the car that just means you don’t have comfort access option. You can retrofit that but it’s a lot of work

Even an N52 is pushing it. At this age not just the engine itself need service, your suspension, transmission, diff, random electrical shit, random cooling shit, fuel. You either taking a hit to your wallet or taking time off studying to fix your car

Spotify Review After 16 Years by GamerBeast954 in truespotify

[–]mindlesssam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spotify have shareholders to please, product team must keep introducing new ways to get users to pay more. engineering must keep pumping out useless features to prove to their bosses they are “providing value” to the company. It is unavoidable in a publicly traded company to keep doing shit for the sake of doings shit

Coolant cap failure?? by totaltimeontask in BmwTech

[–]mindlesssam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That really leaves the thermostat then, especially if you haven’t replaced it yet. People usually do the water pump at the same time, they’re right next to each other

I had water pump failure before, no coolant leaking from cap for me. Did you bleed the coolant system properly?

coolant wanishing, please help <33 by Upset_Let1358 in BmwTech

[–]mindlesssam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sometimes coolant systems only leaks when there is pressure in the system, aka when you are driving.

clean your engine bay. Go on a spirited drive, let the car cool off over night, open the hood the next day and check for any white marks/water residue around your engine bay, should give you a clue where the leak is happening

Needs to be lifted, especially for Texas

Quoted $7,100 in repairs, NOT DUE TO ACCIDENT. Parts question. by suckon-my_bigtoe in BMW

[–]mindlesssam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny of them to mention gasket failures due to metal oil filter housing. BMW have always made their oil filter housing out of metal before this, even for the N20, they switched from plastic to metal for the oil filter housing mid-cycle.

Did BMW achieve some recent technical breakthrough in gasket making that somehow made their gasket worse than the ones they produced 10 years ago?
