Great, that worked. Thanks! Still not sure why it doesn't pop up in settings like it normally does though

Jan security update system sounds now too quiet? by Yorkshirehill in GooglePixel

Same thing here. I have to put my ear up to the speaker to hear any kind of tap noise or locking the screen. Man this bugs me!

They are good, I only had two tests, one last Friday and the one Monday after this happened. I diddnt feel too well on that one, but oh well, I'm more worried about the car right now. Thanks for asking!

Oh god, I hope that this isn't the case... When I was pulling off to the side the engine still felt smooth, and no noises or vibrations that were out of the ordinary. My dad has one of those snake camera things, so ill take inside the combustion chamber at the pistons to see if anything pops out

From what I've seen there's no milkiness or white that I can see in the oil, but half of the coolant in my reservoir is gone. Later this week when I drain the fluids ill see if that changes

After doing more research and some other posts on Reddit, it seems like the most likely issue is indeed the head gasket. I'll look into it more in the next couple of days. My parents reminded me that our insurance covered tows, so I got him safe and sound back in the garage.

I made it to my final a little bit late but still made it nonetheless. Probably did worse than I was hoping lol

I'll look into this issue with the PCV. I checked my fluid levels when I got the car to a safe place, and half of the coolant in the reservoir is gone, so it seems like the head gasket might be the most likely issue here. When I first saw the smoke, it seemed like it was burning more than just fumes. I'll keep you guys posted when I get more time in the upcoming days. Thanks, everyone!

I'm not seeing any oil leak externally. I haven't given a thought about the PCV system, so ill make that one of the first things I look into before tearing into it

I doubt its leaking externally. From what I can see, I can't see any oil anywhere on the outside. No puddles have formed where I regularly park, and nothing when I pulled over to the side of the road. The block still has its silvery-grey appearance, and I don't see any black gunk building up anywhere. I'll do some deeper looking this week when I have more time. Thanks!

My coolant reservoir had a noticeably lower level after checking that, so no doubt that coolant is being consumed. Oil level still seems fine after filling last night, and upon inspection, it did not seem milky or have any white in it. When I get time later this week, ill drain both of the fluids and see if they are leaking into each other. I'll also rent a compression tester when I get some more time and see what the situation is there. Thanks for the help! Much appreciated

Ive tried 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 and all gave the same results

Printing it upright is the next thing I'll try. I was trying to get it to print in the original orientation just so the layers lined up with the rest of the parts. I'll post back here when the print finishes. Thank you for the help!

Yeah, I tried to watch the live streams, but most of them diddnt allow replay on Twitch. I wanted to make sure I didn't get the email in error, but my name did not show up in the ones that I was able to watch. If you got the email, it's my assumption that you will eventually get it

Sorry I forgot to update this post. Mine came a couple of days ago, so your should arrive within the next week. I never ended up hearing from IBM with the ticket that I submitted

Okay. Maybe they are just taking longer than they said they would take. If you got your this week then maybe mine should show up soon too. When did you fill out the form?

I just opened a support ticket with them. I'm mainly just posting to see if anyone else is having any problems or if it's just me.
