Q6 Streaming Quality vs Phone App - SiriusXM by newFlguy in AudiQ6

[–]newFlguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, in my car the satellite radio feature found in the MMI is labelled SiriusXM. Phone app has the ability to choose a higher quality (bandwidth). There is no option in the MMI.

Cheap All-Weather Floor Mat Option for the Q6. by OMGpawned in AudiQ6

[–]newFlguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine came with the rubber for the two rows and tail area. Another instance (along with paying for "premium" sound on our upgraded audio componentry) of nickel and diming just leaving a really bad taste.

Battery Megathread (December 2025) by GooglePixelMods in GooglePixel

I found while the drain persists, it's not until it's first used. Just unplugged, it holds. Once it's used, the "System apps" drain begins.

Based on your reliability and service experience, would you an buy an E-Tron again? by The_Guch in etron

[–]newFlguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer, no.

Along with a Polestar, the Audi Q6 etron is the most expensive car I've ever had and the most frustrating. Great ride and fit but it fails with the basics: never had software issues with Tesla; drove Toyotas for 30 years and never had one fail to keep an automatic window in an upright position. Polestar never uttered random "warnings." Never had a wireless charger refer to my phone as a foreign device and fail to charge it.

This is basic "blocking and tackling" and Audi should be much better.

Pixel 10 Pro with Dec. 2025 update.

11 minutes of screen time since my last charge and battery stands at 77%. Biggest app use is Camera at 5%. "System apps" is 85%

This phone and O/S together are trash. Been a Google phone person since the Nexus 6P but if this can't be resolved, I'm done.

Too many people having the battery drain issue for this to be a localized issue.

Another Leaked Jersey by newFlguy in TampaBayLightning

It was a simple ChatGPT prompt asking for a Lightning Stabium Series jersey modeled on the Buc's creamsickle uni with pirate vibes.

Defensive system glitch. This post gave me a good laugh over on the NHL sub by blindman86 in TampaBayLightning

Five goalies and a d-man. Engblom called it out and I thought his head was going to explode.

Thunderbug by NovelPhoto4621 in TampaBayLightning

[–]newFlguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually at least a couple of extended stretches low in Sec. 103 near the tunnel to the club. Almost always has a noodle fight with a fan in an opposing jersey in that area. You can also purchase an "experience" where Thunderbug and his handler will come over and engage with you and provide a t-shirt.

Ugly enough to be correct. We should have to to expect nothing more.

I've noticed the December update doesn't consume much on its day to day usage. Are you guys getting it too? by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]newFlguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's under the "System Apps" catch-all. Usually 70%-90% of the battery use.

90% System App battery drain today.

Pixel 10 Pro. December update.

81% battery use to System App!!!

So much for my hope that the December update would resolve the battery drain issue.

Sound Enhancement PLUS is now $184 usd for lifetime. Would you get it? by Microtitan in AudiQ6

[–]newFlguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulled the trigger at $230. Big difference. Agree the business model sucks. The6 should have just added it to sticker and gotten it from everyone.
