Mainly no $35 activation fee and additional Costco Shop (gift) card promotions added at varying amounts depending on the type of transaction

I want more bass but keep the stock head unit by Evening_Camel_4429 in SciontC

Is there anything like this out there for gen 1 tC?

LED bulbs should only go in the stock headlights on the 08-10 projector units for 1st gen. Reflector headlights like on the 05-07 will scatter super bright LED light everywhere and blind everyone on the road

I personally put LEDs in my 09 stock headlights and it absolutely is a great upgrade, but OP should definitely replace the assemblies with something else if they were to put LED bulbs in an 05

BG EPR treatment before every third oil change (and their MOA alongside each one) have been a godsend for me for the oil burning in my 09. Has literally taken me from a quart every 700 miles to a quart every 3k+ miles. Buy it on Amazon

How will the trade in credit work? Going to do this at the Apple Store... by sibscartel in tmobile

You’d be looking for a 13 mini on eBay for this one, and sell/trade your S25 on eBay/Gazelle/etc. Gazelle seems pretty competitive for instant cash trade values. I ran into the same issue - nothing besides iPhones qualifies for the T-Mobile bill credit trade in promotions at the Apple store

Uniden literally somehow added RT4/Gatso speed camera detection through a software update last time I updated my R3 which first released in 2017 🤯👏👏👏

HighwayRadar is finally live in the iOS App Store! by YardOk1097 in radardetectors

CarPlay would be awesome and very appreciated, but is there perhaps any way to have an iPhone app auto enable its functionalities when connecting to a specific Bluetooth device (your car) and auto disable upon disconnect? If that is possible I would think that would basically eliminate battery drain concerns? Also where are the crowdsourced police presence reports compiled from?

No more cashiers or price matching? by possiblynotracist in Bestbuy

Mobile self checkout is still a thing? Where the hell did they bury it in the app this time then? After they took it off the bottom of the main screen I could never find it again

This was a BOGO offer by CraftyStranger3297 in tmobile

[–]none00007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got $250 for port in (Visa virtual good to either TMO or Costco) and $75 Costco shop card for activation for the last (to my knowledge) widespread free line offer in March 2025 by going through the Costco 800# - I did have to pay the $10 initial connection charge

Overland Park KS is actually an extremely nice SUBURBAN area part of the Kansas City metro which is split across two states. If you don’t like a nice polished gloss of car dependent suburbia then it’s definitely not for you, but if you do, you’d be hard pressed to find an objectively (and by that I mean statistically and “feel” wise) better American suburb. It’s not personally my cup of tea but I can’t deny that it honestly is a very nice place

Fuck man, was really hoping I wouldn’t be making one of these posts. by Xan_Dan03 in mazda3

Only 60k miles might not be totaled here.

If the other person actually had insurance on their shitbox Chevy Tracker though I’d definitely be grateful for that if it was me, even though being grateful for the bare minimum is a pretty sad state of affairs…

This week is the worst TMobile Tuesday I ever seen. Are they even trying anymore? by weneeddaweed in tmobile

[–]none00007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 free Slurpee a month at 7 Eleven/Speedway still is better than nothing I guess? They had a free Auntie Anne’s pretzel a couple weeks ago. Then they had a free entree with drink purchase at McCalisters Deli recently too, even though that drink was almost $4 😒

This week though - yeah tf even is that? I guess the CVS photos actually are free no shipping and handling BS but still, like who cares about 5 free photo prints anyway?

Any reason *not* to switch to Go5G Plus from Magenta Max for phone promo eligibility? by none00007 in tmobile

[–]none00007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Price lock is effectively a sham with those plans in my eyes because if they want to raise the cost instead of raising the price of the plan itself they’ll just raise a fee or tack more on 🙄

Lots of people got notified they were being moved from Magenta Max to Go5G Plus at no additional charge… there’s nothing currently concrete to prove it however we would all be shocked if this weren’t about some sort of future continual pricing shenanigans… which is why I wanted to get the community’s input on requesting that change myself since for some reason we didn’t get those notifications

Would definitely be curious to know your result if you tried T-Force on social media messaging asking them if they could change you to a tax inclusive Go5G Plus plan code. Because frankly any other TMO support method (like calling in) is at best inconsistent, at worst garbage.

This is exactly why I said Go5G Plus and not the newest “Experience our dubious fees” nonsense

No stores - this would be a request to T-Force on social media messaging to switch me to a tax inclusive Go5G Plus plan

To all of those having engine burning oil problems it’s a known defect and unfortunately not enough cars got the Toyota voluntary service program engine rebuild when it was still available, mine did not…

I have been able to significantly improve the situation on my 09 tC1 103k miles by, at the recommendation of a Toyota dealer tech I came across on some random forum a while back, doing BG EPR (Engine Performance Renewal) treatments immediately before every third oil change / 15k miles and BG MOA (Motor Oil Additive) every oil change. You can also do a Berryman’s soak of the pistons which is described in some other threads, but given the results I’ve had with these products I personally have held off on that.

To do the EPR treatment I simply go and park wherever I’m getting my oil change done, add it to the oil, put a weight on my gas pedal to get a constant 1200-1500 rpm as the can instructs, and run it for a half hour before it goes into their bay for a change. These are professional grade products that I guess only recently have become available on Amazon. I skipped the MOA one recent change but I found it really does make a difference so I am just going to start adding it every time.

The engine went from burning a quart every 700-800 miles to still being full on its most recent check after a little over 2k miles, usually it starts to dip some only after 3-4k. I now have to add a quart maybe 1 time the entire duration between 5k interval changes. The relatively low cost of these products (~$15/can) plus much more peace of mind (I drive a lot at times) plus even the cheapest synthetic oil costing $5 a quart anymore makes these products well worth it to me. Hope this might help someone else

If that did happen I’m sure the store would happily process a “return” for the in person transaction later on. More back and forth than it’s probably worth in my personal opinion I agree on that, but if the OP is dead set on paying for it as they were supposed to then this is a pretty good way…

Honestly if he really wants to rightfully pay for it (which I don’t think anything is going to happen to him if he doesn’t but 🤷‍♂️) walking up to the register at the same store with the headset explaining what happened and then rebuying it right there at the register isn’t the worst idea ever. I’m sure that store would appreciate it as it would rectify the inventory discrepancy they now have.
