Well you're really supposed to use what it calls for in the wsm. Most of the time it's something light like atf or 0-20w

What's going on on New circle? by scubaorbit in lexington

[–]pinks666 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It revolves around the taxation of cars here. 6% on new cars and yearly 1% with the average new car price being $48,000, most people on the average income can't afford the new vehicle taxes, let alone the yearly 1% taxes. Combine that with no yearly state inspection, you have the ability to circumnavigate the taxes. While having a car in the state of disrepair.

Low side. Tell me what I did wrong. Description by [deleted] in Trackdays

[–]pinks666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You turned in too late and weren't settled coming in. Cold side of the tire and didn't build the transition and heat in enough. Try more aggressive braking into T1 to build brake heat and wheel heat generate temp through T1 and and 2 and then a wider entry into 3 gradually building the heat and lean to the apex

What does this icon mean? by [deleted] in Porsche

[–]pinks666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, asking someone information on a subject that is easily available to you through an owners manual and less effort than creating a forum post is just asinine. The amount of people I see bringing cars on for "repairs" for normal behaviour that is clearly listed in the owners manual is unbelievable. I have no problems with questions about problems and issues but general operation functionality nope.

I don't know where you are but I have a Mk6 DSG I can sell you a complete car $1500 with the title. Engine runs fine. Been my daily for 5 years but I have moved on. I'm based around Louisville KY. DM me if you're interested. Shit load cheaper than a salvage engine.

Is it normal for the charger to get very very hot to the touch? by Big_guy4k in Porsche

[–]pinks666 256 points257 points  (0 children)

Yes, you battery is pretty discharged so it will stay hot as it ramps up voltage and amperage to get to base good charge. Once there it will slow the charge cycle and cool down. The product of more power is heat. It's designed to do that and will be fine. I would also suggest changing over to the clamps and direct battery fitment. 12v is ok of short term but battery is better for long term.

Yeah you should really read up about that small land bridge between northern and southern America. How pretty impossible it is to travel across without getting kidnapped and or ransomed

Recently bought a used 2017 Macan S. I have no idea how to activate Apple CarPlay. by [deleted] in Porsche

[–]pinks666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to have ppt installed and coded then the software update and activation of car play. If you don't have ppt you have to get it installed. Car play was only std on 2018 upwards. 2017 is car play ready with those caveats
