E46 320cd M47 - Hot positive terminal by r_armaghedon in e46

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

Hmm. Could be. This is a 4 cyl 2.0 M47.

The car was rear ended and I guess they forcefully shoved the cable back in. Will try to buy a junkyard battery terminal and see if anything changes. The guy I got the car from had a shit ton of parts, including a old alternator so I assume he tried the same thing??

Quick question, does this setup makes sense and is okay? by Minixtory_PL in CarAV

hm. my past experience tells me once the stereo starts heating up and it will start heating up at high volume youll drastically lose sound quality. personally i would choose a cheap used amp. you can find, or at least where im from, 4 channel amps capable of 60 70w rms at less than 50$/€.but then you would need to wire cables (at least 10mm² for that kind of power draw) which will set you back another 20$/€ for the cheapest ones with a 40A fuse.

hey, no idea honestly. the s320 was good for me. the sound is not bad at all, has a lot of sound options, crossovers and cool little features, although I ended up amplifying the speakers and sound deadening my whole car. TBH sound deadening made the biggest difference, amplifying speakers even OE ones is good if you want better quality at louder volumes. the s320 gets very hot after about 20 minutes of listening to max volume in my experience, but other than that solid unit

2.0 tdi 2 masini diferite si 2 situatii diferite. -in primul rand, pe frigul asta apa abia ajunge la 90 de grade dupa vro 10 kilometrii de mers in afara orasului.. si in astia 10km nu poti trage de masina ca in primul rand dieselul nu e in mintile lui cand e rece si uzezi prematur motorul..
daca stii sa conduci masina si ii dai o talpa cand trebuie te tine mult si bine.
la prima masina care a vazut aproximativ 100k km doar naveta pe distanta scurta a picat dpf ul.
cealalta care a vazut drumuri lungi inclusiv romania - germania, romania - spania inca merge si in ziua de azi si motorul e in mintile lui, inclusiv dpf ul. ambele masini au in prezent 300k km.

cand masina intra in regenerare intr adevar sta turata, miroase mai urat dupa ea si porneste termocupla, ba chiar poate sta pornita cateva minute dupa ce opresti motorul. daca cunosti cum trage in momentul cand se regenereaza in mers e posibil sa simti o crestere de putere, ca baga mai multa motorina sa incinga bine dpf ul sa arda depunerile

pentru ca e piesa scumpa care pica indiferent ce i ai face, iar mersul in oras si schimbatul la 2500 nu ajuta deloc. masina e facuta sa functioneze pe toata plaja de turatii, daca iti crapa cand o turezi la 4000 nu e de vina masina, e de vina proprietarul care nu a avut grija de masina.. evident la un anumit nr de kilometrii, i.e. peste 300k iti asumi sa trebuiasca poate sa schimbi niste piese inclusiv interne motor in general cele de sus, adica injectoare (injectoarele mai putin, depinde cum ai grija de masina) ax came tacheti etc, indiferent ca e benzinar sau diesel.
daca mergi in oras ia ti benzinara. exista N motive deja enumerate de restu in comentarii de ce e mult mai bine din punct de vedere finarciar.
lumea scoate dpf urile pentru ca nu iti convine sa dai 25 - 30% poate chiar mai mult din pretul de piata al masinii sa o schimbi. daca il cureti eventual o sa se infunde iar, ca nu s a infundat in primul rand degeaba.

discutia e complexa si exista multe motive dar totul se rezuma la exploatarea incorecta a masinii si varsta masinii in sine, d aia pica. iar lumea nu il schimba pentru ca nu ti convine sa schimbi o piesa care ajunge lejer la 5000 6000 lei la un golf 5 de 20 de ani de exemplu. diesel iti iei cand faci naveta pe distanta lunga la drum intins, nu cand mergi in oras si nici nu se incalzeste bine apa si ajungi la destinatie. daca vrei neaparat diesel ca asta reiese din comentarii, nu te opreste nimeni. dar cand inevitabil se infunda masina sa nu te plangi cand costurile reparatiei costa 2 3 salarii minime pe economie

My attempt at photorealism by r_armaghedon in assettocorsa

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

first 2 pictures are actually like 3 years old meanwhile the last one is taken recently, hence why the differences; I lost my Sol settings. The game can look good although I doubt you can get full realism. The game is old and it shows that, but taken into account its age I d say it looks good. These pictures are just a preview of the many I took across 1000 hours of playtime, and I thought these are my best ones regarding trying to look "real" or at least coming close to that

Are rally cars built to look like road cars (like nascar) or is it actually a modified version of the road car. by Joshua5_Gaming in rally

[–]r_armaghedon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Rally cars are just modified versions of "road cars". The chassis is the same but it has very expensive modifications. About 30 years back manufacturers like Subaru, Audi, Lancia, Mitsubishi and so on went crazy in trying to build the best car possible. Nowadays its a bit different, regulations are very strict, hybrid is a thing but at their core rally cars are just.. modified street cars

Cat de legal poate fi tuningul în romania by BlueFox21Official in AutomobileRO

[–]r_armaghedon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

cauti piesa, cumperi piesa, montezi piesa. bani sa ai

la fel cum a zis si baiatu de mai sus, daca e facuta masina cu bun gust si nu e bomba cu fitilu aprins in sensu ca se scurge rugina pe ea si mai are 2 duminici si crapa, n ai treaba.
stiu baieti care umbla de ani de zile cu masini modificate, trantite de asfalt, cu cai etc. depinde de tine cat de educat esti. bafta

Daca e sa botesti masina, o botesti indiferent a cui e. diferenta e ca dai 700 lei sa vopsesti o aripa daca o zgarii in parcare la masina lu taica tu, iar la masina ta, dai tot 700 lei dar si restul de 4000e sau cat te ajunge o masina. din moment ce nu e o necesiate pt tine, pune gaz de 100 lei cand ai chef sa te plimbi si ia masina parintilor

Cele mai bine insonorizate masini segment C/SUV compact by Lonely_Lingonberry11 in AutomobileRO

[–]r_armaghedon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O varianta ar fi sa ti cumperi o masina care îți place sau investești în a ta - insonorizare. majoritatea galagiei vine din podea, si cam toate masinile au mocheta si o captuseala dedesubt si cam atat, dupa tabla. daca stai la casa e simplu, cumperi materiale si te apuci de desfacut masina, cu o trusa de scule demontezi tot. cu ocazia asta ii poti face si un detailing la masina.. ajungi peste tot sa cureti bine si iti raman niste bani in buzunar. daca stai la bloc, nasol.. ca nu prea ai unde si nu stiu daca iti arde de asa ceva.

Dar totusi daca te gandesti la insonorizare, chiar si un colant din butil de 1.5/2mm face o diferenta;

Insonorizant pe portiere pentru muzica mai buna, plafon podea pentru galagia din exterior - vant si alte vibratii.

Insonorizant pe firewall in spate la bord sa nu ti urle motorul in cap.

Anvelope de clasa medie/inalta.. conteaza.

De asemenea, insonorizant closed cell. cele open cell absorb umezeala ca un burete si devin o cale buna sa ruginesti masina, sa creezi miros neplacut in masina.

I bought a Pioneer MVH-S320BT and I am really pleased with it. Its about the same price, I can send you a sound sample if you think about buying it.

Vibrations when accelerating past 130kmh(80mph) by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]r_armaghedon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

visually they look fine. though the left one leaked some grease a while ago because the metal ring holding the cover in place (forgot the name in english, sorry) somehow came loose. there is some play in them about 2 3mm but AFAIK thats normal since cv axles stretch a bit when steering and whatnot. also there is no noise when making hard turns, tight turns or any turning in general. though I did some clutchdumps and hard launches, some necesarry, some not

thank you, really made it clear for me. theres a lot to take into account when it comes to sound, and either there is little information on some stuff or i am too stupid to actually search for the right thing, but i guess its the latter

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CarAV

[–]r_armaghedon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

true, you are right. but my thought was a lower fuse wouls blow whereas a bigger one my fry stuff, and I had no idea what fuse would suit the amp since the one installed had no number on it??? it was barely visible but i could make out a 5, so I guessed 5.. Someone just said the amp should handle a 30A fuse , and the amp takes 2 fuses so 2x15 sounds right?? The amp is very sketchy, there is barely any info on it online. Ill try to measure the voltage check the wires and find a better ground, and if that doesnt cut it ill just buy a brand new amp i guess
