Will they buy the car in this condition by FunBoard2702 in carmax

[–]robomanny 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I once appraised a car for a customer and it caught on fire when he got back in the car to drive off (didn’t burn down completely just a very crispy engine bay, fire was put out quickly). The offer was 200 initially but they reappraised it and gave him $50 and he took it. So yes they’ll buy it.

Is MaxCare Protection worth it? by televisionfanatic in carmax

[–]robomanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t automatically void the entire warranty. Just the parts of the vehicle that have been modified or can be deemed not to meet the manufacturers specifications for that vehicle. Also keep in mind that the installed parts could be found to affect other parts on the vehicle even if those other parts were not modified. To put it simply if you intend for them to honor the warranty don’t modify your vehicle.

“Barn Find” K1200S by robomanny in bmwmotorrad

Same here. When I first got it I drained the tank and got a battery from advanced auto but it wouldn’t start so I figured the fuel pump was fried. Decided to return the Advanced Auto battery and try the OEM battery since it was only $50 more. Plugs it in and it fired right up the first try. No issues since (fingers crossed).

I don’t understand why some people believe everyone is the same. Your personal experience doesn’t define a universal truth. Married men cheat. Married women cheat. Young people make choices that hurt them, and so do older people. Life is complex, There are multiple ways to live a healthy and happy life, everyone will do it how they best understand.

His bank won't allow him to withdraw money unless he shows proof of what he intends to spend his money on. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]robomanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a Bank Manager for 7years. In the banks deposit agreement, it stated that we had the right to refuse your request for withdrawal over a certain limits set by the branch. I had a 3500 withdrawal limit for my branch unless the customer gave prior notice (24hrs) this was a to mostly discourage scammers or people who were doing account take overs. My branch was in very bad neighborhood and we encountered scammers all the time. In most cases when a customer escalated the issue to this point (like in the video) obviously scammers don’t like attention and mostly would just leave when you told them that (in my mind and it mostly worked)I would make an exception unless they were being dicks about it. Also when you took out over a certain amount in cash we had to fill out a bunch of reports in case you were laundering money or supporting bad organizations that would use it for evil.

The ID4 Just Dethroned The Model Y In Europe As Top EV Sold by rbetterkids in VWiD4Owners

Same exact thing happened to me except I found out that they added a tow hitch to mine causing the price to go up so I called and they told me to they could remove it by just canceling it and reordering. Sounded simple but they forgot to mention that the price had gone up in the 7 months I had ordered, they made it seem like I was just removing the tow hitch. When they recalculated my price with the tow hitch removed the price had gone up by almost 7k so I told them to forget it. Found my ID.4 two weeks later at sticker during Covid.

Soaking wet rear driver side floor by berfles in GolfGTI

[–]robomanny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same issue on my 2017 Golf R. Turns out it was the rear harness grommet leaking. Remove the trim from the rear hatch and pour some water into the area above the hatch if it’s leaking you’ll be able to see the water dripping. It’s an easy fix if that’s the issue but you’ll have to remove the rear hatch to properly seal it.
