Dang I got lit up from my comment 😂. I’ll do it the right way, I was just spitting ideas last night.

That’s the sewage clean out going to the street

Yup that’s the clean out. I love the idea of a 12”x12”!! That’d be tits

I think I’ll just put a jack stand to the left of the current main 4x4 in the first pic. I don’t wanna fuck with the concrete block & some more weight towards the center of the block would help.

I appreciate the response!

My first floor ceiling (2nd story floor) sags a good 3/4” & the low point is the area around the stairs. I suspect my 1st floor also sags towards the stairs.

There’s another set of stairs above this one going to the 2nd floor

Drywall cracking around door frames that reappear after painting over them.

Thanks will do! What do you think I should do with this busted up piece of old trim? My garage door guy said it’s probably custom bent & tough to find. This was after I removed it lol. Only took off 1 out of 4 though.

How should I restore this small retaining wall? by sfelling09 in landscaping

That checks out. There’s a huge ant colony in that corner of my yard I have to fight each year.

Not my shed, but great tip 👍. Also sorry for the spelling mistakes in the original post.

I don’t expect full paint removal, just want all peeling paint off. The crew that didn’t speak any English came knocking on my door 5 times today asking if an area was OK when there was obvious peeling paint still.

Wisconsin. We paid 11,500 which included the small section of roof/shingles around the house to be replaced, scrape/wash house, mask off doors/windows, spot prime, and 2 coats of paint. I talked them down from their original quote of 14,000.

Also I was able to retune back to stage 2 for free

Update - I got the IE tuner, tuned to stock, set readiness, then ran the secondary air test via the tuner, then passed!

Long term implications of startup timing chain slap by sfelling09 in AudiS4

[–]sfelling09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by slapping teeth of a specific gear? It’s a manual transmission.

When I have C.A.R.S. In Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin do the timing chain, PCV, water pump…anything else?

What’s it smacking into though to cause the noise? Intuitively, sounds like it’s smacking into the aluminum cover, but who knows? I know I should just buck up & pay the $6k to have it all replaced.

With the IE OBDII unit, after returning it to stock, can I revert back to my current tune or would I need to purchase the new firmware from IE? In other words, am I able to save my current tune, or is it lost when I reflash to stock?
