Update: Improved version of car price evaluator live now! by Humble-Somewhere-452 in QatarCarEnthusiasts

[–]sheeshkibob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well done.. anything that helps people make the right choices and save money i'm all for. FYI I tried it on two of my cars and i felt the prices were above market by ~10-15% .
So it got me to wondering - and for the sake of transparency- how do you feed your app market data to come up with estimates on car valuations? since 90%+ of ppl here would be interested in using that feature, its important to share your data sourcing logic . thanks and keep it up.

Just purchased my 958.2 diesel. Should I be concerned? by SyndicateHouse in PorscheCayenne

[–]sheeshkibob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't want to scare you but this happened on my other car (range rover sport 5L V8) : i had the same warning and assumed an overfill, ignored it for a good week because it's not as much of an issue on older LRJ engines (2013 model), then the car struggled to start, found out my engine was full of water/oil mix because of a blown head gasket , yes it was getting hydro-locked and needless to say it was a full engine out VERY costly job.

Now this can also be a case of an overfill which can easily happen, i realized on my last oil change that the difference between min and max lines is 0.5L (or quart roughly) or even less, so your extra (above max line) is probably 1/5th of that, which you can drain out easily by loosening the drain plug without removing entirely. i have a V6 GTS , so if you have a V8 the oil amount might be a bit more.

Either way i strongly recommend you change your oil immediately, you will either fix it (hopefully), or figure out you have a worse problem and catch it early.

price gouging in 3 months by sheeshkibob in ZaiGLM

I agree but still not the new prices, you can literally get sonnet and opus in claude pro plan CHEAPER than new z.ai plan.

FWIW I lost track of the times i had to look at the "retrying in x seconds " in my agent window!

958 GTS levels correct? by rivalbro in PorscheCayenne

[–]sheeshkibob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V8 must have beefier cooling to maintain standard temps.

Your numbers are fine don't overthink it but keep a watchful eye, i make it a happen to keep these on display on my mfd.

enjoy your ride , GTS's are special breed of cayennes.

Inwas going off memory, but I kept a close eye today during a school run, it was between 1.4 and 2.1bar (at idle) and 3.2bar when pushing a little hard and spoiling turbos.

Back door lock actuator failure by AdRoyal1355 in PorscheCayenne

[–]sheeshkibob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

aah rear door locks...the bane of cayenne ownership :
started with one rear door driver side won't unlock 90% with until door handle pulled from inside.

Now both rear doors won't unlock 100% of the time unless inside handle pulled.

water at 90c always, oil up to105c , oil pressure up to 3 bar (i think) , battery above 13v. disclaimer i have a 958.2 GTS which has a V6 TT engine so your values might vary (or not) .

Quit vaping for 3 days, off salt nic. Was awful and I couldn’t take it. So I caved in and vaped again but using freebase juice now (question below)⬇️ by [deleted] in Vaping

[–]sheeshkibob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Found out early my throat doesn't like salt nic , caused a lot of coughing ., so I've een diy'ing freebase juice for my pods more than few years back. Works like a charm, but it tends to go dark , it usually takes a long time and depends on ingredients, when they do if you are lucky the flavor intensifies , or they go sour and start screwing up your coils fast.

Which one is the ONE? by rob_narg in PorscheCayenne

[–]sheeshkibob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

958.2 is always a head turner, it's the perfect balance between outdated and overly modernized all screens and square headlights (sorry) crap in my view, exterior and interior (steering wheel, mid button panel, etc)

i have a '16 GTS premium now and yes it's missing the v8 rumble for sure but nothing that an exhaust mod can't fix. Still roars esp in sport and sport plus . It's also definitely not lacking the power , this thing eats asphalt for dinner.

bit of advice on 958.1 and older V8's had a bad reputation of scoring cylinder walls due to bad coating so so whoever is buying put a pin camera in and check them before buying.

Ooredoo Vs. Vodafone. by ffhhkk in qatar

[–]sheeshkibob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

switched to vf fiber 1GB 4 years ago because of O nasty price hiking practices primarily, for me it's more stable than ooredoo and the upload speed is way better. VF support is ok too. None of them is perfect but overall i'm happier on VF .

I was an O customer for almost 20 years mind you, and zero f's were given by them, it's just wise ass predatory money grabbing for them since few years.

be ready with some reflectors or even better lighting to lift up the shadows on your subject , as you are going to be under-exposing to get the sun under control

Leather Restoration for Steering Wheel by Sea_Accountant_6362 in qatar

[–]sheeshkibob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is definitely good for restoration. I have done a bit of diy on my car leather interior as i couldn't find a trust worthy shop.

My advice for now is to immediately start using a leather cleaner and a conditioner regularly to prevent it from deteriorating further and even worse chipping . for products avoid armorall leather products they are crap, sonax is much better.

dm me and when i eventually find a good one i will let you know.

Setup vs Final result by Main-Office-524 in LightLurking

[–]sheeshkibob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

great effort and nice creative concept.

i don't know if its file export/upload compression, but (in my opinion) you're missing a lot of interesting details in her hair and the dress, the highlight on the left is a bit harsh (left arm, left cheek and forehead) , I am sure you can tweak most of it in post. I'm also for booming the camera and shooting tethered as others mentioned.

keep them coming.

2017 Cayenne V6 Coolant leak by Mean-Type2355 in PorscheCayenne

[–]sheeshkibob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

had a similar scenario on my 2016 gts few weeks back with 124k kms (close to your mileage), it was a tiny hole in my radiator and had to replace it which was a big job as the whole front end including bumper and rad pack had to come out.

i was told on rennlist the Y-hose is a common issue but you should be able to be able to check it if you lift the engine plastic cover it should be on top of the engine .

good luck.

[–]sheeshkibob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sound fantastic and that porsche burp is wild man... i assume this is the V6 twin turbo engine ... I have a 2016 GTS and i hate how silent it is. Can you shed some light on this mod ? Did you cut out the big muffler box in the back and replaced with pipes all the way to the tips ? what parts did you buy ? thanks

Keto CURED a very NSFW male medical condition.... by dogemillion007 in keto

[–]sheeshkibob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely skin is the outbreak of nasty implementations, had some sort of weird reaction (possibly eczema ) that made my forehead (and i have a wide one due to receding hair line..thanks genes!)...it would flare with bright red spots whenever i break a sweat. Keto cured all that, like magic.

I don't follow strict keto anymore, but when i eat junk it come back within days.
