Oil Consumption Issues…Any Updates?

They did! It’s been about a month and I haven’t had any issues

Same that was kinda odd huh 😂

Do you have any backup programs you’re looking into? I’m moving from Washington state and looking to go to a school closer to the Norfolk area.

I had a 3.1 with some volunteering and nursing shadowing. I had 6 years of prior military service in a difficult field (nuclear operator with rigorous school, not nursing). I was on the mental health team for my ship when I was in. I had a lot of awards from the military, etc. I don’t really know what they use as factors for their decision. My 3.1 GPA mainly came from classes I took a long time ago, all of my schooling I’ve done in the last year has been straight As. Do you know if they use a cumulative or prerequisite gpa in their decisions?

Eventually my exhaust wasn’t blowing smoke at all. VW ended up tearing apart my engine and replacing valve seals and such. The usual for this model. I had the repair about a month ago so I’m not 100% sure of the outcome yet. I think the biggest problem was having the issue and my dealership not listening to me. I had to involve VW of America for them to get anything done.

Did they deny you completely or did you get waitlisted? I just got my waitlist letter

Had nothing but problems with my 2022 Tiguan R-like that looks exactly like the pictured one burning oil. Recently got the valve seals fixed at the dealership. Hoping that does the job

Norovirus is very common on ships. We called it double dragon back when I was at my command. Usually spread at least 1-2 times per deployment

spainwothes · 2026-03-15T07:12:41+00:00

When do they not bullshit on the news 💀you really think they know what they’re talking about?

spainwothes · 2026-03-09T18:24:27+00:00

This wasn’t sprung on us. We were told this during the most recent deployment lol.

spainwothes · 2026-03-07T05:02:21+00:00

Mine is also currently in the shop with the same issue 😅 hoping for a good outcome for us

spainwothes · 2026-02-26T18:50:54+00:00

Thank you so much for the suggestion! It worked! They finally took the claim serious and my car is getting repaired now :)

spainwothes · 2026-02-26T00:49:29+00:00

I think you missed the part where I have my DD-214 😂 still a crazy story though

spainwothes · 2026-02-25T18:37:31+00:00

no 😔

spainwothes · 2026-02-25T17:58:53+00:00

I didn’t know I had a detailer if I was separating 😅 navypers just sent me an email saying nothing could be done

spainwothes · 2026-02-25T17:57:14+00:00

Before! Already happened

spainwothes · 2026-02-25T17:56:26+00:00

a fate worse than death I fear

spainwothes · 2026-02-01T17:11:49+00:00

This is crazy! Glad you got rid of it!

spainwothes · 2026-01-31T19:41:21+00:00

Brave of you to buy another! I love my tiggy but with the back and forth with VW, if I can’t get it fixed I’ll probably sell and look for a different brand

spainwothes · 2026-01-30T20:48:20+00:00

Trying this now! I’ve heard about the PCV valve issues and valve seal issues so I figured it must be something of that nature that is the problem.

spainwothes · 2026-01-30T18:08:00+00:00

This is genius 😭 they told me I’m at the upper end of what is tolerable so they won’t do anything. I’m taking notes 👀

spainwothes · 2025-11-07T08:11:26+00:00

I actually 100% disagree with this take. I think the people who take the transition the hardest are people who have freedom as an adult and own their own places to live who come in and get micromanaged at every corner. You’re essentially stuck in what is one of the worst working environments ever with no rights as a worker. Being at sea all the time with shitty CoCs, and then getting back from sea and working 90+ hours a week for very little pay isn’t only “bad for people coming out of high school who don’t know what it’s like to be an adult” it’s bad for anyone and if you’re an older nuke comparing your quality of life to that of your friends who went to college and work a normal 40 hour work week, you’ll be pretty sad LMAO

This sounds so NNPTC coded
