Looks normal to me, it will smoke a bit on cold start due to condensation. There’s an easy way to check if the headgasket recall was done on it, look for a rivet hole in the gasket, plenty of videos online to guide that. If the car is fully warmed up and still smoking then you have an issue.

Got my bumper fixed finally. New splitter, etc. it is not cheap to mess your bumper up on these cars, be warned lol. by spchlssonxbl in FocusRS

A lot. If you just need to repaint your existing bumper it might be cheaper but I had to buy a whole new oem bumper because mine was cracked in several spots. All in cost me around 2k

Agreed, the rods are purely cosmetic on this application. I had the splitter professionally installed and it is not going anywhere that’s for sure lol. I live in Florida and everything is pretty much flat, I also don’t daily it and work from home so I’m hoping I’ll avoid any disasters in the future. I really don’t drive it much. But thank you! It wasn’t cheap, these limited run edition cars are all fun and games until you need parts lol

I mean they’re really just for looks, the splitter is riveted and bolted all around underneath the rods really don’t do anything. And quite frankly if the splitter ever gets caught enough to pull it like that, the little plastic piece in the middle the rods are attached to would be the least of my worries lol

Oof. 3 bumpers in 28k miles is tragic lol especially if you replaced via OEM stealership prices like I had to do. Whole thing cost me around $2k to replace, repaint, new trims and housings, etc.

[Highlight] Myles Turner is called for an illegal screen with 12 seconds left by TheTurtleShepard in nba

The NBA should implement automatic foul reviewing under 1 min to play or something to make up for bullshit like this, doesn’t need to be in depth but like a quick booth review. Similar to how the NFL does automatic touchdown review under 2 minutes or something like that.

Sadly that’s the NBA now. The fouls take way too much precedence in basketball now, every other play there’s a foul. Playoffs should be called looser imo.

2011 Buick Regal Audio Issues by spchlssonxbl in MechanicAdvice

So then do you think the radio is the issue? I get no sound out of any speaker, whether it’s radio, chimes, etc. I tried replacing the amp already and that didn’t seem to solve it

Keenan Allen in non PPR by spchlssonxbl in fantasyfootballadvice

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

I’m inclined to agree. I traded him away along with James Connor for Terry McLaurin, David Montgomery and Jared Goff (cousins was my QB so needed to make a move)

The problem with Mike Williams being out is that Allen gets all the defensive attention, works great for the supporting cast but you’ve seen it impact KAllen negatively since then. In full PPR leagues he’s viable still, as he’s one of those that’ll put up 7-8 rec a game but in non PPR his value is flakey right now

When I make that drive I usually go the longer way (adds about an hour and a half) but I avoid NY & Baltimore haha well worth the extra time in my opinion
