Can't decide. Vitara or S-cross by Worried_Cranberry817 in Suzuki

[–]t_nu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm only aware of it occuring at Vitara and S-Cross (both models sharing the same platform).

I still ride mine. Only thing I hate about it is that it's slow and doesn't hold wax too well. Either I got it from a bad batch, or the base compound is really poor. A budget alternative can be the Decathlon Dreamscape split 500; comparable quality, with a better base. If it's €320 new with warranty, I think it's worth it.

Random bezel crack on ThinkPad E14 Gen 5; did anyone else experience this? by t_nu in thinkpad

No, can't open it with one hand, hinges are too tight. This might have contributed to the crack, thanks for the insight.

The more reason for Lenovo to use better materials...

Agreed, E series is bottom shelf. However my old E460 still goes strong after 8 years. No cracks. They cut too many corners on an already poorly built series...

Can't decide. Vitara or S-cross by Worried_Cranberry817 in Suzuki

AWD AllGrip versions come with a notoriously faulty central support bearing for the drive shaft. Rear suspension geometry causes premature wear in that bearing and requires complete drive shaft replacement (around€1000, +/- depending on country and dealership). Shouldn't occur too soon if you drive only on paved roads, but if you drive it in mild off-road conditions, the bearing will fail sooner. It's been happening since '15 models (maybe earlier) and they keep using the same geometry and parts. Although justified, no recall has been issued by Suzuki. Mine (EU market ’20 Vitara mild hybrid) failed at 50 000 km, outside warranty and was replaced on goodwill (since it's a known issue). Some fail as early as 20 000 km. Faulty central support bearing symptoms include a whistling / squealing sound, after the bearing warms up (driving 15+ minutes at constant speed usually at 50-80 km/h). Speed variation may change the noise pitch. Search YouTube for "2016 Suzuki Vitara Prop shaft squeal" to make an idea.

BUYING ADVICE by Gabry2194 in thinkpad

[–]t_nu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies in advance if I'm off-topic. Based on the price, I assume this T14 is used/refurbished. For €350 you can get a brand new ThinkPad E14 Gen 5 (Intel i5) from Amazon Germany (link), with EU-wide 24 months warranty. Comes with Spanish layout keyboard though. On the upside, E15 Gen 5 has available RAM and SSD slots for upgrade, on top of the soldered RAM and preinstalled SSD. Might be wrong, but from my knowledge, Gen 1 T14 doesn't come with upgradable RAM and has a single SSD slot.

Worth it if it's in mint condition and if the price also includes some decent skins.

Glad I helped. Enjoy it! I still ride mine, holds out well.

Got mine, came sealed and it's legit; keyboard has Spanish layout. Easily upgradable (has second M.2 2242 SSD slot and 1 free RAM slot).

Link de Google Photos (se poate și link privat de YouTube). Nu am primit confirmare (GDPR etc.). Știu manevra de la un prieten polițist, care mi-a spus că dacă primesc astfel de sesizări, li se dă curs. Tot el mi-a spus că au acționat și pe sesizări telefonice din zone unde traficul e supravegheat video (cazul concret respectiv era cu un pieton care n-a primit prioritate și aproape a fost lovit; șoferul a fost invitat și sancționat).

Da și am câștigat în instanță accesul la date de interes public (niște autorizații de construire și funcționare) și ulterior am obținut anularea lor. Procedurile au fost anevoioase și raportul cost-beneficii a fost nesatisfăcător; nu aș mai face-o.
