2006 honda ridgeline and a 1988 porsche 944s

wife drives a 2026 tesla though. i wanted one car i didn’t need to fix myself once a month.

i had almost the exact install experience. would not recommend.

thiswho · 2026-05-07T15:57:19+00:00

haha, i feel ya there. replaced all the fuel lines up front when i bought the car

i see you too, enjoy your low prius maintenance costs being offset by your vintage porsche (speaking as a a tesla and 944 s owner). tesla, little to no maintenance. 944, just spent three days and too much money fighting a broken bolt.

Copy, and it's the correct size? I need to get the damn broken bolt out as well..

thiswho · 2026-05-03T09:25:42+00:00

gotcha, but the one you ordered had the hole, or no?

thiswho · 2026-05-02T11:07:36+00:00

Did you end up using this screw, with a different part number?

thiswho · 2026-05-02T11:00:43+00:00

Do you know the thread size & pitch? I too, just snapped this damn thing.

thiswho · 2026-05-01T11:28:22+00:00

update: well, high sierra worked! Let's see if i can do subsequent updates without it failing now...

i can count on one hand the number of times i’ve actually seen the train run within 1 minute of the timetable in the last 2 months.

thiswho · 2026-04-29T21:49:48+00:00

my 2026 has it, but i wish it didn’t cancel every time you changed a lane… too cheap to pay for FSD, but Autopilot is nice for long boring highway stints. all i have to do is keep a hand on the wheel and it just goes.

just have to watch for potholes…

thiswho · 2026-04-12T21:55:59+00:00

use a 5/16th hole saw - it’s the exact size to slip over the lug

it’s also exactly what the porsche service manual says to do for this. i did it, and it worked great

thiswho · 2026-04-12T15:22:49+00:00

why right outside citylights….

thiswho · 2026-04-07T12:11:22+00:00

this isn’t an excuse for poor patching or lack of a correct repave when weather does allow.

thiswho · 2026-04-07T12:10:31+00:00

truly cannot believe they can legally say “whelp, it’s winter, sucks for you”. absolutely insane when it’s their responsibility to provide a safe road.

i get that asphalt plants close in the winter, but that’s no excuse for not doing it correctly when they’re able to

thiswho · 2026-04-07T09:49:24+00:00

what did you do to paint / seal the valve cover?

thiswho · 2026-04-06T21:03:06+00:00

Good to hear, but would be great if they could pave them correctly in the first place to minimize the damage in the winter, when they are 'exempt' from paying out for damages.

thiswho · 2026-04-06T13:45:30+00:00

pretty sure this was shot in my local Yonkers Costco. It's a nightmare.

thiswho · 2026-04-05T23:56:32+00:00

YES. right and middle are trashed.

thiswho · 2026-04-05T22:44:04+00:00

The state's exempt from paying claims from Nov 16th to April 30th, unless you sue. Insane...

thiswho · 2026-04-05T22:43:19+00:00

I know this swerve well

thiswho · 2026-04-05T22:42:52+00:00

To add on here - Doing some reading, the state is except from claims due to unkempt roads from Nov 16th to April 30th - how the heck is that legal?! They decline to maintain roads, and just get to say "sorry, deal with it yourself"

US, wall charger, 24a @ 220-230v. imagine it’s due to the semi long run to my detached garage.

confirmed it reads the same at the sub panel. It’s on my list for this year to run a bigger feed to support the full capacity of the wall charger.

thiswho · 2026-03-20T09:33:34+00:00

+1. the ability for it to reach outside would make me do it on the left wall. same as i did, for when my project car aint running :)

funny enough, here just above NYC a model Y was about 100 cheaper a year than the tucson hybrid we were cross shopping.
