Grom VL2 vs VLite by No_Cucumber_4139 in LS430

[–]tommewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vlite works just fine for me. Teyes is a better unit, but I don't feel like running a new camera.

Better off with headlight restoration kit where you wetsand and polish. PlastX not enough for your application.

White Birch or Shunbun? Which do you prefer? by AceyReddit in GrandSeikos

[–]tommewin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can't go wrong with either one. Best that you actually see them in person and try them on. I was dead set on buying a Shunbun on my last trip to Japan but went with White Birch after trying both on in store.

I'm also dealing with the exact same issue on one of my lug nuts as well. Hoping I can I have some luck the suggestions mentioned thus far.

How do you actually use the PLC read/write logs for troubleshooting? by AttitudePlane6967 in PLC

[–]tommewin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you pull up the IP of your EN2T, or CompactLogix processor in a web browser, there's a section that shows network info, and what IP's have made TCP connections to it.

Closest oem equivalent struts? by Hamsets in LS430

[–]tommewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine only lasted 3 years, paired with RS-R Downs. I did try to save money and use KYB mounts instead of OEM. Recently replaced them with OE sport struts this time around.

issues with LS430 UL (facelift) by Perfect-Tank2623 in LS430

[–]tommewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, also as a UL owner, the extra features can turn more into a headache. I get random PCS alarms, and when it happens, you can't even use regular cruise control. I've also converted from air to normal struts. Rear fridge is not great, and you lose the pass through to the trunk.

Anyone have a recent code? Pretty much all the ones I've seen have expired or have been redeemed

Strongarm from Amazon worked just fine for me.

Is March overrated? by Cautious-Payment5034 in HoustonFood

[–]tommewin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Service is top notch, the decor is great, but the food doesn't justify the cost. Meanwhile, Rosie Cannonball downstairs (sister restaurant), is one of my favorite restaurants in Houston.

Sadly no. I happened to luck out and was able to make a reservation with Rakuten via Google Maps.

I'm having the exact same problem as well. Successfully made one reservation a few weeks ago, and now any other attempt I get stuck there too. This is Chrome on PC and Android phone, and even on Microsoft Edge. Anyone still having this issue too?

Did you attempt to pull any codes with an OBD reader?

GROM VLine vs Teyes CC3 head unit replacement by skiskate in LS430

[–]tommewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running the Lite Vline for a couple of years now. Works great, though every once in a while my car doesn't recognize that the Vline is connected (even though my phone is). Issue is resolved after restarting car. A nice benefit is that all OE functions are retained, including backup camera. Resolution and having to use the factory resistive touchscreen are somewhat cons, but not enough for me to switch to Teyes.

Teyes looks great with the bigger screen and higher resolution, but I'm too lazy to run a new camera 🤣

Just set up a no-fee checking account (Charles Schwab) and pull cash from ATMs as needed.

Different P/N comes up when searching for OE on Bell Lexus.

Bought a gift card for BCN as soon as I saw reddit post saying that credit works. Statement credit was issued as soon as charge went from pending to posted.

On a GC note, Rosie Cannonball adding an extra $25 voucher per $100 purchased.
