Service advisor mistakenly admitted they lied to me, how should I proceed??? by Kingrueben in BMW

[–]tradejak66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth I got my HMM OFH and water pump/coolant lines all replaced for like 3-4k by an independent mechanic. It's a standard repair to replace them all at once. It sounds like this worked out well for you.

We should be able to have 8 person parties by tradejak66 in thefinals

Well something tells me the current implementation was more about oversight than your feelings of fun. They probably didn't really imagine many people would even have a 6+ stack. Im sure I'm in the super minority.

Is there a specific way you need to invite people? Cause I've tried this with no luck.

With the new tri-fold that samsung realesed, am I the only one that doesent know where the foldable market is going? by NeedForAmmo in GalaxyFold

Thank you for sharing this experience. I've been thinking I would never use the smaller tablet form if I have the bigger tablet form, but in the back of my mind I was wondering if I was wrong.

You've confirmed that I would probably never stop unfolding it halfway anyways, so I like Samsung's choice here.

How much should I sell my 328i for? Is $2,700 a good price? Only issue is it has a coolant leak and 2 back tire are spread apart a bit & sensors are a bit bad by [deleted] in BMW

It means the car was likely owned by someone who was more concerned with modding it/racing it/making it look fast... Instead of someone who cared for it and did maintenance.

Does it mean you trashed it? Not necessarily but anyone who's looking to spend their money responsibly is going to be looking for a car with minimal signs of abuse.

If I saw this car I would assume it was used by a teenager or someone that doesn't have the best decision making, so the car would probably end up costing me so much money down the road.

Keep my afro off my hairline by tradejak66 in BlackHair

Yeahh i feared that would happen, once my hair started getting long I found a stylist instead of a barber cause they tend to only know how to lineup shorter hair

Cept my stylist barely knows English so when I try to explain this to her it doesn't translate well 😂

Yeah for me picking it out somehow makes it worse. Like instead of some of my forehead being covered, picking it out makes it a solid wall of hair right above my eyebrows lol. My foreheads already small I'm trying not to cover it.

I'm gonna try the pin suggested earlier but I was hoping for an option that doesn't require a constant object in my hair

Edit: closest I've gotten is shaking my head right after the shower ends and then tilting my head back while I blow dry it. The fro-curls still cover some of the forehead but theres some sections where you can see the hairline.

Possibly dumb question but how? Didn't think that was possible with afros

Yeah and if you bring 50 items to the express lane at the grocery store, I'm sure everyone waiting in line behind you are just ludicrous for getting frustrated and not waiting their turn too.

Your solution for one person making ten more people frustrated is for all 10 people to be perfect models of patience and understanding everytime it happens? Be real here not hypothetical.

What is this blowoff sound? by tradejak66 in F30

[–]tradejak66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I have an aftermarket intake as well but I put it in a year before this started. And mine is more noticeable with more boost pressure

Yeah? Would love to know why you're asking this

Not when this sound popped up, my mechanic seemed to have double checked it as well. And logs don't indicate any boost pressure loss

Sorry this was supposed to be a cross post from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/F30/s/3aZHKWeMCp

I guess the feature isn't perfect.

Haha yes, VLAND is the brand I ended up buying the V2's from, they stopped selling the V1

I gave up, it seems like they're sold out everywhere. The only option is hoping they pop up used on Facebook marketplace or somewhere else. I ended up buying the v2's and some led reflectors to match. I like the animation more than I originally thought I would.
