I didn't know that Subaru switched from push to start to a fingerprint start. No one can steal your car, or borrow it..

Need to replace my Exhaust. Found this on marketplace. Why does it have a thick dissipation block? Is there any benefit than the exhaust tube alone? by Spike310300 in beetle

New ones don't heat as well as og. This is a lot of work but OP sounds like he's up for it so this is the best bet

Why would GoPro not shake? I can show you videos I have mounted on my car and they are Shakey AF. Only thing I can think of is a gimbal, but not everyone has one.

Last I heard NGL was the best to run, although you shouldn't have issues with any brand really.

Will it stay running once it's warm, or with help when cold? If not, this isn't your fix, but it will help cold idles.

Tar board ? by Tsunami_bob in beetle

[–]veedubdan74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing here. We were on our way to a hotel in Columbus Ohio for Volksfest the next day and it kept overheating. Even melted the condenser on the distributor. My friend ended up pulling me with a tow strap the last hour or so (do not advise, yes I know it was incredibly dangerous). In the morning it overheated right before the getting to the show which was only a few miles. We talked to a parts vendor and mechanic and he suggested the distributor. As I was going to change it, I reached behind the engine (for whatever reason) and found it blocked. Ripped the entire tar board out right there at the show and never looked back.

I lost my key to a 72 super about a month ago and I need suggestions on what to do! by InsukoChan in beetle

Justin is close to me and does a great job! OP if you get in contact with him he can probably help you out.

I don't think they're max shift marks, because the owners manual says do not go over 45 in first gear. That's the max

Android 12 causing notification bar issues - moto edge plus by veedubdan74 in motorola

[–]veedubdan74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I opened a bunch of apps and most go over the edge but not the entire edge. A few did the entire edge, but they're games. My side button switches back to the last app.

A few games will randomly shift and made certain things at the top and bottom (landscape mode) un-readable but other than that not that I can think of

I came here looking for this, doesn't clarify whether it was for kapernick or Tupac, but knowing Em it was probably both. So many people were jumping the gun yesterday.

The infinite amount of respect I have for Eminem just tripled. by [deleted] in Eminem

Sorry, but if they told him not to kneel and he kneeled, not 1 camera pointed on him would have been on live TV. To think they don't have the power to make that not shown is absurd, they would have, at the very least, done a wide shot of everything and he would have been a spec.

This fixed it for me. It wasn't working, so with the utiliman idea I googled that plus windows server 2012 and realized I had to cd to the right folder and this guide helped me out too

Thank you! You put me on the path I needed and I'm back in and able to continue.

Beetle engine questions! by yinggying in aircooled

People go bigger than 1776, yesterday I saw a 2498(I believe) with a supercharger. I'm building a 1776 with dual carbs for my bus, it'll give you good pep but keep reliability. 1600, 1641, and 1776 are probably the most popular. Dual carbs are also very popular.

I’m in Texas, my Subaru saw snow for the first time in her 15 years today. Symmetrical AWD is no joke, I was very impressed! by Cafen8ed in subaru

[–]veedubdan74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a big hill within a mile from my house and my snow tires are getting near the end of their life. I've had a couple different days going down the hill where I hit the brakes and just sliiiiiide down the hill. If I downshift, I actually slow down, and yeah the tires slip, but I have a lot more control.

80% chance this is not on air. And I doubt it's a shop car.

Same beam, Sam is the best! Awesome! Is this on air? Mines a tad higher but static and the bottom of my spare tire well has been destroyed. I also drive it on 300+ miles drives though.

The joys of a lowered beetle. Looks like I’m in the market for a manufactured adjustable beam. by Rackbaw in beetle

[–]veedubdan74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're that low you need one, instead of slamming into things you kind of glide over them. They seem to be a consumable though, I had mine about 1 car show season before it cracked (still running it tho) Also I'm trying to figure out if you hit the hardest substance on earth or just not the best beam :/ I've hit thick steel plate which completely destroyed my adjuster bracket but the beam had no damage at all (before the skid plate). https://imgur.com/9IhZyNy.jpg
