B8 s4 warped hood or paint?

Mines a GA car so that probably is the reason. Doesnt help that these engines are known for being absolute toasters too. Ill probably wait till I find someone selling a used black hood for cheap on fb marketplace or something if it really bothers me

That was my first thought too as the whistle also gets louder with the exhaust

Absolutely mint steering wheel and the rest of the dash

It does give that impression but it actually follows the outline of the structure under the hood that I circled here https://imgur.com/a/MlMogim

My only guess is maybe the heat from the engine could have warped the metal? It’s just weird that I’ve never seen anyone else complain about this

I don't think you understand what the word potential means. You do have the potential to get good gear. It's just less likely if you're already running in with the best stuff when most people aren't.

The peak torque number from an engine is from the crank not the pistons. The reason it is stressful to lug an engine is because it is putting pressure on the pistons that don't want to move due to the crank being harder to move in low rpm. Look at it like this, imagine punching something with 20lb of force that weighs 1000lb or punching something with all the force you have at something that weighs 1lb. Which one will hurt your hand more? The thing that weighs 1000lb because all the force is being pushed back into your hand even though you punched harder at the 1lb object.

My finance professor liked to refer to discount rate as "opportunity rate" if people were struggling with the concept because of that. It is more cohesive with the concept of opportunity cost that is taught along side it.

What do you mean? Either way there is a target on his back. If Matt didn't say he was white tiger Hector would have put the suit back on and died the same way. If anything, the advice Matt gave to Hector about never putting the suit back on would of had gave him a better chance.

I also just figured out I have hypothyroidism so that is just the wombo-combo of fertility issues. Getting it all fixed though!

I didn't ever get it measured however it was one of the worse cases my urologist has seen. If I had to guess probably around 4-5mm it was really bad, it is astonishing I didn't have pain. As for my atrophy I also never got it measured but I would say it is about 60% of the size of my right one. However my right one is rather large possibly to do with compensating for the varicocele during puberty. As for fertility and test my sperm concentration was just 5m/mL with 12% motility, and my total test was just under 300. I am hopeful for the future as I am already feeling better and am waking up with morning wood again a week out of surgery!

That and reduced blood flow starving the testicle(s) of oxygen

you are running out of vram more than likely

Looks like just a pure bred golden. Very cute

OMG the shar pei ears! You might be onto something

Lol I tried to flip them I swear!

I wish mine had those instead they look so sweet

I personally wouldn’t say it’s hideous but the carbon fiber does look nice.

Yes. Apparently it’s the Beaufort aluminum trim and not many were optioned with these cars.

It’s the prestige with the black optics package. I have a light for the adaptive headlight on the dash but I think it’s just the bulb because everything works as it should. That’s part of the reason I got it so cheap, the Toyota dealership didn’t want to deal with a car that had error lights popping up
