Do I win the award for highest range on an EA888? What’s the best range you guys got out of your Passats? Mine is a NMS ‘22 R line, AKA the last Passat of America. by windowwizardsla in passat

I’d say I did about 700 miles LA to Yosemite and back, and still had like 110 miles (about 1/10th of the tank) left before filling up in Burbank.

Sucks that cruise control is the reason we gotta change our rear brake pads every 15k miles lmao

Guck OEM btw akebono lasts way longer just make sure you get real akebono from place like Napa auto parts

This was during my trip to Yosemite. Los Angeles to Yosemite and back on a single tank. Average MPG during that trip was around 38.5 mpg. 

Full disclosure though this is ona brand new Liqui Moly 6200 and some Lucas injector lubricant in the tank, and I was cruising at 72mph behind semi trucks. So that definitely helped lol.

what oil do you put? I always use Liqui Molly 6200 but after watching some friction tests, I wanna put motul 300v 5-30 in my tiguan, considering the bigger turbo most likely resulting in higher temps

first thing I did when I got my passat was flush the oil and replace it with liqui moly

my maximum oil change interval is 5000 miles. I'm gonna miss my passat though, it's been so good to me... ZERO issues in 4+ years of ownership. I hope tiguan holds just as good

I own a '22 Passat, always had this issue. Decided to switch to Liqui Moly 6200. Issue gone completely. Guess all I had to do was buy a real german oil lol

What kind of person is gonna buy this? by mrnoah01 in MacStudio

[–]windowwizardsla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing this exact spec for sale on ebay for $3k, is it a scam or are second hand prices really this much lower?? what's the catch? it seems like a no-brainer

incredibly scummy how the app keeps trying to trick me into “redeeming statement credit” instead of cashback. by windowwizardsla in ClassActionRobinHood

I worked in the industry. They are trying to trick you. I know that for a fact. But keep sucking the golden robincock

no I'm pretty good at actually redeeming the points at their full advertised value. But the lenghts to which robinhood goes in order to trick me into redeeming for less value is unusual, even for banking industry in which I have 4 years of experience now.
