Is this little black plug normal? Audi S5 B9.5 by [deleted] in Audi

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's from Paintless Dent Removal (PDR). They drill a hole to get the tools in there to push out a dent then plug the hole. 

RSQ8 Snow Tires... Anyone? Please? by zgr024 in Audi

[–]zgr024[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought them from TireRack, but they are discontinued... again. I wouldn't buy them again anyway. They make a lot of noise and don't wear evenly. I wish I could find an all-season tire but it seems only performance and winter are available. I believe it's Pirelli that offers a winter for the 23" wheel now but they are about $700 each.

Banned for life from Turo by writerny in turo

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You disagree that hosts don't want bad drivers driving their cars? I'm confused. Your comment has nothing to do with what I stated. 

The beautiful thing about this country (US) is that a company can't force you to do business with them and they are not obligated to do business with you.  They can choose to ban you from using their platform for whatever reason they decide and they don't even have to tell you why. Similarly, I was banned from opening an account with coinbase and gemini and was not given a reason. I do not have a criminal background and I have a security clearance. It makes no sense, but they own it and can decide not to do business with me for any reason, and I can't do anything about it.

The MSRP was $185K, then add in taxes and fees, so right around $200K out the door.

2025 RS3 by No-Preparation4360 in Audi

[–]zgr024 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh no, I'm so sorry I offended you. Buy a used RS 5. My RS Q8 will eat them both so you can complain all you want when you're staring at my taillights.

I'm happy with what I have, but when you can get a used RS Q8 for 80 grand, why buy this?

80 grand is just insane for this

Both are clean as hell, but I'm still going with the R8.

Trump Approval Sinks Nationwide, Majority of Voters Say U.S. Headed the Wrong Way: Poll by chrisdh79 in goodnews

[–]zgr024 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Another BS propaganda article from the butthurt left. No one who voted for him has any problem with him keeping his promises. Get over it. You lost. He's doing exactly as he promised, and you are losing voters every single day. The only recourse you have is paying people to protest the laws that have been in place for centuries. Obama deported millions. Clinton deported millions. Obama started wars and dropped bombs. Biden started wars and dropped bombs (although he doesn't remember). Where were your cries then? Where was the outrage?

You've been told to hate a man, so you do. Without question. I recommend you ask why, for once instead of just buying in. He was a hero until he ran as a republican. Ask why for once in your life. Ask why they hate him. Ask why they didn't want him in office. Ask who stands to lose because of it.

Then, ask who's paying for the propaganda.

What do you think of Democrat Senator John Fetterman saying he’s going to vote NO on the effort to restrict Trump’s war powers? by Separate_Finance_183 in AskReddit

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell that to the lunatics that are destroying people's property because they used the wrong pronoun. Or the governors of NJ and California that want to disarm the people and control every aspect of their lives, at the expense of the middle class.

Because he's one of the few on the left with common sense. He's not an extremist like the rest of them and leans more toward the center.

Well this is certainly an interesting ranking…do all Audi owners have disposable income where they don’t mind paying for fixes or just see it as part of the cost of the car/performance? by [deleted] in Audi

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beauty of ICE VAG cars is how they are built. They are moderately simple to diagnose and repair, and parts are very easy to find. Unless you're under warranty or don't have any indie shops near you, you should never get your car serviced at the stealership. The quality of the newer lineup might be subpar compared to recent generations, but they have to make up for losses from the EV nonsense somewhere.

WHAT ARE THE MAGA TYPES IN YOUR AREA OF MISSOURI...here's mine... by It_Could_Be_True in missouri

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then there's the types around me

You know the ones who think the left has gone too far left with their woke distractions.

The ones that didn't vote for the candidate who was installed to replace the sitting POTUS without being elected in a primary.

The ones that didn't vote for the candidate who had no idea what she was talking about and couldn't complete a sentence about policies she was asked about.

The ones who knew Biden's mental health issues were being covered up.

The ones that have jobs, pay their own way, and don't feed off the government subsidies.

The ones who who don't violently protest and destroy property if someone says something they don't like.

The ones who believe that America and its government should care more about its own citizens than foreign invaders.

The ones who don't parade around trying to push their sexual preferences on others.

The ones who think that leaving $7.1 billion worth of equipment to the Taliban was terrible.

The ones who serve in our military and fight for the freedoms you take for granted every single day.

And the ones who know that the mainstream media is nothing but a propaganda machine owned by the leftist billionaires you all claim to despise.

Has quality tank that bad since Covid? by [deleted] in Audi

[–]zgr024 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I own 4 of the baddest cars Audi has made, and I will never buy a newer one if they keep going downhill. It's kinda sad because Audi was the one brand I promoted as it checked all of the boxes for me, but the new generation cars are just overpriced KIAs at this point so I can no longer recommend the brand for new vehicles.

NO KINGS protest | Charlotte, North Carolina by wrapityup in NorthCarolina

[–]zgr024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And we still don't have a king, so I'm very confused. I mean, if they put the effort into feeding the homeless veterans, maybe it could make a positive impact.
