My case with it’s measly two front fans and one rear fan XD It keeps the 5800 CPU below 70 C and the 3080 GPU in the 60s, but it probably isn’t anywhere near quiet as yall’s rigs. The cooler master 212 does a really good job in junction with the case but wouldn’t want to game without a headset...

Agreed. I’ve been a fan of Mobil 1 and stocking up each year during their rebate offers. I continue to use Mobil 1 0w-16 in my hybrid RAV4 and I’m now using Castrol Edge 5w-30 in the 23 CX-5 turbo. Castrol supposedly has a really good formulation for preventing deposits, something I’m interested...

I’ll likely get at least 8 or 10 years out of my current desktop for gaming purposes. Started with the following AM platform in 2020: AMD 3600 RTX 2070 32GB RAM 2TB NVMe storage 4TB 7200 rpm backup X570 mobo I quickly upgraded the graphics card on a whim when a 3080 became available on Newegg...

Help us out here with the details. In my area, 2019 GTs are selling for 22k max (about 50k miles on them). Figure they got 18 or 19k trade in value for that. Similarly equipped Premium Plus models, new ‘24s are priced at 38k MSRP. Thats a significant difference, I’m doing some mental gymnastics...

Partial success, I’m calling it quits as the main issue is resolved. Auto light sensing works! Turns out a bracket was present in the sensor. I’m guessing it was aftermarket along with the windshield and likely arrived adhered to the glass with three small hard epoxy pads. They were a pain to...

Mostly wounded pride, lol! My ride on lawn mower was in front of the car, so I did get a small wheel shaped gouge in the front bumper. Thank god nothing worse than that.

https://youtu.be/WUXrGrrVeIU?feature=shared Hah, here’s a video of the rear wheel risk I think N7 was referring to. Found a couple videos of what I did with FWD, but I’ve never had a RWD vehicle to attempt this.

I used them only a couple more times after my boneheaded incident. When I did, I placed the bottom of the ramps against the concrete lip between my garage floor and the driveway. There was no way for the ramps to slide backwards with the wheels spinning if that makes sense. The 1/2” bump from...

Mine had the rubber feet too. Again, chalk it up to bad technique. I’ll never get that squeal/shriek sound out of my memory: plastic and rubber feet shooting across concrete like Clark Griswold going downhill on snow on that greased up saucer.

Yeah, it was the ‘13. I won’t be swapping the brake fluid until ~2026 😂

Over 10 years ago, I was a complete dummy and drove my CX-5 over a set of Rhino Ramps. I pressed the gas and the car crept halfway up the ramps. Movement stalled so I applied more pressure to the gas pedal. The ramps shot out from under the front wheels and I was immediately humbled. 1) I...

I had really good things to say after using those pads in conjunction with Advance Auto Parts store brand rotors and SL6 brake fluid. Less dust than OEM with good bite.

Thats what I would do as the manufacturer. Fill a consistently repeatable minimum amount to ensure function. Why fill more at the factory then what is needed? .25 quarts x 100000 vehicles a year: 25000 quarts of transmission fluid saved per year. 100000 vehicles that meet spec without wasting...

Making progress! The screen has been replaced to address ghost touch. Now I can adjust settings more confidently without a phantom screwing them up lol. As I suspected, car on Auto lights dims the display (my mother in law only noticed it when in reverse). Video attached to demonstrate that...
