Fri 00:24:20 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Guy explains why BMW VANOS solenoids go bad a lot.
Fri 00:24:27 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ He says dirty oil usually.
Fri 00:24:42 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Well, BMW is the one that said you could do those super long extended drain intervals.
Fri 00:24:47 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 00:24:48 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Fucking retarded.
Fri 00:25:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You're basically skipping oil changes if you don't do it at least every 5,000 miles even with the best oil and filters they make.
Fri 00:25:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And so they're advising that and also knowing it will gunk up those VANOS systems.
Fri 00:25:45 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ maybe they don't know or care
Fri 00:25:55 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I'd lean on don't care.
Fri 00:26:11 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ only that their (almost as incompetent) european competitors say such high figures, so they feel like they have to
Fri 00:26:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ There's nothing so special about Euro oil specs that you can go 15,000 miles on an oil change.
Fri 00:26:57 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ of course, customers have to be pretty damn stupid to pick a car over slightly less frequent oil changes
Fri 00:27:05 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ but then that's what humans are, usually
Fri 00:27:12 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It's slightly better than the synthetic oils they sell here, but you'll still get contamination and fuel dilution.
Fri 00:27:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So you need to drain it more often than they say.
Fri 00:27:25 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ i mean, manufacturers were competing at this for no good reason
Fri 00:27:59 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Contamination, dilution, and shearing.
Fri 00:28:14 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ That's before you even talk about depletion of the additives package.
Fri 00:28:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then if you use bad oil filters, contamination will happen faster.
Fri 00:28:56 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ (metal shavings, soot, dirt)
Fri 00:29:06 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ looks like this trend isn't even specific to europe
Fri 00:29:13 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It's not.
Fri 00:29:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Some GM Oil Life Monitors suggested 6,000-10,000 miles.
Fri 00:29:49 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then it turned out there was so much oil consumption from their "active fuel management" that the engine would run dry and burn up.
Fri 00:30:05 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So they "fixed it" by reprogramming the OLM to come on every 3,000 miles.
Fri 00:30:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So there'd be enough oil in the system that the engine doesn't burn up.
Fri 00:30:21 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ lol
Fri 00:31:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Active Fuel Management basically disables cylinders at speed.
Fri 00:31:16 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So your V8 might turn into a V6 or a V4.
Fri 00:31:26 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ i wish i had a V8
Fri 00:31:42 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But then what happens is oil makes it past the pistons and you're leaking oil.
Fri 00:31:43 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ i have an I4
Fri 00:31:55 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So they sell Active Fuel Management bypass devices.
Fri 00:32:16 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You plud them in the OBD port and they tell the computer they're a diagnostic tool and to turn off AFM.
Fri 00:32:35 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, My grandmother had AFM on her Cadillac.
Fri 00:32:43 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ She added a quart of oil every week.
Fri 00:32:46 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ keeping random shit plugged into the OBD can also cause problems, afaik
Fri 00:32:56 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Because that's what the guy at GM said to do with it.
Fri 00:33:17 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Amazingly it ran fine for 17 years like that until she lost her mind and ran into someone's van.
Fri 00:33:25 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 00:33:43 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ it's like a 2-stroke engine at that point
Fri 00:33:50 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ you just feed it a mix of gas and oil
Fri 00:40:08 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, East German Trabants did that.
Fri 00:40:14 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They had no fuel gauge too.
Fri 00:40:42 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ yeah
Fri 00:40:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You just had to kind of guess when to put gas in them I guess.
Fri 00:40:58 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Like a lawnmower.
Fri 00:41:06 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ it had a dipstick
Fri 00:41:18 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ but you had to open the hood and the fuel tank to look at it
Fri 00:42:15 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ (yeah, i bet it felt super safe to refuel right next to the hot engine...)
Fri 00:43:39 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ naturally, on the side that's further from the edge of the alleged car and closer to the alleged engine >> https://www.reddit.com/r/Trabant/comments/vz5jph/i_just_bought_an_88_trabant_and_i_was_wondering/

Fri 00:47:48 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, It was so bad it got better when they changed to a VW engine
Fri 00:48:01 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 00:48:32 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ These are the people who almost conquered three continents.
Fri 00:49:08 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ lol
Fri 00:49:21 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, I had to do more stuff to my car this week.
Fri 00:49:23 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ wait till you see what the people who are about to conquer all of them are like.
Fri 00:49:35 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But at least things are straightforward to reach with simple hand tools usually.
Fri 00:49:42 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ (bug people and their orcish clients)
Fri 00:50:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The Russians happened to be sitting on a lot of Soviet era military hardware they inherited and mostly had mothballed.
Fri 00:50:53 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Their ability to produce modern munitions is almost comical.
Fri 00:51:00 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ they also have tens of millions of slaves whose lives are absolutely worthless to them
Fri 00:51:04 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ possibly of negative value
Fri 00:51:17 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So does the US.
Fri 00:51:19 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 00:51:39 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But our military hardware is about 30 years ahead of the Russians.
Fri 00:51:43 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ so, has nazi america given up on the idea of a highly trained professional military force?
Fri 00:52:08 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, No, they're still highly trained.
Fri 00:52:15 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ that makes them expensive
Fri 00:52:18 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ unlike the orcs
Fri 00:52:32 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Our ground troops are meant to go in and survive.
Fri 00:52:38 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Sometimes they don't.
Fri 00:52:46 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ orcs aren't meant to survie
Fri 00:52:48 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But we don't throw them in there expecting to lose all and just send more.

Fri 00:52:54 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ though i suspect most of them don't know this
Fri 00:53:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ When a US soldier is wounded they sometimes get millions of dollars of healthcare.
Fri 00:53:40 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Including the most advanced prosthetics if they lose limbs.
Fri 00:53:41 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ maybe they accept the deal of "go to the front, die and (maybe) we'll give your surviving relatives a bunch of (worthless) money"
Fri 00:54:26 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, "It sounded like a lot of money last week when it was worth 4 times as much."
Fri 00:54:29 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ ;:)
Fri 00:54:34 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 00:55:11 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ and then there are the north korean grunts who are apparently even less valuable
Fri 00:55:17 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ iirc they were often used as drone bait
Fri 00:55:36 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The Russian soldiers complained that the North Koreans were getting better medical care and weapons.
Fri 01:00:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Apparently some guy drove a truck into a synagogue in Michigan and even though nobody but him got hurt, like all the police in America are there because it's Jews.
Fri 01:01:26 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 01:05:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, My Ignition Control Module was failing in a rather specific way.
Fri 01:05:37 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It was running cylinders 1 and 4 wrong, but only for about 30-40 seconds when the car started.
Fri 01:06:02 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ It would clear up when it got warm and wouldn't do it again unless the car sat out all night.
Fri 01:06:38 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I replaced it fast.
Fri 01:07:02 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ There's no telling that it was running the cylinders correctly even when warm, just not poorly enough to trigger a misfire count.
Fri 01:07:12 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ And if it's beginning to fail, it will get worse.
Fri 01:08:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I swapped out the contaminated plugs. I only bought a pack of 2 even though it's a 6 cylinder engine because I just changed all of them last year.
Fri 01:08:52 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Poured a bottle of Chevron Techron in the gas tank and running down that tank right now.
Fri 01:10:17 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Techron was originally developed to deal with carbon fouling of BMW intake valves.
Fri 01:10:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They still sell it in the parts dept there.
Fri 01:16:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, They mark it up about 4 times over what you can buy it for at Walmart.
Fri 01:16:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then they call it BMW fuel system cleaner.
Fri 01:17:01 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ :>
Fri 01:17:44 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ If you consistently buy fuel from stations in the Top Tier detergent gasoline brand, they all have at least 3x the EPA minimum detergents.
Fri 01:17:51 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ So carbon fouling should never be a problem.
Fri 01:18:06 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ if you have port injection
Fri 01:18:21 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ or no injection
Fri 01:18:21 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They have a Top Tier + standard now for GDI.
Fri 01:18:33 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ that isn't going to get the fuel to the intake valves, though
Fri 01:18:48 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ But that's very new and I have not seen any stations compliant with + yet.
Fri 01:19:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I'd pull over and use a Top Tier + station if I knew of any.
Fri 01:19:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Adding detergents is very cheap when they're buying them in bulk to blend directly into the gas.
Fri 01:20:08 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ I'ts like maybe a gallon of detergent to an entire tanker truck of gasoline.

Fri 18:51:35 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They said it contributed to engine fires from oil leaking out of the valve cover gaskets.

Fri 18:52:16 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, Does BMW have valve gasket leak problems too?
Fri 18:52:56 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ one of their famous cause of fires was that the alleged engine would spring a hole and blow flame through it, setting fire to plastic components outside the alleged engine
Fri 18:53:02 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ and then the whole alleged car would burn down

Fri 23:00:47 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ schestowitz[TR2], The US used to be reasonably free.
Fri 23:01:01 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Until the early 2000s, most citizens didn't interact with the federal government very much.

Fri 23:01:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then federal overreach into everything from transportation into basic ID cards happened.
Fri 23:02:35 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The federal system was working mostly as intended. The feds were in charge of foreign policy, war, currency, interstate commerce regulation, and crimes like terrorism, kidnapping, bank robbery, stuff like that.
Fri 23:02:51 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ You had to be a really bad person to get any attention from federal law enforcement.
Fri 23:03:08 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Now it's cheap to just surveil everyone every time they pass by a camera, so it puts cameras everywhere.

Fri 23:03:58 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They didn't have this much surveillance on the mafia in the 1980s, as they do now on a single mom driving a clunker to work at Dollar General.

Fri 23:07:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Then it was 66, 67, 68.

Fri 23:10:21 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Meanwhile, they spent trillions on "Homeland Security". Which made the airports so safe that last year a Doordash driver accidentally drove onto the runway at O'Hare and parked next to a jumbo jet that was boarding passengers.

Sat 01:15:15 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, I told this to a Trump supporter on Facebook:
Sat 01:15:17 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "Trump's cankles have engorged themselves to the point even the strongest compression socks can barely contain them. The dam's about to burst. Dude gets bruises by just being alive, and the embalmed corpse of Vladimir Lenin looks better than he does even though it's been dead since the 1920s."
Sat 01:17:50 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "Regarding the bruising, his doctors say Trump has Chronic Venous Insufficiency, which has nothing to do with Chronic Penis Insufficiency, which is what Stormy Daniels said he suffers from as well."

Sat 01:22:05 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, I wrote to one of them: "America has freedom of religion unless you're a Muslim, then it has "fire safety codes", "zoning laws", and the FBI."

Sat 01:27:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ George Carlin said that "Rights aren't rights if someone can take them away." and all the government does is say you have rights, then takes them away.
Sat 01:27:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The rights that its own founding documents said everyone has are constantly under attack, by the same government. They whittle them down to where they mean nothing, protect nobody.

Sat 03:54:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, The T-800 probably could have pulled off the attack on the ICE detention camp from Dark Fate.

Sat 04:57:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "A long-term care insurance policy can help offset costs, but these policies aren’t for everyone, especially nowadays.
Sat 04:57:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ In the 1990s and 2000s, when generous coverage and underpriced premiums were the norm, “carriers underestimated two things: how long people would live, and dementia,” says Rosenblatt. Now, most policies allow insurers to make unlimited premium hikes, and many policyholders end up priced out just when they need coverage most.
Sat 04:57:31 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Hybrid policies, which combine life and long-term care insurance, are gaining traction, but they’re costly, and coverage is often limited. If you don’t want to purchase an insurance plan, consider “self-insuring” by setting aside funds each year specifically for long-term care costs. Bonus: If you wind up not needing long-term care, you can spend the money on other things."

Sat 04:57:46 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ MinceR, I self insure by figuring the state has to do something since I'm broke.
