    Got Another TDI

    I think its because its a 2010, its a little goofy due to the changeover to MKVI that year. I was reading about it on myturbodiesel and its confusing as all hell.

    Got Another TDI

    I'll have to dig into it more, there is no phone or bluetooth menu in the MFD or the radio. I do not have NAV either. The VW's are the entry level German car, still far more advanced than anything American, but many other German cars are much nicer if you can afford them. FWIW our new...

    Custom Cat twin Filter setup

    Well it looks like a 1R-???? number on that seperator but all of our Cat SSL's run a 361-9555 which have the same filter base as the one you show. Ours are all 2012's and 2013's. The older 2011 we had used a different number filter. Same style setup just the slots for the keyways were different.

    Got Another TDI

    Told my dad to buy an A6 TDI to replace his 06 A6, he said no. Oh well. The 56k price tag was not worth it to him, he opnly paid 17k for his A6 a couple years ago. End of the year, he just lowballed them, walked out, they called back, he had a cheap A6. As for the TDI, liking it so far...

    Alcoa Restoration

    I guess I can't comment on the longevity of it, when they haul milk often times they will just use the caustic soap up there to wash the tanker and such, that stuff is pretty strong and strips most sealants. Theres no magic except old fashioned patience. Every Tom Dick and Harry has their...

    Alcoa Restoration

    Exactly, I like to be comfortable. Im a believer that if you dont like wearing it then you wont wear it as often. I like wearing it because I just don't have to worry about anything. My sinuses are very sensitive to dust and while safety glasses help, when using the buffing wheels and such...

    Alcoa Restoration

    Alcoa Restoration

    It was a little pricey. $140 IIRC.

    Alcoa Restoration

    Thanks. The bad thing about flat surfaces is that they will show every little mistake you make. They are a lot easier to work with though. Even if you dont think you need a full face, if you need a respirator and safety glasses, buy this thing. No more foggy glasses or anything, nothing coming...

    Boycott Sony.

    I've kind of forgotten about Sony, used to feel they were great but lately have gone other directions. I don't get into the gaming and home theater stuff really, not much time to use it, but prefer a lot of Samsung stuff lately it seems. I have owned probably 4 or 5 of Sony's $40 DVD players...

    Question: Watch whole video...

    Um duh, we know the same Ben right? Hes not the "hold my beer watch this" type of guy, hes more of a "hold my graphing calculator and pocket proctector and watch this" type of guy :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao: boobtube is not working right now, but I remember Bens turbine video.

    Alcoa Restoration

    Nah wheels are nuthin. Now even other polishers and others who are anal about looks tell me I am nuts when I talk about our belt trailer. Getting caught up on some more productive things right now but can't wait to start on it. Hoping I can have the entire thing polished by our local parade in...

    Alcoa Restoration

    Polishing Aluminum has always been rewarding for me. Its the one thing you really see a big turn around on and I just like working with it. Over time I have acquired the tools and products to make the process faster. I recently got into more sanding to get rid of heavy defects. Below is a...

    Got Another TDI

    Got 1k miles on it now. 46mpg by hand. Only complaint so far is the radio. When trying to scroll through the music on my iPod it is insanely slow. It also doesnt update the screen with the track/title most of the time when I let it change songs on its own. Otherwise everything is fairly nice...
