Thanks for info, still not sold though. My boot time is already sub 15 seconds (SSD), this machine has been built and running for about 14 months and has no noticable slow down in use. It's VERY stable, current run time is about 3 weeks without shutdown or reboot. My PC is by no means a fast or...
I assume you bled the brakes? If so, how? One mad brake bleed kit, or two person pedal pump method?
Strip it back down and check the following:-
1) is the caliper piston free moving. Can you push it back in easily - if not, then it could be a faulty/sticky caliper
2) do the pads move freely...
I'm still on Windows 7 - Should I upgrade?
I'm not a gamer, my PC is mainly used as a Plex server, the odd bit of browsing and printing and that's about it.
Worth the hassle of upgrading or stick with Win7?
I've said it lot of times, but I run Pilot Sport 3's.
They get hell on a daily basis with 350+lb-ft being forced through them and they cope fine. They have worn quickly but that is to be expected on a fairly heavy, fairly high powered FWD saloon. They are great in the dry, only coming unstuck...
On the last 2 houses i've bought - Internet speeds were high on the list of priorities! it went like this:-
Detached
Garage
Driveway
Virgin Media
If it didn't have the above - I didn't view it!
Because there is no need. It's a sealed unit and doesn't/shouldn't use oil like an engine does.
The only time you need to check the level is when filling it up, which is done easily (fill it until it's full!)
Average mileage is what? 10 - 12k a year? So work it out using that.
a 10 year old car on 100k is average mileage, a 5 year old car on 100k is high mileage. 10 year old car on 50k is low mileage a 5 year old car on 50k is average mileage etc.
Take my Volvo, it's just coming up to 70k...
Well worth the 2.5hr journey down to Mick I reckon. Never had any work done there myself but know plenty that have. Have only ever heard good things about his work.
It might, however if it is indeed because it needs regassing you need to investigate the cause for the rapid loss in the first place. It won't leak out in 3 days unless something happens.
It could of course be something else, but the usual cause of a non-working A/C is lack of refridgerant.
No wireless internet options in your area?
Near where I live we have this company (W3Z) who can provide internet wirelessly to your home. Various packages (none cheap!) You're looking at £40 a month for an unlimited 10mbps connection.
I assumed the op already had a PC, hence my noise comments. Obviously he could build something silent but I was going with the idea that he was going to use his current setup.
