I've been thinking about getting a small, yet high-resolution dashcam for a couple of years now. Finally, I did some research and bought the one in the title. I'll explain my thoughts about my simplistic setup, then attach a youtube video I made that includes unboxing and street-driving videos...
Yes, I asked CoPilot, but some of its response may be helpful:
You didnāt break it ā this is a very common A90/A91 Supra door-handle mistake, especially when people remove handles for wraps or PPF. Take a breath š. The screw didnāt āfall into the door,ā but it retracted on its carrier, which is...
I've read that if the car has had an alignment, suspension work, steering wheel removal, or accident repair and the electronic power steering or yaw calibration wasn't completed correctly, this warning could pop up.
I have a Dinan system, and love it but didn't see your post until now. When the valve is closed, there is no resonating, but when open, it is essentially mufferless, so there is some resonating going on. Still, I've had many compliments.
Great video. I rarely get to hear my own Dinan exhaust, this way. The only thing I would change or add to is the height of the recording device. Since most bystanders are standing, I'd set the recording height to 5.5 feet or so.
Side note: If I owned a car wash, I'd have a sign made that depicts the front side view of a vehicle with a minimum height warning. It would be prominently posted at the front of the wash and where payment is accepted. This would help prevent liability issues.
It seems as if many are young and inexperienced drivers. I recall being on a "Mountain Run" with quite a few sportscars, outside the city. One owner decided it was okay to let his 17 year-old son drive. He subsequently drifted into the oncoming lane and sideswiped a car. The teenager then...
Sadly, many accidents in and near big cities are due to a lack of driver attention. We recently were slammed in the rear by a 19 year-old girl who wasn't paying attention. She pushed us into the vehicle in front of us. The result: $28,000 in damage, just to our car. Years earlier, another young...
That may be the reason.
Also:
Inspect the turbo to downpipe connection for soot marks.
Replace the old gasket and torque bolts to spec.
Check the O2 sensor wiring (no pinching) and connectors.
That was my initial thought. I probably would ceramic coat it if that was all I had to do, but in addition to all the body parts, every window was splattered. I'm not that far away from being 70, so an all-day task might not be easy. :confused:
Update: The "glitter" is not the intermediary layer's defect, nor is it fine sand pits.
It is some kind of overspray that covers the entire car. I can't remember parking near any painting/coating operations, nor can I pinpoint the first time I noticed it.
So within a couple of weeks, I will...
I've driven many sportscars over the last 6 years, most being much more expensive than my Supra. Yet this one seems to get even more attention than the McLaren 570S I rented. The Supra gets FAR more attention than the 911 4S and the 2022 C8. Maybe this is because the average annual build for GR...
