2024.05.14 00:17 NocturnePixie What is this noise my car is making?
2017 Chevy Cruze Primarily while braking, but also at other times occasionally while driving. It's a high pitched grinding noise. I do have video of it, but the sub doesn't allow uploading. Thank you!

2024.05.13 23:22 Z-Sprinkle Tips for rev matching?
I understand the basic idea that you want to blip the throttle on down shifts to make the gears change more smooth and reduce strain on the engine but I’ve been struggling in practice.
Like if I’m approaching a red light and I try downshifting and adding throttle, it’s impeding my slowing down because I’m trying to use the brake, and when I add any throttle on a down shift it’s carrying me forward still as I let out the clutch to engage my lower gear.
Is the issue that I’m clutching out on the down shifts? If I don’t engage the clutch on my new gear then I’m not getting any engine braking, so I feel a bit confused about how to master this practice. I’m riding a 2005 Suzuki SV650. Any tips or videos people have on this topic would be greatly appreciated! :)

2024.05.13 22:24 FemaleMechanic18 AITA for expecting people to give me info I need to work on there cars
Okay title sounds wierd so here's a quick explanation.
I 22f am a level 2 mechanic apprentice and I give my family and friends "deals" for car repairs. I don't charge them anything if they supply me the parts (I send them the links to the parts they need) and all the info of tools are required for the job (I.e socket sizes, pliers, wrenchs, hammer) I require this because I have to bring my tools from work and if they fail to give me this info, I can't work on their vehicle and have wasted time.
Now I don't expect non car people to know everything, if someone says they don't know what I need to bring. I recommend they watch a YouTube video and to send me the list of tools the person says in the video. I OFTEN DOUBLE CHECK AND WATCH VIDEOS MYSELF TO GUARANTEE THE LIST OF TOOLS. I do this because I believe everyone should understand how their vehicles work and it's great for learning about your car.
This is where I might be the asshole. Someone I know asked if I could replace their brakes and I gave them my list of terms on the repair of the vehicle. I was told that it was unreasonable for me to demand they order the parts themselves and ask for a list of tools that the job requires, because that's what I'm for.
I responded with that they are getting the labour for free and most videos are 15 minutes long and most shops in my area charge 140 an hour for labour and brakes all around can be anywhere from 2-4 hours. It's not that hard to supply me with the info and parts.
Now I'm being called an asshole, because it's my job and if they have to the work to give me the info they should just pay a shop to do it.
I'm just trying to help friends and family save money, and I don't think it's unreasonable, so AITA?
Edit: I'm not a full mechanic yet, I don't have my license yet, but I'm very close. I have 5 years of experience and over 10,000 hours of in shop training. I work in a brand specific shop, but have knowledge of working on other brands of vehicles.

2024.05.13 20:57 Head_Satisfaction_62 Max G30 has weird loud noise and shuts down
 | I recently was going downhill on my Max G30 when there was a random Amazon truck and I had to break head to avoid a collision. The scooter made a poping noise and after that any acceleration or braking produces a loud buzzing noise(check video, when I ride it the noise is worse). The scooter shuts itself down after a couple of minutes of use. Bought 7 months ago and used it for short commutes. Segway refuses to honor the warranty because I bought it from an "uncertified seller" on Amazon. What can be the problem? Any ideas what needs to be replaced? I don't know what to do but am in a dire need to fix the scooter as my commutes are miserable now. PS: I'm so angry with Segway since they make up reasons not to honor the warranty submitted by Head_Satisfaction_62 to NinebotMAX [link] [comments] |

CONTENT OVERVIEW
TRACKS
Mobil 1 & Maple Valley - Maple Valley has been updated with new track signage featuring Mobil 1 branding as part of a partnership between Forza and Mobil 1 to celebrate Mobil 1’s 50th anniversary. Placed a barrier along the pit exit at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. To accommodate this change, leaderboards for this track have been reset. Increased the track material luminance to be more physically correct, improving the overall contrast and color saturation of the track. This affects newly released tracks as well as future track updates. Reset leaderboards for Le Mans track layouts following the changes made to this track in Update 7. Update 8 does not include a new track location – our next track release is scheduled for Update 9, expected to be available in June.
FEATURES AND CHANGES
Livery Editor
Update 8 introduces a Vinyl Material tool to the Livery Editor which can be used to uniformly adjust all vinyl materials on a car from matte (non-reflective) to glossy (reflective). This includes a reset option to revert all vinyls to match car paint glossiness. Imported designs from Forza Horizon 5 using its similar feature will automatically inherit these values. When removing a livery from a vehicle, the color will now be reset to the default manufacturer color instead of the color when the player purchases it. Adjusted the arrangement of hint buttons in Livery Editor at the bottom of the screen. The ‘Find Designs’ menu is now accessible for rental cars when players try to open it from ‘Design & Paint Menu’ and ‘Livery Mode Select’ scenes. Added iconography to layers in the Livery Editor. The player can now see icons to indicate if it’s a mask layer or a locked layer. Other fixes listed in the Release Notes.
Tire Wear Scale
We’ve added a Tire Wear Scale option to Free Play and Private Multiplayer, allowing adjustments to the rate at which tires are worn. 1x is the default value. At 2x, tire wear will occur twice as fast. Values range from .5x to 10x. This setting is found in the Event Setup Rules tab and in the Fuel & Tire menu when on track.
Safety Ratings and Matchmaking
We’ve improved Safety Ratings in Featured Multiplayer by increasing the number of previous races the Safety Rating uses to determine your rating from 10 to 20, and by making on-track collisions more impactful to Safety Rating. These changes will take effect after your first race in Update 8. In addition, we’ve updated the matchmaking algorithm to search for a narrower range of Safety Ratings compared to your own. For example, players with an ‘S’ Safety Rating should no longer be matched with players who have ‘E’ and ‘D’ Safety Ratings. Groups will be connected to matches based on the player with the lowest Safety Rating.
Car Divisions and Events
Corrected an issue where the 1969 Lola #6 Sunoco T70 MkIIIB was eligible for the Vintage Le Mans Prototypes Series rather than the Prototype Group Racing Series. The 2020 KTM X-Bow GT2 and the 2020 Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 are moved from the Forza GT Series to the Modern Factory Racecar Series in Featured Multiplayer. The 2019 Porsche #70 Porsche Motorsport 935 has been added to the Forza GT Series. We’re currently working on recategorizing Forza GT racecars into separate spec divisions and expect to push these changes into the game this summer.
Car Balancing
The following cars have been rebalanced in Featured Multiplayer Spec Series: Featured Multiplayer Spec Series Car Name Change Summary Forza GT Series 2019 Ginetta G55 GT4 Engine torque: +25% Car Mass: +13.4% Front Downforce: -45% Rear Downforce: -45% Early Factory Racecar Series 1997 McLaren F1 GT Increased Power 10% Early Factory Racecar Series 1997 Porsche 911 GT1 Strassenversion Increased Power 13% Lowered weight/ballast 3% Early Factory Racecar Series 1989 Ferrari F40 Competizione Increased power 10% Weight decreased 2%
AI Drivatar behavior
We’ve reduced unnecessary braking scenarios for Drivatar AI opponents. Examples of this include braking while attempting to pass, two cars wide in corners, and at the apex of corners.
Other Changes
We’ve updated Featured Multiplayer events to use consistent weather conditions and avoid unpredictable weather transitions mid-race. The Open Class Tour in Career mode has been migrated from the Builders Cup tab to the Featured tab. The Open Class Tour will be found in the Featured tab going forward. Starting with Update 8, VIPs can look forward to an exclusive 15% discount on a car every week in the Showroom alongside the 30% discount on Spotlight cars. Screen Narrator will now read associated credit bonuses as part of the option value names on Free Play Advanced options which affect credits earned during the event. This change also fixes the display of the bonus percentages for all players. Screen Narrator now fully supports the “Series Standings” leaderboard scene accessed from the Builders Cup Event Setup scene. The Tune Setups menu is now fully narrated. Added descriptive text for the SoundCloud Driver Suit.
CARS
Update 8 adds five cars to the game: 2 Reward Cars (Porsche 935 and BMW 1 Series M), and 3 Spotlight cars (Ginetta G40 Junior, Porsche Cayman GTS, and Elemental RP1). These additions bring the total game roster to 590 cars.
Reward Cars
Reward cars are available only from completing events in the Builders Cup Career.

2024.05.13 19:38 halfkeck "I fubar'ed it" A 24 Hours of Lemons story
Things have been busy here so I thought I would catch up on our two latest race adventures.
It's time for another race, so I hook up to the trailer and bring it to work. The Miata has been in the enclosed trailer since I ran it through the Christmas parade, but now it is time to wake it from it's winter slumber and start preparing it for Barber, our 10th 24 Hours of Lemons race.
The car should not need much as we ran nearly flawless at the last race at Road America. We had one spin and the wing mounts broke but that was about it.
I get it to the shop and we hurry up and start in. I already have one bay tied up with the next car we are building (more on that later, it is epic) and can't afford to tie up a second during business hours. Youngest jumps in and rebuilds the entire wing assembly. Manny comes by and drives the car to his place and keeps it there until a few more parts come in. It's a block or two away from the shop, we can nearly see it from the front sidewalk. No plates, no insurance, no problem.
Next we change out the brake pads, front rotors, front brake hoses and rear pads. We also change the timing belt after a debate on exactly how many race hours the old one has. Change the oil and the car is ready to load.
Racerguy comes down and we leave out Thursday night. I am driving a little fast as the website shows the gates close at 9 and our gps says we are expected to get there at 9.01. A quick fuel stop and a brisket sandwich at Buccees off I65 in Alabama and we are rolling on through the night.
Finally we get to Barber Motorsports park in Leeds Alabama. Just before 9pm we get in line and get signed in. The team ahead of us is just realizing they lost a wheel off their enclosed sometime on their tow in. The way I was driving before we stopped for fuel I could have lost the car out the back like in the movie Cars and not noticed. Luckily everything seems to be in one piece, we give everything a check over and drop the trailer and head off to the hotel which is thankfully just across the street from the entrance to the track.
The next morning we are up early. No Gill this race as he has had foot surgery and is out of commission, which means we are sorely missing his cooking skills. So we take advantage of the breakfast at the hotel and head over to the track. After we unload the car we have a discussion which ends with us moving across the paddock to the far side as the side we have had for the last few years is shorter and we can't park the trailer in that area as the new trailer is about ten foot longer than the old open trailer.
After the first of two drivers meetings of the weekend (many tracks do the practice day and hold their own drivers meeting to explain their own rules, then the next day Lemons runs the race and has their drivers meeting) we load a driver in the car and send him out to practice. Rinse and repeat until we have sent all the drivers out for a few laps.
By then it is time for inspections. First off all the tech inspection. They have a big crew this race but our favorite inspector Dale Strimple is there. He's knowledgeable, affable and very popular among all the racers. Every day is also his birthday, a story best told later. He and the other tech people soon pass our car then it's time for BS tech.
We have gone all out this race for our theme. This has been a long time thought of mine, it just took a while to get it enacted. So for context I am a cancer survivor and we are always doing crazy themes to try and draw attention to the importance of early detection in cancer improving your chances. In the past we have done free colonscopy tests with huge antique cameras and motor oil for props which thankfully no one took us up on. Later we have done dinosaurs with the inflatable dino costumes to bring home the point that that "dinosaurs never got checked and now they are extinct" which is also on the side of the car. It was popular, I mean who doesn't like to see a inflatable dinosaur walking around?
Today we have again upped our game. We are taking a scene from one of the funniest movies I have ever seen, Johnny Dangerously. There's a part where Micheal Keaton's character is counseling his younger brother not to have sex until he is married, which is funny in itself because Micheals character is always surrounded by a crowd of ladies who apparently are all competing for his affections. Anyhow he shows his brother this video of all these poor guys who are suffering from poor choices that have caused them to have severely enlarged testicles. Like basketball sized. Watch it sometime, it's hilarious. So we made up special pants to hold some dodgeballs and shirts that said: "mens health is no joke, get checked before you croak!" We got a lot of attention for that and even made the wrap video. Walking in those pants with the dodgeballs was not easy!
The next day it's race day. It could not be a nicer day in Alabama. Temps are great, sun is shining. We get through the drivers meeting and line up the cars. Racerguy is going first, we are trying to balance our drivers so that everyone gets one start or one finish for the weekend. It's fun to finish the race or the day and fun to start as well.
The flag drops and we are off. It was a complete fiasco at the start! Someone oiled down half the track on the pace laps and the track was not ready when they dropped the green. It was an immediate yellow but cars where stacking up and passing then realizing the yellow was out. Race control messed up that one pretty badly. It took another ten minutes to clean the track. Finally it really is time for a start and we go green for real. Racerguy is driving smooth as always and moving up. He brings the car from 87th out of 131 cars there to a respectable 39th when the first incident happens. A car spins and hits our rf wheel. Racerguy didn't think much of it but they flagged him in anyway. While in the penalty box we realize the rf is going flat. I did not see it then but by the time we get the car up to our spot in the paddock the wheel is destroyed. We slap another wheel on and send him back out. We lost nearly all the spots we gained, dropping to 78th on the board. Sucks but it happens.
The rest of his stint goes great and he brings the car back to pit road and we put in Youngest. He is running great and the car is showing no signs of any issues from the earlier contact. He starts making up ground and we get all the way up to 54th. Then I get a radio call. "The car is on fire and stopped running!"
What?!!! I radio back asking if he needs to get out of the car. "I'm trying to decide that" Ok, maybe not such a big fire then? We have to wait for more information and in a few minutes the rollback shows up with him in the car. We have had a wiring fire from the passenger side floorboard where the stock PCM harness is. I immediately think the car is done but after Youngest gets some fresh air he jumps in and cuts all the burnt wires out and patches it all up. Start to finish we are off the track an hour and a half and drop to 90th.
I suit up and take the car out to see if it will run or not. It struggles and will only get up to 45, so I bring it right back in. Youngest thinks he knows exactly what is wrong and jumps in again and patches one more wire. I go out and the car is spot on. I start clicking off laps and trying some things the guys said to do to improve on my lap times. There's a few parts where I just need to be more aggressive and roll through and trust the car more. I pick up about four seconds off my best time and am pretty pleased by that. The car runs flawless for the rest of my stint and I bring it back to pit road for the crew to fuel and driver change. We put Manny in the car and send him out. He's running some fast laps and really pushing the car. All the sudden we realize we do not see the car going by. One of the other teams say our car is in the wall on the front stretch. Manny comes over the radio "I FUBAR'ed it" Great, The front stretch at Barber is one of the places I have noted will bite you pretty hard. I have seen a few Lemons cars get really messed up there including a 63 Valiant last year. I am expecting the worst when the roll back comes by with the car for the second time this day.
It's pretty bad. The nose is knocked sideways, the steering is all out of sorts, a closer look reveals the lf tie rod is broken. The right rear is all messed up, the wheel is pushed so far forward it is into the quarter panel and won't even turn. We put the car up on jack stands and look it over. Not good. But there's glimmers of hope. The radiator is not broke. The engine is still fine. The core of the car seems square. And we have almost an entire Miata in parts in totes in our trailer. Maybe we can fix this. I start dragging out parts and we start changing them. The tie rod on the front is soon changed and we now have both wheels pointing the same direction. Youngest takes the nose off and straightens the brackets that hold it and the splitter in place and adds a whole lot of zip ties.
On the rear it just keeps going and going deeper. We change the knuckle, the lower control arm and the upper. We spend a long time saving the bolt that goes through the lower control arm and knuckle, we do not have another. This one is bent and has questionable threads too. In true lemons never say die fashion we beat it out of the bent parts, straighten it and when we cannot find the correct die to chase the threads we use one that is close and pray it works. It does, but then we get it all back together and realize even with all the parts replaced we still have two inches of rear toe. Just a wee more than the 1/16th we started with.
Turns out the rear subframe is bent, so we all go out and start walking the pits looking to borrow a port a power. This small hydraulic jack comes with rams and other attachments and has a pump attached to a hose so you can jack and bend parts that are bent like ours. We actually end up borrowing two after searching almost every team that is still around. It's getting dark, rain is moving in after midnight and the clock is ticking on the car being done. Is it fixable or is the damage terminal? There are three guys under the car jacking and measuring and I am handing them parts and tools and making a run for food.
In a dramatic fashion, they pull it out. I run for food and they finally announce the car is perfect. I think they worked until nearly midnight, but everything they measured was on the money. It was an amazing effort and a huge comeback. We all fall into an exhausted sleep wondering if the car will drive good tomorrow or did we miss something important.
The next morning dawns and as expected its raining. And colder. I cannot emphasize enough just how wet and cold it was. All day long it rained and I think the temps dropped. Made for a miserable day, pretty sure even a duck would have been unhappy.
I go out first, I had called this stint early on. Sometimes you have to pull the car owner card. It's a two hour stint then a quiet hour then the race resumes.
We gas up the car and I line up. The car seems to drive straight, but it is raining and the track is slippery so who really knows? The car stumbles a bit on accel and I wonder if we outsmarted ourselves with our home made ram air system that sucks air from right below where the left headlight was. It keeps on doing that for a few laps then finally gets better.
Driving in the rain is not without it's challenges. You have to drive very carefully and not push the car too hard. The fun part is the Miata goes straight when you floor it so anytime I get a chance I gas it up and go hard to the next corner where I slow down and ease through it. Soon enough another issue arises. The windshield starts fogging up. It gets real bad on yellow flags where we all slow down then gets better if I have a good run at speed, but there are times a smart person would have pulled off as you cannot see much at all. But most of us aren't real smart. I can't reach the windshield or I would try to wipe it. The temptation is there to loosen the belts and get enough room to reach but even I am not that crazy. I keep the belts tight but do take off one glove and give it a few swipes under a long yellow then hasten to put the gloves back on. There's probably not much chance of a fire in these conditions but no sense chancing it. I've seen pictures of burns from race car incidents and they aren't pretty.
On one corner I make a mistake, I get off line to let a really aggressive car go by. It's the Party Girl car and they are hyper aggressive. If you would think they would wait to pass until you get through a critical part you'd be wrong, they typically will jam their car in wherever they can and go on. Other fast cars are a bit more respectful and do a better job on the give and take. Not wanting to make an issue, I get over and promptly realize there is zero grip outside on this corner and slide through the grass. I go to penalty and explain what happened. The judge asks if I learned anything, I said "Yes, next time to be a jerk" I might not have used that exact wording but I meant it. The same car also was what indirectly caused the wreck the day before, their aggressive driving was what caused Manny to get the red mist when they did the same thing passing him. He over drove the car after that and lost it. Mental note to drive them the same way going forward, we both can be hyper aggressive and see where that leads. We have a few more cars to build in the driveway if need be.
After my two hours are up, I bring the car in and explain about the terrible fogging and vision issue. Manny goes out after the quiet hour and slides off the track for black flag number two. It's just very nasty out there and cars are going off all the time. We fix up a ice scraper with a rag tied to it to give the driver a method of clearing the fog. It's primative but way better than nothing. The drivers report they used it quite a bit the rest of the day. It's just gloomy and the race is going on, but cars are hydroplaning if they get into the water which is starting to pool on parts of the track. The rest of us are watching from inside Manny's car with the heat on, it's gotten that cold and wet.
We are so far behind now we aren't bothering to suit up and go to pit lane. Rather we bring the car up to the pumps, get the driver out and fuel and put the next driver in. It's still raining and not having to get anymore wet than necessary is a plus. Racerguy gets flagged in after he's run about half his stint and he has no idea why. Apparently the cameras show what they thought was contact in the corner, he says he got real close and braked hard to avoid it. The car shows no new signs of contact. The judge tells us one more flag and he's parking us for the rest of the day. Over contact that someone thought they saw on camera that apparently never happened. (I went to look this up on our go pro footage but the chip glitched and we had no footage)
Racerguy goes out and finishes. He reports the same as Manny, the track is getting increasingly treacherous. Very few cars are getting around good, if you have a front wheel drive with skinny tires, today was your day. I saw a escort wagon running laps as fast as us and later the Dodge Caravan passed us.
Youngest goes out and after about 15 minutes I notice the lap counter is not updating. I look outside the trailer and he is in the car, sitting there. We go out and he announces he cannot drive the car anymore, it's sideways all the time. I ask if he wants to load the car and he said yes. I don't object. We race for the fun of it, and at that point none of us were having fun. We loaded in the rain and left before the race was over. Many other teams had already done the same. Some were gone before the day ever started. We have raced in the rain before but this was the worst conditions I have ever seen on the track. Barber is a top notch facility, it was just such a lingering rain and the temps being below 40 made it miserable. The vision and grip levels seemingly got worse as the day went on and the water built up and the temps dropped. We saw a lot of big problems and overcame many. Probably if we were not so exhausted from fixing the car and were in the hunt for anything we might have stayed until the end. As it were, we dropped from 65th to 67th or so. Time to rebuild and get dried out and ready for the next race.

2024.05.13 19:28 Apostata Is it possible to use external microphone while listening with internal speakers?
Hello all,
I'm using a 2017 MB Pro and ideally I'd like to do Zoom calls with an external microphone (3.5mm connector) because the internal mic is picking up the sound of the heatsink spinning which affects the sound quality. One problem I ran into is that a 3-pole external microphone using the mic-in slot isn't recognized by the laptop. However, watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRMGqLGsQ1I) I found a workaround (using a splitter). The problem I have now is that, perhaps because of this workaround, when I look at my Output options all it shows are Headphones. The internal speakers aren't presented as an option.
Can anyone suggest a way to use a 3.5mm external mic while listening to audio from the internal speakers? I hope I made this clear enough.

I'm using a 2017 MB Pro and ideally I'd like to do Zoom calls with an external microphone (3.5mm connector) because the internal mic is picking up the sound of the heatsink spinning which affects the sound quality. One problem I ran into is that a 3-pole external microphone using the mic-in slot isn't recognized by the laptop. However, watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRMGqLGsQ1I) I found a workaround (using a splitter). The problem I have now is that, perhaps because of this workaround, when I look at my Output options all it shows are Headphones. The internal speakers aren't presented as an option.
Can anyone suggest a way to use a 3.5mm external mic while listening to audio from the internal speakers? I hope I made this clear enough.
2024.05.13 19:09 yelpvinegar Create A Sock Funnel To Sell Your Freelance Services
One store that always surprises me in malls and shopping centers is the funky sock store. They always seem to be empty, but I see them all over.
Anyways, this article isn’t about selling actual socks.
The sock funnel is an idea I heard about a while ago from my favorite Twitter copywriter — George Ten. This isn’t a new idea. It’s a basic marketing funnel strategy.
Giving it a clever name helps you understand and remember it.
The beginner’s luck didn’t last.
A few months down the road I had zero clients and no Plan B. I was trying everything I knew and nothing worked. My foot was jammed on the gas pedal. The tires were spinning. My car wasn’t moving.
The big mistake?
I was trying to sell my services and no one was interested. I assumed that since I was providing a service that businesses need, I could simply tell them about it and they’d hire me.
That’s not how the world works.
99% of your potential customers aren’t ready to buy right now. And they don’t trust you — a stranger on the internet. It’s a quick and easy “No” for them.
That’s why you need to build a sock funnel.
How do you grab attention?
You need to uncover the value that’s within you — hiding in your brain. You have some insight or knowledge that your potential customers don’t have. You wouldn’t be freelancing if you didn’t. The challenge is usually discovering what that is, because you think it’s not valuable. It’s common for you.
A friend messaged me on LinkedIn the other day. They have a website for their local service business and didn’t know how to get SEO traffic.
I looked at the site and within 5 minutes I had a list of 10 simple things they could do.
That stuff is common and uninteresting in my mind, but extremely valuable and helpful for my friend.
Here are some great question to ask:
Unless they’re actively searching to hire a freelancer like yourself, they have a current solution. They’re content with where they’re at. They need to become discontent before they hire you.
So, what would make them ditch their current solution?
Which one of your industry secrets would make them say, “Why didn’t they tell me about this??”
My car got a flat tire a few months ago.
I took it into the shop and found out that the other front tire was on it’s last leg and both needed to be replaced. That’s not surprising. What was surprising was that the mechanic told me the car was out of alignment, causing the tires to wear down faster than normal. He showed me the uneven wear on my tires.
He could’ve just sold me the new tires and got paid. The additional insight helped build trust. And if I had been going to a different shop — one that didn’t tell me about the alignment problem — I’d want to switch to the shop that’s more helpful.
When I started freelancing, I was providing SEO services.
One of the secrets I learned about was internal linking. Almost every website I worked on needed more internal links.
Imagine you’ve been working with an SEO agency and they weren’t adding internal links to your site. Then I share the secret about internal links with you. This simple will get you better results. You’d think about switching who you work with.
You’re going to package it up nicely as a free product and send it out into the world.
Start with one of these, but you’ll want to test a few of them to see what grabs the most attention. It’s very important to test this. Don’t assume you know what’ll work best.
A car mechanic might have something like:
See which one gets the most attention.
Some trial and error is required, but I promise it’ll work.
And once you know what grabs the most attention, you can create your first pair of socks. No, not actual socks. You’ll create a low-ticket product around the same topic.
For example, the mechanic finds that the 7 simple things that keep cars running smoothly past 70,000 miles ad works the best. Their pair of socks can be:
Ideally, these low-ticket sales will cover the cost of ads you’re running, or be a nice bonus to your income. You also filtered out the leeches and tire kickers who will waste your time and never give you $1.
Now that they trust you enough to open their wallet, you can tell them about your main offer. I saw you found a nice pair of socks, we’ve also got suits for every occasion.
And if they’re still not ready? No problem. Keep selling them more socks.
We’ve got a drawer full of socks that you’ll love. You bought the red pair, but you probably need a black pair as well, and these green ones are trending. Socks are an easy yes.
What happens?
Every pair they buy makes them like and trust you more.
They start going to the mechanic for wiper blades, then new headlight bulbs, and oil change, etc. It’s only a matter of time before they need to get new tires and brakes, and that’ll be the first place they go to.
Selling more socks is the key to selling more suits.

Giving it a clever name helps you understand and remember it.
The big mistake I made
I started freelancing almost exactly four years ago. My journey began with a bit of luck and I had my first four clients nearly overnight.The beginner’s luck didn’t last.
A few months down the road I had zero clients and no Plan B. I was trying everything I knew and nothing worked. My foot was jammed on the gas pedal. The tires were spinning. My car wasn’t moving.

That’s why you need to build a sock funnel.
Uncover your potential
The first thing you need to do unlocks the potential for the rest of your funnel. The goal here is to grab your prospect’s attention.How do you grab attention?
You need to uncover the value that’s within you — hiding in your brain. You have some insight or knowledge that your potential customers don’t have. You wouldn’t be freelancing if you didn’t.

Here are some great question to ask:

- What am I surprised that my clients never do or always miss?
Why would that make them switch?
Now, you need to make sure that your industry secrets are things your potential clients care about.Unless they’re actively searching to hire a freelancer like yourself, they have a current solution. They’re content with where they’re at. They need to become discontent before they hire you.

Free info
Think about whatever that is for your niche.You’re going to package it up nicely as a free product and send it out into the world.

A car mechanic might have something like:
or
My internal link example could be:
It’s free, helpful information that other people aren’t telling them about. You position yourself as an expert, and you stop competing with everyone else who’s trying to sell their services.
Sell the socks
So, now you create a few variations of the free info. Run Facebook ads, publish an article on Medium, make a YouTube video.See which one gets the most attention.
Some trial and error is required, but I promise it’ll work.
And once you know what grabs the most attention, you can create your first pair of socks. No, not actual socks. You’ll create a low-ticket product around the same topic.
For example, the mechanic finds that the 7 simple things that keep cars running smoothly past 70,000 miles ad works the best. Their pair of socks can be:
The SEO can create a guide:
Perfect. Now they’re a paying customer.
Ideally, these low-ticket sales will cover the cost of ads you’re running, or be a nice bonus to your income. You also filtered out the leeches and tire kickers who will waste your time and never give you $1.
Now that they trust you enough to open their wallet, you can tell them about your main offer. I saw you found a nice pair of socks, we’ve also got suits for every occasion.

They start going to the mechanic for wiper blades, then new headlight bulbs, and oil change, etc. It’s only a matter of time before they need to get new tires and brakes, and that’ll be the first place they go to.
To give you a quick recap:
- Brainstorm the free insights you can share
- Find out what grabs attention
- Create low-ticket products
- Tell them about your main offer
- Repeat 🔄
Selling more socks is the key to selling more suits.
2024.05.13 19:06 _jagermaestro_ Fast chirping/squeaking from rear left wheel at speed
 | Hello 👋 Replaced my front discs and pads 3 weeks ago. A day after collecting the car, noticed a very intermittent squeaking when cruising at low speed or bumps. At low speed or driving after the car has been parked up for a few hours, it is very intermittent. It doesn’t sound like the fast rotating sound above. Instead it just randomly makes that squeaking noise for a split second every few seconds over bumps, or smooth, or changing directions. Anything. submitted by _jagermaestro_ to MechanicAdvice [link] [comments] However, after driving for a little while, it gets like the video above. Worse and worse. This is after 45 minutes of driving but on a smooth motorway road. In contrast when I got in my car today for city driving and barely heard it except the random intermittent times. It happens when engaging the brakes and accelerating/coasting. The discs are very worn. There’s a rust band on the center and the outer edge. I’ve ordered new pads + discs. Also to note, as I slow down and eventually stop, the sound gets less and less and then as I stop, it’s a creaking sound, like an old door (bushing?). Then setting off it’s like a creaking “release” kind of sound. No idea?? 🤷 Any help appreciated. |

2024.05.13 18:02 nukleabomb Forza Motorsport Update 8.0 Release Notes – May 13, 2024

Bug Fixes and Improvements
Stability [All Platforms]- Fixed a game crash caused by quickly and repeatedly changing the number of Drivatar AI opponents in Free Play event setup. [1717959]
- Fixed an issue that occurred when exiting out of pre-race in Free Play quickly after switching cars or modifying the event setup would cause a soft lock in the loading screen. [1732080]
- Fixed a stability issue when the player would exit to Event Menu while on track in during a Test Drive. [1751335]
- Fixed an issue in which disconnecting and reconnecting a controller would prevent the player from progressing to the game menu. [1734977]
- Improvements have been made to video memory usage on PC.
- Addressed an issue where the screen would flash white when players entered the My Cars menu. [1749202]
- Fixed an issue on Steam where you would repeatedly be shown the Self-Improvement achievement, even when you haven't unlocked it. [1738129]
- Fixed an issue on Steam where the Safety Star and Safety Superstar achievements would accumulate incorrect progress after a multiplayer race. [1738130]
- Fixed an issue where the player could not exit out of Career when hovering over event posters and pressing the right mouse button. [1717135]
- Fixed an issue where Exit Event messages could not be closed out using a Cancel Button (B Button/ESC Key/Right Mouse Click). [1717315]
- Selecting replays using the mouse no longer requires a double click. [1580893]
- We’ve made changes to how PC graphics settings are applied to ensure you are only prompted to restart the game when it is necessary. [1568770]
- Fixed an issue where the player is prompted to restart the game when only the ‘Show Framerate’ toggle has been modified. [1755225]
- Fixed a PC-specific issue where the game would crash when disconnecting a wheel and reconnecting with a controller in Featured Multiplayer. [1728706]
- Introduced a Tire Wear Scale option to Free Play and Private Multiplayer, allowing adjustments to the rate at which tires are worn. 1x is the default value. At 2x, tire wear will occur twice as fast. Values range from .5x to 10x. This setting is found in the Event Setup Rules tab and in the Fuel & Tire menu when on track.
- Migrated the Open Class Tour in Career from the Builders Cup tab to the Featured tab. The Open Class Tour will be found in the Featured tab going forward.
- Fixed an issue where lap times faster than 18 seconds on Eaglerock Oval in Rivals X Class Time Attack leaderboards were not being posted.
- Fixed the achievement “Leisure Cruise” so that it now correctly unlocks when the specified criteria to complete a single lap at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps during sunset has been met. [1681510]
- Adjusted the rolling start in the Builders Cup Power Tour: Iconic Muscle event so that cars no longer collide before the 3-2-1. [1717346]
- Fixed an issue where players not using steering assists were given control of their car at the wrong time when exiting the pit. [1717893]
- Fixed a bug in Private Multiplayer lobbies where player cars would appear on the track instead of in the pits when the host changes the selected track and while one or more players are in the Post Race screen. [1729190]

- In Featured Multiplayer, Telemetry now states the correct number of Qualifying Laps before Featured Race. [1733624]
- Fixed an issue where every Featured Multiplayer post-race transition would only ever show Laguna Seca art as the next track. Now, the player will see the correct track loading screens when continuing from one completed Featured Multiplayer race to the next event. [1653249]
- Fixed an issue where the "Not Connected" UI popup would repeatedly show during sign-in even after a connection was regained. [1746586]
- Fixed an issue in the Settings menu where resetting all options to default values did not apply to Audio Performance. [1731587]
- We’ve updated Safety Ratings in Featured Multiplayer by increasing the number of previous races the Safety Rating uses to determine your rating from 10 to 20, and by making on-track collisions more impactful to Safety Rating. Changes will take effect after your first race in Update 8.
- In addition, we’ve improved the matchmaking algorithm to search for a narrower range of Safety Ratings compared to your own. For example, players with an 'S' Safety Rating should no longer be matched with players who have 'E' and 'D' Safety Ratings. Groups will be connected to matches based on the player with the lowest Safety Rating.
- We’ve updated Featured Multiplayer events to use consistent weather conditions and avoid unpredictable weather transitions mid-race. [1750733]

- Corrected an issue where the 1969 Lola #6 Sunoco T70 MkIIIB was eligible for the Vintage Le Mans Prototypes Series rather than the Prototype Group Racing Series. [1731588]
- The following cars have been rebalanced in Featured Multiplayer Spec Series:
Drivatar AI [All Platforms]
- Reduced unnecessary braking scenarios for Drivatar AI opponents. Examples of this include braking while attempting to pass, two cars wide in corners, at the apex of corners, and on straights.
- Increased the track material luminance to be more physically correct, improving the overall contrast and color saturation of the track. This affects newly released tracks as well as future track updates.
- Maple Valley has been refreshed with “Mobil 1 Presents Maple Valley” race day branding, which includes new track signage featuring Mobil 1.
- Fixed multiple pop-in zones across the entire Maple Valley track.
- Fixed multiple pop-in zones across the entire Mid-Ohio track.
- Fixed numerous areas across Mid-Ohio where textures were displayed at low resolution or stretched.
- Placed a barrier along the pit exit at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. To accommodate this change, leaderboards for this track have been reset.

- We’ve reset leaderboards for Le Mans track layouts following the changes made to this track in Update 7.
- 2016 Ford Shelby GT350R: Fixed an issue where suspension couldn’t be tuned without the Drift Suspension upgrade. [1648500]

- Introduced a Vinyl Material tool to the Livery Editor which can be used to uniformly adjust all vinyl materials on a car from matte (non-reflective) to glossy (reflective). This includes a reset option to revert all vinyls to match car paint glossiness. Imported designs from Forza Horizon 5 using its similar feature will automatically inherit these values.
- When removing a livery from a vehicle, the color will now be reset to the default manufacturer color instead of the color when the player purchases it. [1731939]
- Adjusted the arrangement of hint buttons in Livery Editor at the bottom of the screen. [1741965]
- Fixed an issue in the Livery Editor where the save popup would not be shown when exiting after flipping a decal or creating a mask from a layer. [1739245]
- The 'Find Designs' menu is now accessible for rental cars when players try to open it from 'Design & Paint Menu' and 'Livery Mode Select' scenes. [1643182]
- Fixed an issue where the game was creating empty base model liveries. Forza base liveries will no longer be created and stored unless it's the current livery in use. [1551365]
- Added iconography to layers in the Livery Editor. The player can now see icons to indicate if it's a mask layer or a locked layer. [1370431]

- Addressed an issue where player brake calipers were displaying the wrong color instead of the expected special colors. [1712512]
- Fixed an issue in the Design & Paint menu where non-block color vinyl shapes ignored mask effects. [1630741]
- Screen Narrator now properly narrates the “Place in Car Bay” scene. [1738094]
- Screen Narrator will now read associated credit bonuses as part of the option value names on Free Play Advanced options which affect credits earned during the event. This change also fixes the display of the bonus percentages for all players. [1721875]
- Fixed intermittent failures of Screen Narrator to read the tab names in the Builders Cup Series Selection scene. [1721928]
- Screen Narrator now fully supports the “Series Standings” leaderboard scene accessed from the Builders Cup Event Setup scene. [1721944], [1657223]
- Screen Narrator now correctly reads the Driving Assists modal popup for new players during the initial races of Career mode. [1738064]

- Fixed an issue where the word “Pause” is not translated in [ja-JP] (Japanese-Japan). [1749465]
- Fixed an issue where the word “Hardcore” is not translated in several languages. [1749471]

2024.05.13 15:41 Mech-lexic 2016 Nissan Frontier - How much “play in the wheel” would you accept on your vehicle?
Hello. I’d appreciate any advice you folks might be able to offer. I’ve been dealing with an insurance issue for months and I’m hitting a brick wall.
TL;DR Summary of the current issue: New control arms (aftermarket) were put on my vehicle (2016 Nissan Frontier SV 4x4) during some major repairs. After getting the vehicle back from my insurances' “preferred repair shop” I took it for an inspection and was advised by my mechanic that there was an issue with the fit of the new ball joints. He showed me that you can pull on the wheel and get a lateral wiggle. At the joint itself you can see it moves what I’d say is like a big 16th or a small 8th of an inch. And it's the same on both sides. So that’s my main question: At this connection point of the wheel, how much play would you accept on your vehicle?
My mechanic said he normally wouldn’t pass the MVI based on that but it was close, and if I wanted he’d give me the sticker but then advised that insurance wouldn’t do anything for me if it had a passed inspection. Longer version: I was rear-ended 7 months ago by a compact car going 100kph. I was in the middle of taking a turn and had the wheels cut but kept myself on the road to pull over. Back end of the truck was pretty smashed up, tow bar bent way in, frame was visibly crooked from two angles. I was no-fault so I was expecting a write-off but insurance went through with repairs. Valued the vehicle at 28k, over 5k over what I paid for it 3 years ago, and spent almost 23k on the repairs, and I can’t trade it in for half what they valued it at. It took 4 months to get the frame delivered, and a month in the shop. The control arms were aftermarket to “save money” because they were close to the write off line, and were 211$ each – not even 1% of the total on the total bill.
The dealership and repair shop deny there was any problems (there were others but they eventually fixed most of those) And I’ve spent 2 months trying to get my insurance to back me up on the control arm issue, but they have “sided with the dealership”. Escalating the issue I was told to get a third-party opinion from another dealership. I took it to another dealership, paid for an inspection and they said they found some play but that it was “within their tolerances but they didn’t have the figures for Nissan.” I also don’t know how they tested for the wiggle, because they didn’t find it on the other side.
I’m just worried about the dominoes this can topple down the road. With play in the wheel what’s the point of having done any tire alignment, that’s got to be putting extra stress on the bearings, and brakes. I was forced to drive a crooked frame for 5 months chewing tread off my tires, and had to replace 2-yo brakes right after getting it back, but insurance won’t do anything about those because its considered “standard wear and tear.”
So, am I wasting my time with all this? Is it worth me putting all this effort running around for opinions to fight with my insurance company who have tripled down on not being on my side? Should I take it back to that dealership and show them the video I have of the play? Am I just stuck with a junker truck until it’s paid off now?
Sorry for the novel. But I really would appreciate any opinions or advice you could offer. Thanks!

2024.05.13 15:25 recreationalchemstry Please help me proactively care for my 2013 Prius
I'll try to keep this short, and greatly appreciate any advice!
Sole owner of a 2013 prius persona ~182K miles. I've kept up with oil changes / fluid replacements, and have had to replace brakes, tires, normal wear and tear stuff. No issues with battery, electrical, engine, etc. Still on the original battery.
I know little to nothing about cars and am not very handy. I'd like to think I could follow a basic YouTube video if needed. What if anything should I be doing now to keep this thing on the road for as long as possible? Is there anything I can do myself, or would you bring the car in to have anything done to it, even though there are not currently any problems? Thank you.

Inside the box, you’ll find two tripods, each equipped with softboxes and lamps, along with a single gallows tripod featuring its own softbox and lamp. Additionally, the package includes ballast bags for added stability, though the absence of weights is a slight downside. Fear not, though; a couple of improvised items can serve as makeshift solutions. Oh, and let’s not forget the convenient carry bag for easy transport.

Investigation
These lights initially came to us (€94,95) with a veil of mystery, lacking any discernible brand. However, through some sleuthing and investigative prowess, we uncovered their true identity: Tectake Studio Lights, Product ID 400894 (€140,90 wow!) Now that we’ve cleared that up, let’s shed some light on what these babies have to offer.Unpacking
At first glance, the Tectake Studio Lights may seem like a steal, boasting a modest 4.3/5 rating from a handful of reviews with an affordable price on bol.com. But are they truly worth the investment?Inside the box, you’ll find two tripods, each equipped with softboxes and lamps, along with a single gallows tripod featuring its own softbox and lamp. Additionally, the package includes ballast bags for added stability, though the absence of weights is a slight downside. Fear not, though; a couple of improvised items can serve as makeshift solutions. Oh, and let’s not forget the convenient carry bag for easy transport.
Ease of setup
Setting up these lights is a breeze, which might also be a downside, requiring just a few simple steps to get you ready to illuminate your creative space in no time.Impressive of Illumination
With each light boasting a respectable 50 watts and a color temperature of 5500 Kelvin, you can expect impressive results akin to natural daylight. The softboxes effectively diffuse the light, casting soft, flattering shadows for professional-looking shots.User-friendly Features
Adjustable height? Check. Easy setup? Double check. These lights are undeniably user-friendly, making them ideal for beginners in a small studio.Word of Caution
However, before you rush to add these lights to your cart, there are a few caveats to consider. Some users have reported concerns regarding the lights’ durability, with mounting poles that feel somewhat flimsy. Attempting to extend them to their maximum height of 350cm may leave you feeling like you’re playing a precarious game of Jenga. Additionally, the cords could use a few extra inches for added convenience.The Verdict
So, are the Tectake Studio Lights worth it? If you’re operating on a tight budget and in need of basic illumination, then they might just fit the bill. However, if you’re seeking professional-grade equipment or prioritizing safety and durability, you may want to explore other options.Our Experience
Despite their shortcomings, we’ve incorporated these lights into our own studio setup due to lighting budget constraints. While they serve their purpose for now, we acknowledge their limitations and recommend exercising caution during use, and we don’t mean that lightly; these things can and will fall over.Conclusion
In conclusion, we’ve laid out the facts, but the ultimate decision rests with you, dear reader. Whether you opt for the Tectake Studio Lights or venture elsewhere, keep creating and shining bright!Where to get them
We have purchased these lights at bol.com, and we also found the official website, and an Amazon link.2024.05.13 15:04 hanteria Today I finally got my inside leg hang after 14 weeks of practicing inverts 💃🏼✨️
 | I made this video to show the progress in strength over 14 weeks. My leg hang isn't perfect, and I still need to take my other hand off the pole. But I am so proud of myself. I am 6 months self taught. Proper form and contact points have been such a struggle for me with no instructor to tell me what I'm doing wrong! If yall aren't taking videos every time you pole, start doing it!! Your progress may surprise you ❤️ submitted by hanteria to poledancing [link] [comments] |
2024.05.13 14:25 Lmp112 Blackvue dashcams, how to get videos from over 5hrs ago
How do i get older videos from today, 5 hrs ago? The app is only showing videos for the last hour (while car has been parked).
Had the worst road rage driver while driving home this afternoon. I swear he had hit the back of my car as I heard slight scratching noise, and he was so far up my a$$ I could only see the half of his car in the revision mirror (got home when it was dark, so will check for damage in the morning).
If anyone knows driving down from Kariong into Umina, at the top of the hill, he was on my ass, if I braked he would have crashed. 1 lane each way narrow road, I pulled off where it was safe enough to do so, so he could pass me, mind you there were cars in front of me so he couldn't go anywhere (also my 3yr old in the car with me, and I was bloody shaking, scared as hell) so I pull over, he passes, then he does the same straight away, pulls over so I pass him and then he cuts in back behind me, again right on my back.
Anyways, my phone says that "impact event" occurred today, and I just want to obtain the footage of it to confirm.

2024.05.13 13:47 Electronic_Army_8234 Replacing shimano GRX 810 Lever
Hi I’m about to replace my shimano GRX 810 right 11spd lever as the original is broken. The hydraulic disc brakes are the most confusing part to understand. What is the best way to replace the lever with it being full of mineral oil? Can I just open the bleed port at the bottom and drain the line fully by pulling with the bleed kit syringe? Or is the line connected to the lever sealed and I can remove it without oil going everywhere and then do a normal push oil up bleed like on park tools YouTube video? What’s the best way to do this?
