Came to say the same thing. I've got a 2018 Outback and I find the safety features non-intrusive. I don't drive like a nanny either. Only…
redvaldez replied to Anonymous101 on Lubluelu SL60D Lidar 2in1 Robotic Vacuum $253.96 Delivered ($247.99 eBay Plus) @ Lubluelu eBay
I just bought a Kogan LX16 and this Lubluelu appears to be identical in every single way except for the colour of the unit and the location…
The standard 112,500km service is $1000 neat - I say this as a 2018 Outback 3.6R owner whose car is getting its 112,500km service next…
redvaldez commented on What Things Are Just Not Worth The Money?
Just for another perspective, I've got a car in the garage (a V8 Commodore) that I rarely drive - would average less than 1,000 km a year.…
redvaldez commented on Fake Brake Callipers Cover or Paint?
My recommendation is that you only draw attention to your brakes with painted calipers, caliper covers etc if you have brakes you actually…
I reverse in everywhere. It's habit for me. In addition to the main reasons raised: In my first car - which was lowered - the spoiler…
redvaldez commented on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
I don't understand your friend's logic of using 98RON *just for the first year*. A slightly exaggerated comparison would be to say that you…
redvaldez replied to mrvaluepack on Filling at Least 98 Petrol for The First Year for Brand New Vehicle - Is This True?
USA's petrol uses a different metric to ours. 92-93RON over there is roughly equivalent to 98RON here.
redvaldez commented on Lawn Aerator - Which One to Buy?
Frankly unless you are buying something mechanical, I just don't think it would be worth it. If you can comfortably use a non-mechanical…
redvaldez commented on I Want to Sue My Lawyer
Actions speak louder than words: if you are not satisfied with the competency of your representation, take your matter elsewhere. A…
redvaldez commented on Got Advised to Sell Car by Mechanic (Pajero Sport), Advice Please? Car Recommenations?
Genuine DPF issues on a Pajero Sport are few and far between. I've seen a burn happen on my <15 minute drive to work in my old PS so it…
It makes more sense if you read it in context as "living at the death of the survivor of me and my deceased beneficiary", with "at the…
redvaldez commented on Road trip - roadside assist
> I see all of them have service area limits (e.g. 20km/50km) so does it mean a bigger player like NRMA will be better as they may have a…
redvaldez commented on How Often Do You Get You Car Serviced
I generally service my daily driver every 6 months / 10,000 km. I've owned a few non-daily drivers and they just get serviced every 12…
Would have been a cancelled deal or just damn good luck. My co-worker has ordered a white GXL with leather (to replace her existing white…
I noticed the same. 245/75/16LT All Terrain Plus were $405 at Mycar, versus $339 at Jax. Jax had 35% off Pirelli on Sunday and Monday, so…
redvaldez replied to Rako on Please Help Us Choose New Family Car (Newborn Coming Soon) - Budget $45,000
Was going to say the same thing. I bought my first Subaru a few months ago, a 2018 Outback 3.6R. It's a well built car that's nice to…
Just to be clear to the OP, the base model Tritons don't have Superselect - they just have the regular 2WD/4High/4Low. Agreed that it's a…
How much do you think lawyers make? Genuine question.
redvaldez commented on Stupidity of New Ute's Technology
> Rang this aftermarket place and they're saying you can't put a bull/nudge bar on a new ute because of this assist braking. I had a late…
Just to add to the replies already made, the police will do nothing if this is reported to them. If a mechanic was issuing dodgy roadworthy…
Detailing regularly will help. For the outside, a good quality sealant on the paint every three months would be my suggestion. Once the…
I've got a pair of RM Williams Craftsman boots for the last 4.5 years. They've been worn M-F the entire time (didn't do WFH) and then again…
redvaldez commented on How Come Private Businesses Can't Enforce Parking "Fines" but They Can Enforce Toll Fees?
The short answer is that toll roads [are authorised by…
The neighbours can simply dob you in for having an unapproved dwelling. They don't actually have to give a reason or be affected by it.…
redvaldez commented on Can Panel Beaters Respray and Match Colour and Quality of The Original Factory Paint Finish?
Have you tried to polish out the scratch? You are unlikely to eliminate it - and it may still stick out to you, given you know where it is…
I was going to say the same thing, also as a car enthusiast. I just picked up an Outback 3.6 with a CVT, and I actually don't mind it.…
redvaldez commented on 30% off Pirelli Tyres @ Jax Tyres (Online Only)
I was disappointed with this offer - namely the online booking process. I have a 4WD that came with 245/70/16 tyres, and I tried to book…
I still think you are in trouble if you need a car by the end of June - you will be wanting luck on your side regardless of model. The…
redvaldez commented on Who Has Isuzu Stock?
I joined a MU-X owners page and a 12 month wait for delivery seems to be pretty common. If you are in a hurry, I genuinely think your…
