Seems to limit DPF life, we often drive 50-400kms a day in only a couple of stints in the work cars, petrol may be a better choice for suburban run around. I guess petrol hybrid would be the sweet spot if they go that way in the future....

[Slides]

I know there are potential higher long term maintenance costs and DPF issues but drive a diesel before putting money down. Will be far better on the cruise speed torque and fuel consumption....

Interesting thoughts from people here.

We have a diesel sportage at work amongst rav4, rav4 hybrid and some others. Understanding I have an FD3S with MCA reds decent alignment and generally road drive it with semis so have reasonable expectations...

[Slides]

I would physically clean and get a remap (including EGR duty cycle) and at minimum a filter-separator on the crankcase vent, or packed catch can preferably plumbed a downstream facing spike in the exhaust post cat/DPF rather than back to inlet. Well...

Drives with left foot on the brake the entire time or shuffles back and forth with throttle on, not stopped?

I drive like a fuckwit on occasion and have never killed an auto.

[Slides]

Not that I want people to bin these but it would be a pretty sweet upgrade for an old lancer coupe or Mazda 121....

I would mention you don't mind paying the lawyer more than you get back if you have to sue them or report to fair trading etc.

Pretty compact

Do you wear a seatbelt? Why does you car have airbags? How often do you need those? Why are there sprinklers in carparks now? Nuclear plants don't go up often either, gonna camp out in Chernobyl?

Point is EVs, just like normal cars and any...

[Slides]

Yeah naa, that's like a reverse jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams. Shitty break bulb sprinklers will maintain enough water flow to absorb energy from most car fires, the intensity of the lithium fires and total energy is an order of magnitude higher....

Exhaust full of expanding foam?

[Slides]

Pretty good effort. Sounds like a racing sim with the blower noise.

[Slides]

Have you tried running a pre- filter water separator in line.

This isn't just a heat soak+humidity issue is it?

Were any of them flexible fuel tuned? Did problems go away or reduce on e85?

[Slides]

I will be going to Melbourne from Lake Macquarie for the weekend of 15th with my dual cab, might be able to sort something out. Empty on the way down, small rowing machine on the way back....

[Slides]

Yeah that seems like a good idea

[Slides]

I'm pretty happy that I bought my rx7 when I did, I think I will try to grab a V8 something and chuck on a positive displacement blower with a high stall once I have tuned the rx7, given nearly everything has gone stupid price wise recently it might...

[Slides]

I endorse these activities.

[Slides]

I acknowledged straight 4 cylinder motors have vibration issues, what I don't understand is why a V6 sports car needs one?...

[Slides]

The one on my bt50 was fairly flogged out at 100,000km, they do take some vibration out of big 4 cylinder motors but are expensive to replace. I can't really see the point on stuff which doesn't have issues with phase harmonics, even my 4 cylinder bt50...

[Slides]

Surely when they got to that point they could have looked at shaft drive or proper gear drives?
