Euro Engine Builders

Question/Help Wanted

Hi all, does anyone have any good recommendations for a Euro car engine builder in Auckland? Google isn't proving to be the most helpful, with diesel builders and other unrelated shops. It's a Volvo engine that is running, and needs a piston and ring replacement, hone, etc. Any suggestions would be great

Just wondering whether anyone has used them before? My gut is saying it's pretty dodgy and maybe just a Costco reseller?

Is there anyone who can explain the awful experience I'm having with this thing? I had an XZP for about 6 odd years, meanest phone I've ever had, still would be using it if the GPS didn't die. Battery still great, etc etc. Waited through the 1IV. Decided I needed a new one after the GPS issue left me stranded and the 1V was the latest

It's app performance has been terrible, I constantly get apps refusing to accept input or respond, where I then have to open the app history, close the app, wait a few seconds, reopen and maybe rinse repeat that process to get it working. Maps, will often be unable to be interacted with after a destination, buttons do nothing and are not on screen, have to cl

Hi there, just got a 1V and I'm finding that it keeps unlocking or attempting to when I put it in my pocket.

As far as I can tell I have it set to lock instantly on timeout, unlock only when I press the fingerprint scanner button. And yet if I lock it then put it in my pocket, I can find the phone warm later and find that I've been buttdialing a pin number into it for the past 30 mins

Any ideas? Is there a hidden knock to wake setting?

Hi all,

Just curious as to what some long term users of the 1V are finding? Are there any issues raising their heads over the months, or updates coming in to fix prior problems? Looking to get as much info as possible before committing to buying one

Confused Over Calcium

General Question

Not having done any blood work, but just tracking my eating for some years now. It got me wondering if I'm eating enough calcium while losing weight. Today for example, the main calcium foods I'd had were oat milk (100mls) and roughly 15g raw spinach in a chicken salad sandwich. Dinner being a chicken risotto with mixed veg. Minimal calcium I can see being I didn't add cheese to the risotto. Some days I'd have 180g yoghurt. Rarer than that, some cheese on its own. Typically that would leave me around the 40-60% rda mark according to my fitness pal, on a normal days eating.

Also through winter and work I'd been realising I don't get enough sun exposure, looked up vit d supps, then it was vi

I totally understand that the XZP is stupidly old at this point, but I'm finding it weirdly hard to pull the trigger on an upgrade. It's like even after all those years there's still broken things with areas of the phone, not to mention the incredible price. I paid under half of what the current phones go for and it feels weirdly more complete of a phone, even though its old and shit

​

7 years on I still get a full day of light usage out of it, only occasionally the GPS gets all wonky and needs to be restarted, and the bluetooth sometimes does dicky things.

But when I read through what people are experiencing with the 1V, it almost puts me off upgrading and just carrying

I'm in an unfamiliar area and I'm trying to make some loop trips in Google maps so I can find my way while getting out for a ride. Like I want it to start from home, go around an hour or 2 loop away from home then have it come back home. In one continous journey.

I can get a multiple stop trip going, but then it stops the nav at each stop and where my phone is, I have to stop, take gloves off, get phone from tail unit, tell it to continue nav, then it just does it again at the next stop. Google assistant doesn't seem to be able to work for what I want either

Does anyone have any good tips? Ideally to be able to draw a route out and have it pickup the nearest roads would be perfect, but I c

Helmet Speakers Without External Unit

Purchase/Transaction Advice

Does anyone here know of any reasonable bluetooth helmet speaker setups that don't have the external unit stuck onto the helmet? Google isn't showing any results

I just want to be able to get satnav directions when I want them from my phone in my pocket, don't need intercom with other riders or don't want to have music blasting. This isn't for long distance riding, so doesn't need touring type longevity.

Hi all,

I'm wanting to get a decent wireless headset, with microphone integrated. I usually use Shure stuff (SRH1540's and some old SE215 buds with a Fiio Bluetooth setup) but I'm wanting a wireless headset to be used for some gaming and voice chats, as well as just general use.

I see a lot of gaming styled headsets which is not really the style I'd want. But finding some with microphones seems to always lead to that style.

I have just bought a set of Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless ones as they seemed pretty subdued looking as well as specced well, but the mic level on playstation is barely loud enough to be heard, plus the ANC feature has hardware issues on mine. They will be retur

ANC Pulsing?

Product Help

Hi there, just bought an Arctis Nova Pro Wireless and have a couple weird issues.

First one is when I turn on the ANC, I can feel in my right ear this pulsing kind of sound, like the noise cancellation is outputting some kind of wrong tone or interference. It's impossible to use it more than 30 seconds before your ears really start to feel it. Left ear seems fine, sounds flat and normal.

The other one is that the microphone seems to be incredibly quiet on ps4, with all volume settings at max. I did a firmware update which seems to have helped a bit, but it's still tapped out for volume and it's only just good enough

I can return the headset within 7 days no questions, but these issues ar

I've run into this a couple times with Neon, where they seem to provide partially censored content, which seems unusual on a subscription service. Is there some parental filter I'm missing? It's not like it's free to air TV

Currently rewatching BB and finding words like "shit" and "fuck" are cut out...in a show where there is very gruesome murder, drug dealing and use, etc..

I usually buy one each Easter to see if they're still trash, anyone had one this year that can confirm before I give Cadbury a sale? Still solid, gritty paste inside?
