I went to change my 401(k) contribution in my company's Fidelity portal and inadvertently put 3% into a post-tax Roth. I caught it after one pay period. Our joint income exceeds the Married Filing Jointly (MAGI) limit.

Is my understanding correct? Any advice on how to rectify this is most welcome.

With life and family I just don’t shoot anymore. I’ve got a Colt AR, Arsenal AK, and Tavor X95 that I’m looking to get rid of.

Any advice on how best to do that would be much appreciated.

After 165K miles, the time has come to replace my VANOS for a second time. While at it, I'll be doing the oil filter housing gasket, spark plugs, valve cover gasket, and intake boots. I had not planned on removing the intake.

I'm debating whether I should do the hard coolant pipes while I have the engine apart for the aforementioned things. I have already replaced all the soft coolant hoses, radiator, expansion tank, and thermostat about 12K miles ago when the radiator started leaking. I figured, "While I'm in there..." I might as well do a cooling system overhaul. The water pump was replaced with a Stewart unit about 65K miles ago.

The cooling system works great. The previous owner and I

I’m also most certain that the issue I’m having is related to the VANOS exhaust piston and/or solenoid, but would love confirmation.

My E46 ZHP has 163K mikes. I am the second owner. I have proof of every maintenance interval being met going back 20 years. The Dr. VANOS unit is 9 years old and has 61K miles on it.

I’ve had two instances this winter when a cold start on a cold day resulted in the SERVICE ENGINE SOON (SES) light, rough idle, and the code: 28BC exhaust camshaft, stiff. Both times the SES light went off once the car warmed up a little. I also got stored misfire codes both times.

Nothing a VANOS seal and solenoid problem won’t fix, right? RIGHT?

I recently got a PC refresh and my company just gifted me my old Dell laptop. I am trying to create a machine that I can use for personal purposes and removing everything about it related to my employer.

I have removed the BIOS password, updated to the latest BIOS that I got from Dell, and and wiped the hard drive. I created Windows installation media on USB with another computer.

I reset to BIOS defaults, booted from the USB, and got most of the way through the Windows installation process and had it say, "Welcome to [MY COMPANY]!" I don't understand how it can still have any record of being my old work computer as I've reset to BIOS defaults and wiped the hard drive.

Any help is much

I'm looking at an E46 330i ZHP and an E82 128i M Sport. Both are manuals and slicktops. I plan on buying one or the other as a fun daily, even though I really won't commit much in a post-COVID world. I don't need 4 doors, but I don't mind having 4 doors.

Which is more special? Which is more of the "Ultimate Driving Machine?"

Hey all, I’ve owned just about every major vehicle manufacturer with the exception of Mercedes-Benz. I’m considering rectifying that with a G-Wagen.

I’m considering 2003 G500s to 2014 G63s. I know that that is quite a spectrum, hence the reason I’m asking for your help. I figure my use case and proclivities will help you help me (and a big thanks in advance!).

I’m looking for a daily to replace my 2020 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon that I sold in the used car craziness of 2021. I ended up profiting $5K on a Wrangler that I had for 18 months and drove 10K+ miles. I really, truly loved that vehicle (my 2nd Wrangler). It was our family’s weekend vehicle for Colorado exploration; camping, hiking cold
