We have free healthcare and it's awesome. There's a lot of criticism that the waiting line is long and doctors are having paid side practices which takes their focus off their "real job". Yes, I have used paid medicare more than once when I had needed it urgently. For most cases the free version is good enough. For specific cancer treatments that is not covered free you need to remortgage your house or worse, but there's a well functioning support foundation that organizes fundraisers (in newspapers and TV) for expensive cancer treatments and if you seem like a nice person people will pile up the money in a few days. It's a feelgood thing, to see an article published that someone is now 100% cancer free and will have a long and beautiful life ahead thanks to the donations. Especially in case of treated children.

Harvested organs.

Being poor is not "in" anymore.

"his" Be up to date with the trends.

That's some deep freezing application.

Loose fit is intentional. You should be able to rotate it comfortably.

In real life (my personal, anecdotal evidence) none of them accelerate even when you really want to

As a long time multiple Toyota owner I followed the process close-up. It was a party for lawyers, not so much for engineers. NASA computer scientists were commissioned to analyze Toyota ECU software. They went through 20M lines of code and simulated every possible condition the car could get into and concluded that there was zero chance (in statistical terms, no chance at all, ever, impossible scenario) of unattended acceleration without the driver’s primary input. There was a case with a Tundra where a third party floor mat jammed the accelerator and this was also thrown at the case. The only place apart from the original location (US) the Prius acceleration happened was one case in Norway. As it happened nowhere else this was considered to be part of the collective psychosis (for the lesser part) and opportunistic fraud (for the most part) most of the acceleration cases were.

Oh snap. But the aircon in this van is crap anyway. The cabin in my Toyota wagon gets ice cold in one minute. In the Connect - never.

Audi sedans are rare over here. Most new ones are wagons.

I have a 12V socket in my LWB Connect. It’s on top of the right side rear interior panel. Check it out, perhaps there’s a loom already there.

It’s because the Gen1 was based on Focus, which was way too weak for a heavier van. The new one is based on S-Max, which is a mid-size minivan and suits it much better.

I have a couple of these collapsible boxes always in the car: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Taizhou-Plastic-Foldable-Box-Crate-Container_60210407644.html

How’s the cam belt? (if equipped)

Volvo vheels are usually close enough match (+/-10 mm offset). Make sure the center bore matches and if bigger, get an adjustment ring. Can’t go smaller but that’s probably not the case. Then pick the nuts according to the wheel (conical or flat). The ones with a washer are better for the wheel.

Traction control and tire pressure warning is probably caused by a bad ABS sensor.

Here we go again.

Been driving a windowless van since 2006 and have zero issues with rear visibility. Not sure what kind of mirrors you have but the large two section ones are really handy.

When mine runs out of LPG it automatically switches to gasoline.

Yes, but this forum goes haywire at least once a week for sanity maintenance reasons, sorry it had to be your thread ?

CNG is quite rare over here but more and more cars are popping up, especially taxi fleets with VW factory CNG setup. So the stations should follow the demand soon. There’s one next to my office and there’s always a waiting line of taxis there. LPG is available at every other station.

I was talking about the fuel source for electric cars. If it continues to be produced from oil shale or subsidies then we have not done anything right.

Of course not. Hybrids for transition in local scale or diesels for long haul transportation and full electric when the green infrastructure is available. Dino electricity is a terrile idea.

They're definitely in 1.0 Ecoboosts and 1.5 turbodiesels. Software. See also: Tesla OTA updates.

Yup. Gotta keep an eye on the matter.
