That 2.5 and the ecoboost 2.0/2.3 are (derived from) the Mazda L engine family.

tangentially, would one of these "work" in a non-BMW? how much (if any) functionality relies on BMW kCAN?

No, The company reached out after the earlier rejection. The recruiter emailed me in the morning and later called me.

On Tuesday, I emailed to follow up on the call/conversation since I hadn't heard anything further/received a written offer as it was indicated I would.

I'm the one being ghosted here, essentially.

probably did it for the love of the game, honestly

the f40 bolts right up? I thought the FWD/60 degree bell was different than the normal SBC/LS (outside of the LS4 which has the 60 deg pattern for sure) - you running an adapter plate of some kind? or is this an LS3 with a LS4 block?

I reached out to the previous Dev to see what I was getting myself into because the client mentioned they had litigation. I think Im gonna pass

thats a good idea actually. I was considering just moving the CMS it has up to PHP 8, but migrating to WordPress might be easiest.

I'm in the US. Medium to Low COL area.

I just didnt want to low ball myself.

I'd prefer moving it to PHP 8 - would have to contend with null coalescing a bunch of variables.

I'm open to suggestion. what would you say? like 1k? i havent freelanced in about 10 years so..

Ok I can handle another month fingers crossed

*cries in 8YOE and 5 months of looking*

when did you order? I ordered on Apr 28th at ~11am EST and still no shipping date

and just like poetry, it rhymes or something

something Papa Palps would totally do, honestly

CAN3 status is probably printed before I get Serial Monitor in view. but yea nonetheless, not getting the POLL message response from CAN3

I pay $80 a month for 2 lines unlimited thanks to a old Magenta 55+ plan I switched to when one of my parents turned 55. I've gotten the same prompt from them lol

Recently divorced Woman from my past reached back out to me, We hang out, I invited her back to my place, we fall asleep, and at 6am (what I thought was) her alarm kept going off. She leaves abruptly. I get a knock at the door at like 615 - thought it was her - was her husband crying and blubbering instead.

Apparently:

1. was find my iphone, not an alarm.
2. separated, not divorced.
3. I was her revenge for him cheating on her multiple times - except I didnt even get laid that night.

i have a 2022 Premium. purchased May 2022 with 12 miles. now has ~66k.

- havent had any issues (knock on wood!) besides a weird high pitched noise from the rear axle that was resolved by the dealer at the first oil change (they explained it was the brake pads dragging against the rotor).

can confirm. I have a 22 limited. I just bought a cheap dongle offline. works /fine/

yes.

bolt in? not exactly. cowl/firewall needs to be trimmed, no getting away from that.

currently at ~6000 USD but this includes a bunch of future nice to haves (i.e Nissan CD009 in case the Rx8 trans doesnt last) and things I ended up not using.

The module in front of the battery is the ECM.

I never found where it actually broke at, hence my "fix" up above. I got tired of the wire sheathing disintegrating everywhere. My guess is it was a loose solder joint

The TCM is built into the valve body of the trans. The connector I modded snakes down below to the front of the trans (left hand side) and plugs in (there's a retaining clip you pull away from the connector a bit, if I recall), just below the the trans fluid fill Cap.

Are there instructions somewhere or did you do it by feel?

how hard is it to remove the front/grille area? mine has a crack in it as well on the lower right (due to a wayward highway sign)

did you replace the grille out of pocket or was it warrantied? my grille and the lower bumper started peeling a year or so in and the local dealer swore it couldnt be warrantied.
