Don’t Replace Full PADM Assembly for Porsche PADM Faults – Lumistag Type A & B Sensors Offer Targeted Repair
Many Porsche 911 and 718 owners encounter illuminated PADM warning lights, disabled suspension systems and recurring fault codes 001013 & 001023. Most repair shops recommend replacing the entire PADM assembly at a steep cost. The root cause lies in factory sensors whose internal chips are secured only by adhesive; prolonged vibration and high engine heat peel off the glue, damaging chips and distorting signal data to trigger system errors. Lumistag. supplies upgraded PADM sensors split into two vehicle-specific variants: Type A fits all 911 & 718 models (981,982,991 chassis); Type B exclusively suits 982-platform 718 including 2.0T/2.5T Base and T trim levels. Abandoning the original glue-fixed design, these sensors adopt mechanically locked chips alongside CNC one-piece aluminum housing for superior heat and impact resistance. Pre-calibrated to OEM specs at factory, they feature plug-and-play installation with no extra coding needed. Replacing only the faulty single sensor clears error alerts and restores normal suspension function, cutting huge expenses from full assembly replacement. https://lumistag.com/ -

Welcome to the iCar as Jony Ives was the designer and lead during production. He could not get his iCar produced at Apple and so he got Ferrari to do it in an overpriced way. Ugly as heck, but hopefully the experience of actually driving it is better than the look. @surreal1272 @ccap41 Ferrari should have released the auto as a Concept to get feedback from the public as this iCar is a styling failure. They could have take the Jaguar XJ220 and put in an electric powertrain and been far more successful than this iCar release they did without all the negativity it has generated. Does Ferrari need to go electric? YES Is this the right auto for them? NO Is the software and driving dynamic worthy of a Ferrari? Unknown -

ITA does not have a 747. This is just a mock up if they did. That's a good looking bird. Alitalia had eight 747s and pulled them shortly after 9/11 because of the drop in air traffic and to cut costs. ITA uses the newer A350 and the updated A330-900neo for long haul flights. I have only flown on them domestically and was real excited to learn that they have added a seasonal Rome to Houston nonstop. This is all because they have joined Star Alliance as a function of being picked up by Lufthansa. -

When cars had personality ... ... 1978 Cadillac Couple de Ville A lady I knew - Velma - when I was a teenager had one of these with a Cerise Firemist Metallic exterior - sort of a light grapefruit color popular in those years. She knew I loved her car. -

That's a fair point. Even if it isn't "the same", it is certainly far too similar.- 2

That is certainly your opinion but I stand by it. That thing is hideous and just looking at the profile of the two, the $650K Ferrari looks way too similar to a $40K Toyota. That is not a Ferrari. That is a $650K bar of soap with wheels. You are right about the rest of it though. Just a whole lot of “meh” for that kind of coin. If it had a different logo attached to it, then it might look okay. However, if no one told us this was a Ferrari, we would never have guessed it was. That is my point here. Nothing about it says Ferrari and it looks very stale and boring for the price point.- 1

Ford News: Ford F-150 Lightning Goes EREV with 700+ Mile Range and Locomotive-Like Towing
Oh that is just plain silly that they'd have the same vehicle but some trims do and do not have CarPlay. I'm also in the same boat in not wanting a base model of pretty much anything. I dig the Lyriq (even though the name is horrible), but they're too pricey around me still. The cheaper ones are 40-42k and I just can't justify spending that.- Electric Truck
