Re: Ringing noise

Only thing I had was what I thought was wheel bearing rumble.

After changing front 3 times, from cheapo ebay to genuine, no results.

Stopped using Good Year Eagle GSD 3's and noise stopped.

I know its not the same but put it here for future reference.

Re: Audi A6 Avant Questions

That engine fitted with that gearbox, you need to have very deep pockets. Saying that, if it has manaaged to survive the scrapper this long it might be immune and you might be lucky.... But you'd still need very deep pockets for the very many just in cases that it could throw at you. Thanks. Probab...

Audi A6 Avant Questions

How bad are the Audi CVT gearboxes?

And.......

2.5 V6 fuel pump and cams, just how bad to do and costs?

I'm looking for a bit more in depth info.

I assume the pump is old style diesel pump?

Re: Anyone good with Microamps Milliamps etc?

Thanks Karl.
I know. But max single cell is around 3500mah,want the capacity to fully charge.

Other than that it's individual boards for charge and boost to 5 volt.
Then it get to big and messy.

Re: Anyone good with Microamps Milliamps etc?

Thanks Karl.

It's 2 18650 li-ions in parallel in a small power bank.

Thing I did not take into account was you should not discharge them past 2.5 volts.

I could put a small switch in there to turn it off.

Anyone good with Microamps Milliamps etc?

So here goes.
Got a 4000 milliamp hour battery, with a constant 6 microamp drain on said battery.

How long before 4000 milliamp hour battery is dead.

If it makes any difference it is a 3.7 volt Li-ion battery.
