It could leave you on the side of the road trying to change your diffs on a car that you need, so I feel it is quite relevant.
Not that you ever did start having any technical discussion.

Although this is fun I am seriously considering switching off notification to this thread as I seriously have better things to do than cross swords, or handbags, with this guy with a massive ego problem.
Keep on trucking with it peeps as I will...
So one out of three was actually an SUV?
Well done!
and of course the BMW you mentioned is exactly like a RR, same weight, 4 wheel drive etc etc.
Yep your apples still do look much like oranges to me.
So you "got me" on the Mercedes M class...
Clearly you are rather over sensitive to anything contrary to what you think you know. Most of the comments early in this thread were why it might not be a good idea. You took them as direct critisim rather than answer in a technical manner...
The rest of that thread went extremely like the one on here!!!!
But the other one that did it and said it was fine was NOT doing it to RRs!!!

So this is the person that knew a person:

So you've suddenly found 3 more cases of this?

Really?
Now that may be difficult soon I think.
I am on here and continued to try and help on 2 of your threads :vb-confused2:.
Yes you were.
I think it could have gone another way if you had spoke sence, and answered questions sensibly...
Well then....
I was trying to iron out some of the problems you may face when/if you do this change, to maybe help. And thats the thanks I get.
No you havent had 100% confirmation it can be done.
It has be voiced on here that it could possibly...
I knew it was only a matter of time before someone said summat like this, although @Avocet1 ran me a close second and I have since relearned what I learned as a rep.
"after the first 10 seconds of you talking they will mentally switch off"
10...
I tried to help to just to close it out around 10 pages back. I think we just need to drop it now, every post gets another essay as to why we're being laughed at.
I'm ok with being laughed at.
(There is just a tiny little bit of a touch of Trumpery about all this now. )
And if I wasn't sure before, I am dead sure now.
It's a cr@p idea.
The fact that so few people have done it proves it. (So far one person that knew one other person...
only 1 person? wrong i read at least 2.
Now as much as you may think I might be doom and gloom I dont see my comments that way.
Now as for technical stuff which I know you hate to talk about, and I do like to research interesting stuff. I class...
