Don't want to be a bitch, but I basically told you exactly what to do.
I've also "tested" this plenty of times.

Thank you PRJ.

Bah, don't be such a drama queen Tongue

What did you expect? You get upset no matter what happens.

People do research on their own after you tell them to screw off, then when they follow up on it (on their own, just like you ask), you bitch and moan about not getting thanks?

I've yet to see you genuinely happy about anything.

Me telling you exactly the page to look at, and you looking at the page and seeing the answer is "research" now?

Wow.

Are we going to quibble over semantics now?

How this

"We followed prj's advice, located the offset and appropriate bit, and went looking for verification that the location was correct, and that the bit functioned as expected, then I thanked the person who verified it worked."

Then, at that point, you got mad at *me* thanking the person who verified it and not you? If you had said "yes, that is the right bit and location" before dd did, I would have thanked you. No big deal.

Honestly, I don't get it. It's ridiculous we are even discussing this. It's beyond infantile.

Again, is there anything that makes you happy?

People who don't need spoon-feeding for trivial things make me happy.

Tongue

It's also something about you positioning yourself as "veteran", and then being too lazy to go through 1 page of FR, when pointed right to it...
And that's all it is - lazy. You don't need to know any German whatsoever to figure that page out. In fact when you asked the second time I just copy pasted that page into Google Translate to see how well it copes, and everything could be understood.
So at that point I knew you didn't even bother looking at it.

I am not positioning myself as anything.

My first involvement was here:

http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=3276.msg33126#msg33126

And as, you said, it was trivial to find, so it astounds me that you are mad that you didn't receive "thanks"

Honestly, you are unstable.

Yes. As I said, my initial guess after looking at the FR. It was trivial, as you suggested it would be.

You seem very agitated over this.

Doesn't change the fact that you were begging to be spoon fed before looking at the FR, for what WAS actually trivial.
If I thought you are not capable of looking this up, I would have described it better than "look at this in FR". No point for me copy pasting the FR, is there?

I made one post: the "German" crack. And it was obviously (I thought) a joke. That was literally the only post I made between my reading your advice and my posting the results of heeding your advice. You've got some very strange narrative built up inside your head that bears no semblance to reality. You seem to spend most of your time deciding if somebody is begging you for something or not.

Except it took you six days.

Err. Yes. I have other things I'm working on, including a full time job (which isn't car related), and things to do on weekends (that aren't car related). In fact, I don't even care about that particular cluster/CAN issue - it doesn't affect me or any of the cars I am currently working on. I was just trying to be helpful. Heck, if you'll notice, it took several days for dd to get around to verifying if I got it right.

If you were so interested in us saving time, you could have just said "don't bother testing, that is the right bit".

Geez. We're supposed to all be on the same side here. I still don't understand how this is an issue.
