Dave is of course right. Credit cards are not RFID. That chip requires it to be read with direct contact. Some cards have a chip that you can wave over a terminal a few inches away. Even those are not true RFID chips.

Great, will be confident that my tin foil lined hat and underwear will continue to protect me.
Hope they can't wirelessly hack my phone either. Don't auto join any networks besides my home and usually have bluetooth turned off. It does have applepay, have yet to use it. Guess I could keep the phone under my hat or in my underwear until I wanted to make a call.

Oh great. Found a thin leather card wallet I like (don't carry cash) and they have an iPhone case that would also work as a card wallet for me. Guess a big negative for the iPhone case is that it would not fit if the company got me a new 7. Also not really fond of phone cases with a flap to cover the screen and the one without the flap lets the card stick out so you can grab it, which I also don't like which is why I get a card wallet instead of a card sleeve.
Used a sleeve for a while and hated how the edges of the cards were exposed and got messed up. That is why I really liked my now defunct card wallet. No bill slot (unless you fold them), and not much bigger than a card.

Actually feeling pretty much normal today. I got the other neighbor's yard done and did the front portion of the Inlaw's place today. Tomorrow will be just cruisin' on the Zero turn apparatus to cut the big section behind the pole barn.

Hey hey.
I've been thinking about your 911 issue Glen but I haven't come up with anything that you haven't tried.

I am ready to throw more parts at it. It is obvious it is a heat issue and everything tests out perfect when it is cold enough to touch. Once it get up to full operational temp, something is flaking out. I will try new flywheel sensors and head temperature sensor. I already have an spare brand new O2 sensor and fuel pump. I may put those on as well.
It is just a challenge to find the cure to an intermittent issue. When it is failing it is too dang hot to test.

shhhhh...maybe they won't notice it's Monday.
Greetings just anyway. I'm betting it is something that got disturbed when you first did the cruise control fix. That's when it started. About 2 years into Boxster S ownership it started taking 2 twists of the key to start it in the mornings. Still under warrantee took it in and that issue was fixed by replacing the MAF. When I got it back It started backfiring on deceleration. Violently enough that it blew out the weld in the cats. Kept taking it back for that issue telling them it started when they replaced the MAF. They kept trying different things for a year! Even replacing the MAF to no avail. They even did a chemical wash of the intake to de-carbon. However they didn't replace the oil after doing the chemical wash and 2 weeks later it spun a rod bearing and they replaced the Motor. Replacing the motor didn't even fix the problem. Took it back in for the 3rd blown out cat and the tech at Stuttgart that had been working my case was on vacation and his supervisor looked over the problem. He had them check the MAF part number against the ECU serial number. They made two different MAFs that year and you had to use the ECU serial number to get the correct MAF. Getting the correct MAF fixed it! When they replaced the MAF the parts department had originally ordered the wrong one. When they tested it the MAF tested good. When they replaced the wrong MA they replaced the MAF they took off the car so the replaced it with the same wrong MAF. If they had done that the first time they would have gotten the correct MAF. When they replaced the motor the MAF was one of the few parts that was not replaced. Kept telling the service advisor, the service tech, AND the factory tech the problem started when they first replaced the MAF and they said I didn't know what I was talking about. Yet, them putting on the wrong MAF was the problem that took them over a year, and a compete engine replacement before they found it.

Richard, the cruise control parts I worked on are in the front of the car, far away from any engine components.
The cruise quit on my raod trip and the ultimate cause of that was a broken cable on the engine, but I never touched that until Saturday and it is fixed and working better than ever before. The running issue happened before I ever did anything to the cruise in the engine compartment. Like many systems on the 911, the cruise control was an add on system that was never part of the original design of the car. The box in the front just gets the speed from the sensor on the transmission split from the signal to the speedometer. The stalk next to the wiper switch set the cruise and the vacuum module in the engine compartment sets the bowden cable to a fixed throttle and the speed sensor will add or reduce the throttle as needed for hills. I had a running issue like this once before right after an autocross. That was when the original coil finally gave up. I replaced it and all was good until recently. After three different coils, I still have the heat related running issue. I do know that the head temp sensor will cause similar issues and that is next to replace. I have one at home already. I was just sure it was the DME itself especially when Steve Wong found some issues. At least I know it is not the issue now.

Sorry, just remember you did something with the cruise that didn't fix it then the hot dead thing started at that time.

Yea, the trials and tribulations is complex at this point!
 The cruise control computer was not really the issue. It did ave the typical problems of the bad capacitors that caused it to slowly lose speed. It has done that for years and hopefully that is fixed. It is unrelated to my poltergeist. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/928919-3-2-carrera-poltergeist.html I will whoop, it good (eventually) and it may whoop my bank account as final revenge.

Wooohooo. 928 is back from the muffler shop with the custom x-pipe. Bad news. One of the main mechanic's father died this weekend. They will be short all week.
Question: Would you buy my Cayenne S for a daughter her first year in College, 1,100 miles from home?
