^You need to keep rolling diameters of the front and rear wheels/tires within 1% if you run a staggered setup....on an AWD system.

OP this is most confusing post for those who don't know what the questions are....just as pointless as someone posting a question that's already been asked.

It's fuse 20 for N52s.

I am tired of all the same questions being asked over and over and over. Just thought I'd put the answers all in one place. Just wish someone would search first. 95% of all the new threads are questions or topics that have been covered 1000 times.

its a forum people ask questions and people answer questions. if you dont like reading and answering questions i suggest you dont use forums. its not a crime for someone who's new to the forums to ask a noob question that has been covered before.

agreed, it can get kinda annoying but i can say more times then not if you see a thread someone is starting that has been covered before its usually someone new to the forums and hasnt figured out how to search prperly. believe it or not that was you awhile ago to. you can chose to help out noobs or ignore them thats your call. just remember how people treated you when you were new here and the people that were nice probably were saying to themselves this question has already been answered. i cant say for certain you asked questions that have been answered before but i cant tell you for certain i have, and i have gotten my fair share of people saying and i have gotten people that have taken the time to help me out. i now search a lot harder before posting a question but at the end of the day it is a forum and the definition of a forum is a place for people to ask and answer questions. im not in any way trying to argue with you, im just simply saying help out noobs or ignore them its your call.

I thought there was no such thing as a stupid question. Everyone has to start somewhere before they think they know everything. (IE: know-it-all)

I think, sometimes, these questions also offer newer members a way of "introducing" themselves.

If you want to be helpful, why not give a little info beside each point you have listed here.

I know what your talking about, but this post unfortunately isn't helping anything.

LOL at this thread. That was classic, but a bit douchey at the same time.
