Im at the shop right now, your story seems more plausible too, they are saying the tpms was loose which could be why it never went off to warn me of a flat tire, they were the ones who installed the tpms and its a full oem set. At least they are owning up to their mistakes, for now. I didn't notice until it was too late, driving on gas town roads is hard to feel any flat tire issues on the rear.

Update: they installed the tpms wrong and it go damaged, turns out there is supposed to be a plastic washer and then a metal cover over tpms and it was just metal to metal which caused to come loose from vibration, fixed it and checked all other wheels and made sure no more leaks. Only the inside lip had light scuffing, took a brush to it and its smooth with no visible narkings anymore. Phew.
Anyway, at least i didn't get a VI lol

Perfect. Good to hear.

I work in North Van and I would say 2-3 days of a week in the morning, I would see 2 cops parked on this grass area with cars pulled over, today was also one of those days:

Kind of hard for him to do if he's VPD and Canada Way and Willingdon is Burnaby which is patrolled by RCMP

Just saw them On Queens at new west near japanoid stopping the cars, does not look for any violation as is there is nothing you can break. Very strange place to do it.

Is it actually "Cain" and the VI Blitz crew? I also heard it was just a bunch of cops checking for cellphone usage, and that they are there on a regular basis.

Ok, i'm driving on Canda Way and Wilington every day. From my observation there cops looking for cells, belts and last second yellow/red light runners. Had never saw something extraordinary there

Thats my daily route to work.

I have seen cops on the grass for many months.
They pull over cars that turns right from Main st to Seymour Blvd illegally.

You suppose to go straight, if you passed the right turn HWY merge.
But if traffic is backed up to Riverside dr, then Main st. goes on Trans Canada HWY usually will take 15-20 mins to get on it. Or longer.
If you take that illegal turn, it only needs 2-3 mins.

In the morning, people do that illegal turn all the time.
When i see those people get pulled over, it felt so fxxking satisfied!!!

Somethings going on, on Canada Way near Burnaby Central.
They're out in the 10's, just saw some guy get pulled over for having highbeams on and a few others lined up

edit: Hastings/Slocan also...

Badhobz 10-17-2018 04:55 PM

I’m staying the fuck outta Vancouver. No thanks, 1 is enough

GS8 10-17-2018 05:06 PM

yray 10-17-2018 06:19 PM

My car is one of those VI target for sure...

When i see cops around, i push my air suspension to highest setting.
This setting gives 3 finger gap. It looks very awkward :lawl:

BIC_BAWS 10-17-2018 06:53 PM

Not sure. Just got it in my group chats and wanted to relay the info. There's always cops at BCIT on Canada way doing cell phone checks tho.

Drove down to main & e 49 at around 7:15. I was surprised to see no cops and the amount of modified cars that were rolling through. I still took the Civic tho - maybe that's why I didn't see the Moto cops.

We've been trying to make a meet for awhile. Two years later, still hasn't happened.

what sucks is I don't have air or dynamic suspension... I have the factory passive M sport suspension, which rides an inch lower than all the other normal xdrive 4 series BMWs on the road... but if I get pulled over in this 100% stock car, I will flip. :rukidding:

radioman 10-17-2018 09:12 PM

Anyone here? Kingsway and Slocan. Glad my bone stock Porsche didn't get VI'd.


SpeedStars 10-17-2018 09:38 PM

What is that? Looks like a white s15 :okay:

JSALES 10-17-2018 09:45 PM

It is a white S15, just saw it on Instagram
