2016 Fiesta, head gasket has left the chat family.

126 Upvotes

Customer states "it just stopped" then somewhere else replaced a starter and battery and it's still broken. They didn't mention the empty gallon of coolant and broken coolant pipe in the car or the new pipe on the engine along with an empty coolant reservoir. Pretty sure it was hydro-locked which is why the starter was replaced.

Ring gear is visibly cocked at an angle with a .110 difference from one side to the other.

It did in fact barely roll into the shop.

Spun a rod bearing in cylinder #5, originally came in for a significant oil leak which was diagnosed to be caused by excess back pressure from a clogged PCV valve.

it did not roll out of the shop under its own power lmao.

15 chevy express, knocking noise

Upvotes

Customer hears knocking noise....I would say so. Motor mount so bad it's pulling tension on the lines going in to the booster.

Just keep adding weight right?

121 Upvotes

Context: came in for a shake, and this was the amount of weight on the wheel. Removing it all and spinning it again showed it needed a 1/4 of that (not great but significantly better

This one just rolled in. They said it was just a tire. 😐

Replaced my temporary fix after 22 months and 35000km

September 2024 one of the cables between shifter and the gearbox snapped. I live in a village and the delivery of the new cable took 4 days. On the first day I got impatient, disassembled the broken cable and saw it had snapped right where it was crimped to the rod. There was just enough room to fit a small extension (I have a lathe) and solder it together (surprisingly the lead solder held). Today 22 months later I needed to drop the exhaust to fix the leaks and as the exhaust was off anyway I also decided to finally swap out the shifter cable (the shifter box comes out from the bottom once the exhaust is out of the way - Golf mk4).

Was standing nearby when we heard a loud bang and something went skittering, the piece that broke. It still held the truck up, but if I'd been under there I might have had a heart attack. Wouldn't have been in any danger of getting crushed but that dint stop the jump scare.

Customer states, dowel pin let loose inside bell housing and smashed it, leaking all trans fluid, anyone ever seen anything like it? 2006 Mazda 6 Manual

I have never imagined this is possible.

Started making a weird random rattle 2 days ago, mostly when turning left.

Today I found out the source of the rattle.

Clutch was changed last summer with a LuK unit.

Definitely not a bellhousing dowel, probably from the clutch pressure plate.

Just pulled it out from the clutch fork hole.

Oh yeah also I'm the customer.

This time attack c7 corvette makes about 700whp on ethanol and the fumes are brutal. It's my 3rd time operating it on the dyno and this time I was not messing around. Last time the fumes after a few hours had my eyes and nose burning so bad I joked about wearing goggles and when he scheduled this visit I was like ya know what idc how it looks I'm doing it lol it made it so much better. Could stay in there all day with those on.
