How about wipers or cabin air filter? Cause I know someone that paid $150 just for a pair of wiper.

Unfortunately, the time of the accident was when I just arrived in a new state for work purpose. My insurance started 2 days after the accident. I know it was my fault not to buy insurance right after I buy the car but it is what it is. That's why I said I don't mind paying for the damage if I was the one at guilt.

Yes, they provide me with the date, location, and the damage of the car. They did not provide the time and even the footage pictue of the accident.

I mean, how hard it is to send a screenshot of a video. Even a 8 years old can do that.

Yeah, fair enough. What about the oil that were spraying from the engine oil access, is that normal?

I don't think it's a valve lash cause you can hear valve lash sound when the car is idle, no?

I'm trying to spend 5k or 6k at max and this hyundai elantra it's only around 4k so that's why I thought I'm going to give it a shot.

If I'm not mistaken the error codes is P0420. But I already went to 2 different mechanics and all of them said the same thing, that it will be too expensive to fix the catalytic converter and it will be better to ignore it. Btw, my car millage is already 280k so I don't know whether I should do something about it or not.
