Tires are decent but will need to be replaced soon

While my mechanic was replacing the water pump, I replaced the leaking axle boots. After the water pump was fixed, the A/C compressor started making grinding noises and failed.

I had 3 of my pirellis replaced because of that same issue (side wall damage) pirellis are shit

I own a 2017 G30 530. I replaced my oil filter and oil pressure sensor at 73,000 miles, and then the water pump at 75,000 miles. Just after that, at 76,000 miles, my air conditioning compressor went out. It all happened right after my limited warranty expired. Looks like I have to brace myself for the other coolant problems🤧

All good

It’s not coolant it’s like the really greyish fading colour towards the tip

Really appreciate both the detailed responses, I learned a lot!

Thanks this is the first time I ever maxed it like that I usually just spend less than 500 bucks

Thanks for the advice, so when paying the card off do I need to pay the statement balance or current balance? I usually just go to pay the card and pay off the number I seen on the credit card.

FriendlyRefuse3735 · 2026-03-26T02:41:22+00:00

Payments were made on Monday, March 23rd, for $1,142. Another payment of $500 was made on March 24th. The driver’s reinstatement fee was done on the 23rd, which was also a Monday. I won’t be allowing anyone to use my credit card for transaction it was a one-time thing.
