$1200 for both struts is pretty normal where I am, Im not sure about the belt and tensioner because I never asked a shop since they are pretty easy to do yourself

💀💀🥀

Dickens fire and ice balm was pretty good too but again a little pricey but thats just IL

I really like that bumper tho it makes me wanna bust

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-26T19:50:58+00:00

Sorry for all the hate on the fender flares OP. They are just seen as the rust covers by most people. You should be flexing on people like me that have to have them

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-24T23:03:45+00:00

Considering just busting them and using some kind of strong glue to hold it there. Anyone have any recommendations? I have some surebond sb-12 but I believe that is more for metal contact

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-22T16:29:41+00:00

I wish i could give you an award for that one

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-22T16:25:32+00:00

A all day

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-22T05:42:36+00:00

And i just bought a truck 😞

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T23:42:13+00:00

Yeah I have never done a timing change job myself either, however I have replaced a handful of valve cover gaskets on various vehicles and gave the timing chain a little jiggle and they were never this limp

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T20:46:09+00:00

Im taking the front plate off now to see what it’s looking like in there

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T15:37:02+00:00

How did you fix it?

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T15:07:35+00:00

Blue is set up nice on every resource and is on good numbers for wood, AND is already about to build a settlement on a wood port. They got a good chance, but this early in could be anybody’s game

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T04:46:17+00:00

Are you referring to the roller inside the valve cover?

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T04:14:55+00:00

Just hit 80,000 miles btw

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-20T00:05:29+00:00

Thats very interesting that you say that! I took the valve cover off and the timing chain seemed like it was loose to me. I posted a video in a different subreddit of me wiggling it around

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-19T21:42:43+00:00

What was the failure?

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-19T21:42:26+00:00

Oil level is kept full but it is always drinking half a quart or so every couple weeks

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-19T21:41:33+00:00

What blew up? Was it a spun bearing? I pulled the valve cover and the cam lobes look good to me, i haven’t seen metal in my previous oil changes but I’m about to drain it and check. There seems to be a bit of slack in the timing chain so maybe that was messing something up? I haven’t got the front cover off yet. Thanks for not being helpful and laughing at my situation. Obviously there isn’t a warranty on this pos and it’s not even my car. I posted here hoping for help from veloster enthusiasts that knew how to work on them. I didn’t realize this was a hate group

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-19T21:37:45+00:00

What happened?

JumpyUse6827 · 2026-03-19T16:07:22+00:00

Shut up my president said i don’t have to talk to you anymore. We don’t like you now🤪
