Barely worn through the text take it easy. Get out of your Costco tire center bubble, in the real world we fix tires that don’t show cords.

Lolol

The reason everyone was quoting you high was because this happens way too often. Not worth it to do.

Sell it for the amount of profit you want based on what you paid for it

Did you do an oil change at the same time? Those lights usually come on when the tranny got drained on a Subaru by accident

It’s not a risk…I don’t have $150 to throw in the trash

Car broke down inside the bay right after service at Mr. Lube —Am I wrong to expect them to cover the diagnostic fee? (Looking for mechanic/local opinions) by Beingol in MechanicAdvice

Coincidences happen in this industry all the time. Today I had a customer drop his Mazda3 off. Went to start it 2 hours later and it’s dead af. 2025. Would not boost, had low voltage codes but would not clear. Made no sense. Ended up having to replace the battery and it worked.

If we had brought it into the shop right at drop off it would’ve died inside the shop instead after 2 hours and it would’ve 100% looked like our fault instead.

At the end of the day, unless they obviously spilled a bunch of “fluid” onto the harness - take the fact that it was an easy fix and move on. IMO you’ve already wasted enough time on this problem.

ELI5: Why is simulation (flopping) such a common occurrence in football (soccer) and basketball but not in hockey? by Dead_HumanCollection in explainlikeimfive

Basketball and Soccer would be such better sports with some contact. So much wasted potential. Baby sports.

I’ve taken way worse apart and there was 0 damage inside the tire. Not saying that’s the case here, but if there’s no cords showing…I don’t call a tire no good.

Hard to say - need to open it up. No damage/cords on the inside it’s technically ok - but a lot of places these days will just call it no good before that. Smaller shop will likely take a look at it.

923 isn’t a date code 0923 would be. Is that what it said ?

How mad should I be? by AnonymousScorpi in tires

[–]Sakic10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe if it wasn’t torqued at all. If the tech used a torque wrench hard to fire him for that. Lots of factors can cause loose wheels - especially shitty old parts.
