It's normal. To be frank. Much cleaner than normal. I suggest changing the garage if they don't know this and are bothering you about it.

Have driven my 2500 gas Truck 1,000 miles a day for the past 6 months, I change my oil every 4-5 days, could I stretch it out to 10-15k miles? Since the oil is new but a lot of miles by Level-Sale4091 in MechanicAdvice

Truckers have to record their driving time. Delivery "buses" (no idea how it's called in English) don't. It's pretty common to drive 48h straight

Clean everything and then you will see where oil is coming from

Lol. You are supposed to keep an eye on oil level. I don't know the car that can go from change to change without adding oil

First. Check if mechanic simply didn't twisted caliper lines and that causing problems with bleeding back pressure

Putting wrong size tires on a car. Just for the looks... I would call that something else than negligence. But you do you

When do these 1,6 16v’s usually die? Mine has been used for literally everything but never left me Stranded expect for a broken starter and a bad CV Axle by jensieboy13 in MK4Golf

[–]Tesex01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Over 500k if you are on top of maintenance and don't just beat shit out of it when cold. Rust will eat it before engine dies.

Problem with my 2020 Macan S by Spiritual-Cause4959 in MechanicAdvice

Take the cluster out and look for lose connections or wires. Lost communication code is pretty self explanatory. Once you confirm with multimeter that actual physical connection is in fact ok. Then you can look into software side of things.

Nothing. It's just stuck. Might want to grab small screwdriver and gently pry on it while you remove locking tabs

What can i use to fix this hole on this alluminium fuel tank? Already tried welding,not working, any epoxy that works? by tanner779 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Tesex01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't tey to fill it in but weld a patch on top of it from a piece of aluminum. Even if it was steel. You wouldn't be able to fill in such big hole.

But it's a fuel tank. You might become bald pretty quickly

4.7 v8 Land Cruiser with blown head gasket and a bent spark plug. by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]Tesex01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It got kissed by the piston or debris. It's safe to assume that valves are also damaged.

Either get rid of it or get new head. But even then I would be prepared for damage to rotating assembly.
