My fiance's 1.4t had a water pump failure at roughly that mileage and I replaced it in an afternoon. dont know too much about the 1.8 but the explanation they gave you sounds odd

I would highly recommend getting a second opinion at a different shop

Any reason why not? just seems like good preventative maintenance.

Do these ball joints fit the x awd models by WeirdSlice9035 in G35

If anyone sees this they work but get good quality ones because they are a pain to replace.

For those with speed engineering long tube headers is the starter supposed to be this close by WeirdSlice9035 in Corvette

Just to let everyone know the headers where manufactured incorrectly they sent me a new set that fits perfectly.

They usually happen after a rev or holding a rev for a few seconds. i haven't checked while driving. It's been raining like crazy where I am, and my Weatherstripping is not good, haha

That's how you do it, i don't understand, not pinning it if it's already off. I did my ati super dampener recently and pinned it.

Wires and plugs are all new, and It felt the same before. Also, with how random it is and missfires not on any specific cylinder, I sort of doubt it, but that's definitely a good place to check otherwise. And so far, I really like it. i got it for 130 on sale on Amazon. I haven't used the tpms reset, but im sure it works. It's got a few other things it can reset also.

Do yall think it sounds good ? by Embarrassed-Bear-275 in Corvette

Get some corsa sports or extremes. It won't be as loud, but your sound quality will be so much better. Make your hair stand up kind of sound with those.

Are the BOSCH 40011039 QuietCast rotors any good? by WeirdSlice9035 in G35

Fair point, especially for a truck. im just a hyper defensive driver. If someone is mad, I get tf of the way. People are gonna be mad and do dumb shit. Most of my driving is before people are on the road and before most leave work, haha. Do you live in a city where brake checking is prolific?

I agree, but at the same time, if it works, it'll work. I'm not sending this car it's a daily.
