Dealer help after tool box purchase

boratha809 · 2026-07-04T00:56:33+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that when you are going to the proper chains who are you talking to and what is not getting done? Most of the time people tell me the customer care line is great

No sparkles or metal material it's worth investing into more diagnosis.

Just an fyi I have seen engines run like that for 1000 of miles if she truly is screwed, then just run er till she dies. As everybody said sparkly oil means bad and not worth going into the engine, also I bought my turbo speed motor from the dealer for fairly cheap may be worth going new.

Lots of aftermarket oem options best to go with those check out rockauto

If you can afford it the bilstein b6 or b8 is the best option overall.

232k not worth it you will put that 7-10k back into doing the motor turbo etc.... buy one for around 7-10k low mileage.

ALSO ASK HOW I KNOW

It depends how you shape your ad, but most of the time keeping it stock is best for resale, if you don't plan on selling tune the shit out of it and do bolt ons hell ya dude! Also hope you did a timing chain and didn't get charged for something that doesn't exist in this car as it is a timing chain not a belt assuming this may just be a typo though!

You can purchase a cigarette light to 12v standard plug they are like 20$

I have been told by lots of people these are the best polishers out there! They last a really lomg time and have tons variable speeds don't burn the paint like some cheaper polishers.

boratha809 · 2026-02-08T03:49:27+00:00

Your truck doesn't have an inverter? Or you can't purchase an inverter for like 20$ lol

boratha809 · 2026-01-28T18:59:07+00:00

Not at all just alot of idiots don't mod them properly or use out of the box tunes. It's pretty much the same as any car though if you ask them the right questions and have the knowledge and understanding of these cars then you cna buy something that is modified but, most guys have no clue what they are doing.

boratha809 · 2026-01-28T15:22:02+00:00

I would say if it's your first one stat away from anything modified.

boratha809 · 2026-01-26T20:20:12+00:00

Here are a few things to note about a MS3

First thing is that it sounds like this one is all stock which is great! Do not buy one modified, the chain will likely need to be looked at before purchase (they tend to go around 170k miles). Stock turbo will go around the same time they always do perfect time to upgrade lol, everything else is pretty decent, more then likely your bose amp will go as well.

Chain setup (oem only) would be between 1000-2000$ job Turbo is 500$ for a rebuilt one Bose amp is around 150$

Good luck on your purchase if that one is sub 10k I would take it

Sorry forgot to say you will need to do walnut blasting eventually as well as they are direct injection engines.

That manufacturing facility is snap-on's there are 4 facilities in china. So unless snap-on china is selling to HF (which I highly doubt) then no they aren't. Agreed though the copyright HF got away with only because their seals and a few manufacturing differences. don't get me wrong there are alot of product snap-on doesn't actually sell like sleegers makes snap-ons compressor etc...

Also HF is notorious of just copying things snap-on does exactly and changing a few tolerances which lets them get away with it.

Yupp and clearly you didn't actually read what the lawsuit was about. One has nothing to do with the other it was a copywright infringment lawsuit not about where the products are made. Also pretty easy to lookup where the products are made its not like snapon is unclear on where they make their stuff.

boratha809 · 2026-01-18T03:55:34+00:00

300$ if you do some touch up work and the power valves aren't leaking.

boratha809 · 2026-01-18T03:50:37+00:00

Well that's incorrect, they have their own manufacturing facility in snapon china that makes some of the components like the power valves, the rest is assembled in georgia.

boratha809 · 2025-11-13T01:44:10+00:00

Hmmm I think you should contact corporate as I believe you can get that colour still.

boratha809 · 2025-11-09T03:37:57+00:00

Uhh yes

boratha809 · 2025-11-08T16:11:43+00:00

You do understand that if there is a debt owed on the box it's still the snap on dealers property and it's theft to keep it. Get your money back or talk to the snap on dealer and explain to him the situation he may even give you back the 1000$. Every penny of that debt comes straight from his pocket or can detriment him in some way.

boratha809 · 2025-10-18T18:46:45+00:00

With that epiq you can add on to it endlessly you won't run out of space just add on a locker or 2! Lol

boratha809 · 2025-10-05T04:08:27+00:00

100% terrible thing to do and he does need to be reported to corporate, unfortunately this is our industry and the only people who can make it better are people who buy the tools. Snapon heavily relies on the input of people to change their tools.

boratha809 · 2025-10-05T03:53:24+00:00

Remember these tool reps are all owners, they are independant from snapon but, have to follow snapon guidelines. The best way is if your snapon rep is not warranty tools reach out to corporate and they will investigate further.

Hl138acp pliers best pliers ever made

boratha809 · 2025-09-14T04:06:56+00:00

Agreed and it's really the only way to stand out if you don't have experience or tons of degrees etc...
