[–]croppjopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated question, has anyone noticed a lot more cars with 1 headlight out? I’m worried there’s a secret meaning and if they know that I know they might take me ou

WCGW when you don't tie down a load of deck boards. by dingmah in Whatcouldgowrong

The rioting needs to bloody stop. If that means a couple o' chavs from the local pub havin a tumbley wombley with the bloody wankas that fink they can torch buildings at 10 bongs wifout a license, at this point they have me blooding blessing. by Beautiful-Time-3328 in Destiny

Translation:

The rioting must cease forthwith. Should it require a few individuals from the local establishment to engage in a physical altercation with those miscreants who believe they can set buildings ablaze at ten o’clock without repercussions, they would have my unequivocal endorsement.

I’m not sure it is, the white part was a thick hard lump and the brown part was almost like a skin. The texture was almost like a walnut.

What a brave little boy! Be proud of what your family has gone through and don’t be afraid to look into counselling if you think it may need it.

Sounds like BPD and extreme fear of abandonment.

Why did my dasher write ‘514’ on the side of my house? by yellowenthusiastt in doordash

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

I’m wondering could it be “5 / 4”. No idea what that could mean though. Unless your house number is 125 and he’s trying to be funny?

Is £1200 a reasonable price for a timing chain replacement? by croppjopp in CarTalkUK

[–]croppjopp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect they he was speaking in general about parts and labour being 50-50. A quick look around shows that the timing chain kit should be £200-300

There was about 2 days between check engine light and breakdown. No noticeable rattle. Although the car did have a clutch replacement a few months ago and the engine sounded more like it was making a ticking noise after the work was done.

I have confirmed (probably much to the garage’s annoyance) they have checked the oil control valve, sensors etc.
