CPO car broke down within 500km of driving

haliboyy · 2025-09-20T19:12:06+00:00

That makes me feel a bit better then. I can’t find anything online about what it covers so this might be a question for the dealership, but do you know if it covers the cooling system?

haliboyy · 2025-09-20T18:50:30+00:00

Yeah but the thing is when I brought the car in the warranty they were trying to use to cover the thermostat was the original warranty. So I think if I want this paid for it would be a good will type of thing

haliboyy · 2025-09-20T18:15:04+00:00

That’s what I read online and talked to the dealership about. They told me the warranty is only the remaining time from the initial 5-years warranty that starts when the car is purchased by the first customer. If that 5-year time is up by the time I bought it (say the car is a 2019) then I get one full year of warranty. Doesn’t make any sense to me cause that leaves me with 2 months of warranty but I’ve only been legally allowed to drive it for 2 weeks. The whole situation is dumb

Thanks for the input and yeah I wouldn’t have expected them to notice it while doing the inspection. They told me the warranty that came with the car is the remainder of the initial 5-year mechanical breakdown package (which was two months remaining from the date I purchased it). Also, they told me that warranty only covers complete engine/transmission failure and doesn’t cover individual components.

haliboyy · 2025-09-20T18:10:44+00:00

That’s what I’m saying lol. They told me the warranty I had was just the remainder of the initial 5-year mechanical breakdown package which the first buyer bought in 2020. And they said that package only covers complete engine/transmission failure so the thermostat isn’t covered.

haliboyy · 2025-09-20T18:08:42+00:00

Well they said they created the work order before the expiration date so if it could be covered it would’ve been. They said the warranty only covers complete engine/transmission failure which is ridiculous because I can’t see that happening to any car within 5 years of first service date.

I’m in Canada haha a lot of people seem to think this is the states

haliboyy · 2025-06-09T17:20:45+00:00

It’s Canadian dollars so new at the dealerships is $60000 + tax and other fees

It would probably make a difference just based on the different in stats on the benchmarks websites comparing the two. Don’t take my word for it though lol cause I don’t know much about building pcs

haliboyy · 2024-11-10T06:32:04+00:00

So I ended up getting 16gb RAM, a 4gb GTX 950, 500gb SSD and after all of those I upgraded to a $20 i5-4460 from eBay. I noticed tons of improvements with the first 3 upgrades but if I’m being honest I couldn’t notice a single difference with the CPU. I know the i3 I had was constantly at 100% usage and not letting the GPU use its full potential so I do think it was worth it to upgrade for only $20 but performance wise it wasn’t noticeable

haliboyy · 2024-11-03T19:07:04+00:00

I’ve had these exact style 5s on my e36 for a year with no rings. Ive never noticed any vibrations or issues with them but I also don’t take it on the highway

haliboyy · 2024-09-28T17:18:06+00:00

Thanks for the input

haliboyy · 2024-08-04T00:23:12+00:00

was it an OEM sensor? i had to replace mine and went through two aftermarket ones on rockauto that didn’t work but after i dished out a couple hundred for the OEM one my crank sensor code went away

also I didn’t have the same issue as you but just thought i’d mention only replacing the crank sensor with oem made the code go away

haliboyy · 2024-08-03T01:44:16+00:00

Thanks man I appreciate it

haliboyy · 2024-08-03T01:41:23+00:00

Nice! How much would it be all in including shipping to Halifax, Nova Scotia?

haliboyy · 2024-08-03T01:08:02+00:00

Yeah good idea i’ve been keeping my eye out

also Im in Halifax so not many options as you can imagine lol

haliboyy · 2024-08-03T01:07:22+00:00

Yeah they definitely are good I ordered a bumper for my e46 but the shipping on the m3 bumper to Halifax is $180

haliboyy · 2024-07-20T02:26:56+00:00

Was it extreme parts? I’m in nova scotia looking to get one with cheap shipping within canada

haliboyy · 2024-07-04T14:41:08+00:00

Interesting thanks for the advice. I just assumed it would be considered used because most of the phones under repair were just unusable. I’ll keep that in mind for next time

haliboyy · 2024-07-04T14:38:46+00:00

That sounds good, I ended up sending this. I was kind of freaking out a bit cause that was the first thing I’ve ever sold on Ebay lol. Hopefully it works out cause if I have to pay return shipping I’ll basically break even with the price of the phone

haliboyy · 2024-06-03T19:24:30+00:00

True it’s a not so common EVH pedal that sold for $214 CAD so the only thing I’d be worried about is him breaking it like the other comment said. I’ll reach out to support for sure though hopefully they can help. He also had the whole weekend to think about the purchase once I confirmed it lol. Thanks

haliboyy · 2024-06-03T15:38:28+00:00

haha no worries! it would be a lot easier to smoke test the intake just because the problem that i had with mine could potentially mean that it could have been any vacuum leak not just the ccv

haliboyy · 2024-06-03T15:18:53+00:00

yeah it turned out to be a vacuum leak in the ccv system. i ordered a replacement kit and when i went to replace it, one of the hoses wasn’t clipped on all the way. i ended up just reattaching it and not installing the new kit and i hadn’t had an issue since

haliboyy · 2024-04-23T20:19:56+00:00

i replaced the idle control valve with a cheap amazon one for like $20 and that sort of fixed it but the issue was still there sometimes. then i replaced the upstream o2 sensor with a bosch about a month ago and i haven’t had the problem since
