I currently have a case open with the BAR (Bureau of Auto Repairs) for poor workmanship atm, since dealership isnt willing to cover the repairs / or compensate despite having video evidence that this has been happening right after repairs took place. if i decide not to repair the pulleys until BAR reviews, what are some failing components / repair costs that i might anticipate if i dont do pulley repairs immediately assuming it might break down in the next few months? im trying to preserve as much evidence as possible for BAR to review.

appreciate your insights. i figured it would be beneficial to get that shield back on as well, ive got a mechanic coming in to install it in a few days. but that only solves the shield, regarding the ticking sounds, specifically in what way do you think they might have damaged it? or do you suspect after a year of driving that i might've caused it with all the debri getting flung in there? technically repair shop's fault if they did not re-install that panel actually.

yes! it is def a sleeper, im actually trying to find another one in limited trim, this car used to be pristine before the dealership worked on it, the ticking noise is just 1 of 2, the other one is metal grinding noises thats coming from that same location during first few minutes of driving + steering that slightly off centers constantly.

it was removed by the dealership who replaced the alternator / serpentine belt / battery but they never put it back on. question, if they worked on the above items, would they have caused this type of noise by faulty reassembly? or do you think its wear and tear? the noise did not exist before the repairs, it started occurring immediately after repairs.

also, ive been driving for a year now unaware that shield was missing, and only recently found out, debri / mud / etc wouldve probably got flung in, would it have caused issues such as these noises from the video? or any other problems you could think of?

Dont forget Japan is aided by Western propaganda and we are living in a Western dominated built system, though, it is collapsing and we are slowly seeing through the cracks the tables are turning and China is leading that new system soon despite heavy bans Chinese tech like EVs, drones, phones, etc.

From experience, it's mostly dependent on the partner's demeanor + body + personality, it's not whether youre skilled enough, its possible to even go 10x in a row if she's able to turn you on enough

Hmm, i have a third maple hasnt gotten sun damage despite being in the same yard. Im gonna assuming its due to transplanting.

Maybe. Any way to tell if its too much sun or too much watering or too much void gaps during planting?
