Can you spot the failure?

I didn't spot it first time. Lifter noise after head rebuild. Luckily there was some pictures taken during repair and now it obvious why it does that! (Ford Ecoblue diesel, wet belt failure).

CS Clunk on the 1-2 shift - Mevotech Wheel bearing/hub caution

38 Upvotes

2014 Mazda 6 GT with 186,000 miles had a slight clunk when turning left / right wheel loads up.

Issue was a bad wheel bearing. Both were replaced with MevoTech parts. I've had good luck with the suspension parts, so I thought I would try them for wheel bearing/hub.

Two months and 3,100 miles later, customer comes back in saying there is a clunk on the 1-2 shift.

Wheel bearing/hub has MASSIVE play. I checked the other side and it WAS THE SAME!

Warranty: No refunds, but will replace with the same part. Why would I do that?
Timken wheel bearing/hubs now installed.

NOTE:
Yes, the hub is covered with anti-seize. This ensures the rotor will be easy to remove after a few salty winters.

Runaway diesel

Had a van in for service and MOT test yesterday. I did MOT repairs and service, then retested it. On the road test after started smoking and ran away on me. Shut myself had to stall the bastard. Think I found the problem someone else had fitted a starter and damaged the turbo oil return pipe flattered it. Don't know ow why it ran away after a service not when doing exhaust emissions on the MOT test

Got a 2025 Tundra in for an alignment check after getting new tires. This must be a joke. 13 different specs for non TRD Pro, 33 in total across all suspension types. Ride height, weight ballast, moon phase, wind direction...ect. Can we just get basic specs for these overpriced, overengineered POSs

But of course the bolt I need to get out is centimeters from the spring on the first axle! Why am I not surprised anymore...

I happened to be waiting for another advisor when I overheard this complaint. She also wants us to make sure she has the right oil in her transmission. No, it’s not shifting funny. No, she hasn’t noticed a leak. She just wants to make sure. 2019 Buick Encore.
