Just another rant.

This is the place to ask questions about your engine components like cams, valves, pistons… just anything that is generally "engine" specific. This also includes questions about exhaust systems such as exhaust manifolds, piping size, mufflers, ect...

Just another rant.

Post by BR4ND0NW4YN3 » Fri Feb 14, 2014 11:49 pm

Driving around today and my car starts screaming bloody murder with any throttle. I've been informed my tensioner pulley bearing might have exploded :banghead: not a good way to end my valentines day. Ugh. So now I get to do that along with changing my transmission fluid. :cussing: OK I'm done. Thanks for reading.
...Yeah that's a KISS sticker in my back window.

Lol. Quality Facebook rant.

What's mileage on car? Could have missed a milestone interval.

Sounds like standard maintenance to me.

Only 50K miles on the motor. I've read the procedure and I am fully capable of doing it. I'm just not happy about it.

I stand by my post. It's unfortunate, but hopefully we don't all feel the need to "rant" about every thing that annoys us.

only 50k miles, but it is 10 years old. Age does have an impact.

in otherwords: Maintenance item.
