6 injectors, 6 plugs, battery, oil change, headlight washer nozzle fell off to boot. Injectors are the old style so they need to be updated or so they claim...

"It is recommended to replace all six instead of mixing and matching. Vehicles with old injector 7585261 will need to inspect their existing injectors to determine if these can be replaced individually. With an index of 11 or greater, injectors may be replaced individually with a new injector. If the index is 10 or less, all 6 injectors in an inline-6 engine must be replaced."

The E92 says it is low on coolant now.

FML.

Is it the same hose that went out for me? Brittle plastic died in these temps.

I haven't looked and I don't want to. I just put more coolant in it and drove it to work. It's a closed system so no bueno either way.

I fucking hate cars right now. I replaced a 'frozen caliper' still did not fix my ebrake not holding on the maxima. I think the shop was an idiot who told me which side was frozen...or I have issues with the cable which I find unlikely...

Been there. Check if you see it spewing under the snorkel. I think I posted part numbers, but it's an easy fix as long as you have a battery charger and new coolant.

Yes.
#6 is very thin plastic and definitely going to crack. I pulled it off, and it pulled a piece of #1. Both got replaced on mine, fill coolant, 12 minute bleed process.

Blew a tire. Right front. M O N S T E R pothole on RT 20 in Sudbury. Never saw it coming in the dark and with this rain. I'm sure the rim is bent.

Yeah that is a bummer sorry man

... this is why I bought a winter beater this year MASS roads SUCK, it's unfortunate...I've gone through 2 sets of rims because of it

Torgus · 12-11-2014, 03:23 PM

this is going to be a shitty winter.

SLOWER · 12-11-2014, 04:22 PM

When I switched from RFT to non, I bought the road hazard tire insurance. First time in my life I have ever bought something like that. It's already paid for itself on two tires. One front and one rear.

Wheel was bent, Direct Tire had it straightened for $150. I'm sure that's a minimum of 100% profit...

That's a pretty good profit margin if you ask me!

I have to drive on 114 everyday in Andover and it makes me question why I got coilovers for this car. No potholes to avoid but the road is far from smooth

no shit eh? I work in Lawrence right on the Andover border in the mill building by the 495 exits. Lawrence roads suck more but why do the Andover roads suck? They have the cash to fix them where as Lawrence is broke as usual.
