In case you were wondering
Here’s how to spend $1500 fixing a noise that you thought a bottle of oil would solve:
- Have your mechanic inform you that you weren’t just low on oil, your oil cap has gone completely missing. This will result in
- Oil all over the inside of your engine, including on your drive belts and exhaust manifold. This will result in a request to pressure wash your engine.
- Make sure those now-oily drive belts were already cracking, so that instead of being cleaned they can just be replaced altogether.
- Need new brakes on all 4 wheels instead of just the two you thought needed them.
- Be 4,000 miles overdue for your 60K mile maintenance.
Easy as pie!
