I took my car to this shop called 5 star auto repair in springfield. I got a full timing belt job, but there was a noise that would come and go after i drove and has gone on for a while. My ac belt also went bad and the guy replaced it again but charged me for the part. I took it back a few mths later regarding the noise and the guy said it was the pulley i think its the timing belt pulley but i just left. Rather not have him fix it and then mess something else up.

Now i feel that shop is just a bunch of idiots who do not do quality work and i will not get my pulley replaced weather or not its covered under the warranty from them.

So i need to get it done elsewhere, any ideas?

 

SOME PEOPLE DONT REPLACE THE T-BELT TENSIONER BECAUSE THEY SAY IT WILL BE OK BECAUSE IT LASTED THIS LONG BUT COULD FAIL AT ANYTIME
WAS YOURS REPLACED?

 

1) a) You got mechanical work done at a body shop.

b) You got a shitty TB job... any good shop will use a kit that includes all the new pulleys/idlers/tensioners... find a better shop.

2) The labor is going to be expensive to do this job... its almost as much work to replace this one pulley as it is to have the original TB job done.

3) Have the problem fixed soon... its only a matter of time before this pulley seizes up and takes the belt/timing out with it...

 

Did you really have to yell it?

 

my mistake it wasnt auto body it was auto repair

i replaced the tensioner, soch it made it sound as though its the same thing as the pulley??????

 

was that even in english?

 

sorry i was in capz loxxxxzz mode
