So it was an act of God

Which is only slightly better than fake parts in some cases, my dad worked in aviation safety and said that parts from wrecks would come on the market with some weird paperwork that they knew was fake but hard to prove, an airliner in Columbia crashed and parts were for sale within a week even on Ebay

I suspect that they service centres do not do any motor repair so they just swap in another one

He could be selling time expired original parts or ones repaired by non approved shops, aircraft parts have literally a raft of paperwork to identify them for safety reasons, you can have a heater with and without paperwork and they can be identical but you cannot install the non papered one in a plane.

Wonder if the parts were fake or just the paperwork ? either is bad the former is worse

Some of the early Lear Jets had some circuit breakers that you could shut off to get more speed  called the ‘go faster’ switch. My dad was an aviation accident investigator and was looking at the wreckage of one and first thing they checked was the breaker position if they existed

My concern is the gigacastings, if you have any damage to them it would write off the vehicle

Today Edmonton got about 1cm of snow, saw a Wrangler going through an intersection and it spun out, there is barely any ice but he had big ass off road tires that are probably hard as a rock

I’m guessing Alfa Romeo was just outside this list

Years ago in BC if your insurance lapsed for a period they would send the cops to seize your plates got woken up early one Sunday in Penticton staying at a girlfriends, turns out her husband hadn’t paid the insurance bills, and she neglected to let me know she was married

Bring back the Astro !! ruh roh

Hang on a minute, lads; I’ve got a great idea

Sure this isn’t Garage 54 with something they built ?

Not really a horror but not too much fun, A2 Jetta I got a recall notice in regards to the heater core, oh well get that done some day. Decided to drive to Vancouver from Edmonton in January, middle of the Coquihalla the car suddenly fills with steam coating all the windows with sweet sweet glycol. I was able to open…

Lucky the last animal I bumped was a porcupine

With all the curves probably never thought a vehicle could keep that much speed

I suspect he got ticketed there and was going to take a photo once the sign was gone so he could plead his case in court
