Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 6 hours ago, teef said: i don't know if you'll ever run into it, or if i'm just unlucky, but i have a 2018 with 70k miles on it that i just learned needs 15k worth of work. that's what the dealer told me. i took it to a mechanic that i know well, and without giving him any indication of cost, he also quoted me 15k. Apparently the rings below the cylinders wore out, and there's oil all throughout the engine, causing it to misfire. when i asked how it could happen, they said it may not have been broken in correctly or regular maintenance wasn't completed, both which are nonsense. it seems that the parts just aren't reliable. as to what you said about getting work done...when i went to get my car from the dealer, the service department was packed, and booked out for over a month. i asked him if it was a volume issue, and he said no. it was due to the fact that most were larger jobs, and one car could hold up a bay for days. sorry for going so off topic. i'm bitter. 15k for a 5 year old car? That’s criminal!! Quote
