unreal

 

truck hit a big puddle when he was stopped on a rainy day and splashed a big puddle all over the front of his car. from that day on.....

 

wow that sux...guess water isn't compressible

 

That's insane...I bought my car from Ramsey and they certainly aren't the cream of the crop. It's been 2 months and I still haven't gotten the extra alarm remotes I requested. I only have one alarm remote to disable the system. Remind me not to drive i the rain with an AEM intake...poop.

 

Some BMW locations charge up to and over 100 bux and hour.

You don't want to be a tech....just a service advisor or Service Manager. They make stupid money.

 

he had the stock airbox when his car was splashed.

 

something doesn't sound right there then...with the stock airbox

that's a long way for water to travel...How long did he drive like that? Usually, as soon as the water is entered into a cylinder, the car would just explode...

 

same thing happened to my 02 lancer...i got hydrolock which bent a rod, a month later, it threw out sending flying out my engine breaking 3 holes in the block. peices of the piston were all over the pavement....

 

good thing they warrantied this

 

actually the standard shop rate is $135/hr. just sold my M3, trust me.

and no, the mechanics are not wealthy.

 

$82 an hour for a Mitsu dealer is rather cheap. I believe the ones in the Chicago area are close to if not $100 an hour.
