    no screenshot, no proof, no happen, no care. they can't prove shit, so they can shove it in their ass. it's under warranty, replace it or ill sue. and ill sue hard. ill sue you for your gd under pants.

    I suppose. Rod knock is very distinctive over a spun bearing, not to mention more violent. I could still drive the integra with a spun bearing (at least to the shop). Try driving one with a broken rod lol

    I have done both...it will skip an run like a misfire....

    Either way it sucks, I hate when you put your hard earned money into cars/trucks/bikes and something like this happens.

    Well Jason, best of luck with it. Hopefully they won't have the car down too long...


    Wait, does this mean you get to abuse a rental car for a while?
