H*****, haha, what a f**ktard. It doesn't surprise me that he is denying liability and pulling out every excuse in the book. Some things never change.

Hope you get to f**k him in the ass for the trouble, take him to court and hammer him.

.... I'm still laughing at his stupidity, man.. He deserves a darwin award. I mean, if you were going to give a customers car a thrash, you'd do it AFTER you fix the big end bearing knock, right? What kind of a retard takes it out for a thrash while there's a known problem with it? hahaha.. idiot!!!

a hole in an iron block does not happen at low revs surely.

Come on.. what kind of WORKSHOP can say that what you have taken a photo of (current hole in block) happened during the car going up a ramp, and keep a straight face..

what a knut!!!

Have seen it happen on xr6t's with over 330rwkw's. What happens is that they bend rods ever so slightly however they never develop noise and all it takes is a slight decel and the piston to knuckle over and pick up on the bore. Pulls the little end out of the piston and then goes on to air conditioning the block.

Same car you used a microtech on?

Pay peanuts you get monkeys, do your homework better in the future and use someone with the right reputation and it wont happen again

When was this thread about a tuning issue?

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
