I知 sorry? Not every one can expend hours digging into a car on a whim. I知 loaded with work. My free time does not allow for me to work on it. Excuse me for at least inquiring on a forum about my vehicle. As I have stated, I have an appointment soon, I知 here to only get information and opinions. Making such videos only takes a minute or two and the information given by other forum members has been pretty valuable and informative. I don稚 know why you would even post that.

I’ve made two posts. Two. If you have a problem with that, then just ignore the thread. You’ve added nothing. I’m obviously new, I’m here for information not a lecture. It may take you “15 minutes” to jack up a car. You do not know my schedule or financial situation. I haven’t been at this for “months.” I made one post about my transmission. My transmission is still fine, for now. As for the “if I have time to reply then I have time to work on my car” (1) I’m reply via my phone. You have no idea what I’m doing outside of that. So no, even if I’m replying doesn’t mean I have the time to work on my car. (2) It’s stupid to compare the time required to post something to working on a vehicle. My vehicle is of no concern to you as to when it gets done. So if I decide to wait that’s my decision. I was simply asking for information not a lecture. You had an opportunity to fulfil what I assume is this forums goal to help with issues and you failed that here, and to the comment about how it "seems that time spent taking and posting videos is more valuable than actually working on the problem." am I not working on it by learning about what it could be from knowledgeable individuals? This is supposed to be a car community/forum. “I call it like I see it” man, that’s just something rude people say. Last edited by DigitalFootprint; 05-04-2023 at 07:57 PM. |

It's threads. You started two threads. Now you're spending time arguing with me when you could be setting up the jack stands.
Oh, hey. I just remembered another thing that leaves behind a lot of soot, exhaust manifold leaks.

You’re assuming that I can even work on my vehicle right now. I replied to your first reply where you asked me about the exhaust etc, and i added more information and what do you do about it? You say that shit. I got home at 12am last night and made those videos before calling it a day. Do you really think I’m gonna work on my car, in the dark, not knowing what the hell im looking for at 12am? So why does me making a thread, asking fair questions, and replying to people who are trying to help me bother you? While I made a “thread” in Feb about my TOB simply just asking a god damn question, this post was about the soot/possible oil. I only added the TOB to the post because I got a clear audio recording of the event in question. I’m here for information, not to argue with you but you involved yourself in a thread. In the future, when I post, feel free to ignore them. I appreciate you trying to help by mentioning the manifold leaks. I do. I’m sorry if any of it came off wrong, but I’m going to be asking questions and that’s fair. I’ll get to my car when I can and in the meantime, I’m going to learn what I can about it. |

Now let's not get hung up on panties. You wanted it to be about the TOB back then and months later, you still don't know. Meanwhile, you kept driving it. If it was your TOB, it would have left you stranded a month ago.
If you had gotten underneath it back then, it's possible that you might have caught a crack in the exhaust manifold before it may have burned the seal on your timing cover which could have caused the oil leak. We'll never know. Shouldn't you be studying for finals?

This is going nowhere. I appreciate all who have provided information, even you maroon. I'm still open to conversation pertaining to the related issue, but I'm done with this particular discussion. |

1. In February, you started a thread about the sound you heard. Yes, you wanted it to be the TOB. 2. I mentioned the possibility of an exhaust leak and recommended getting underneath to check. 3. If it indeed had turned out to be an exhaust leak, there would be no reason to "drop the goddamn transmission." Mystery would've been solved right then in fifteen minutes. I don't give two shits about your car and what you do. Your post history is a perfect example of someone who prefers writing about their issue rather than actually doing something about it. You blew off my recommendation back then and it's quite possible that your inaction bit you in the ass. For your sake, let's hope I'm wrong. Once again, put down the cell phone and pick up a wrench. Anything else is bullshit.

He may not own a wrench. Yet.
Hey, we all gotta start somewhere. I remember my first wrench. Edit: And if you don't wanna wrench, then just take it to a reputable shop and throw money at the problem until its fixed.

Ah, but then OP shouldn't have implied that he has a wrench. Garbage in - garbage out. I kind of suspected that but I still take him at his word no matter how defensive.
