It's a fake profile though, so they'd probably have to try and fake buy them, and on top of that it's not like the wheels have any identifiable features to tie them to me anyway.
Is he Mexican?

No, no cast. There is a plate thing inside to keep it flat. I was referring to how they do a block on my arm. For several hours after your arm, usually about 12 to 18, has zero feeling and you can't move it.. You have to pick it up. Wore off pretty quick this time. Doesn't feel too bad. I have oxy, but decided on a couple vodka tonics instead.

that's how it was when i severed the tendon in one of my index fingers back in 2013. to clean it (all the way down to the bone!) and "re-set" it, they need to do a numb block first. Such a weird feeling. The weirder part is I can still remember how it felt when the surgeon was sanitizing the flesh/bone because the vibrations reached my arm... still makes me shiver just thinking about it.

Sounds like old frig condenser. Coming the engine bay. After they checked it, they claim it’s “normal” sound. Thankfully got 3 years new car warranty… got 2 more years to keep checking

Old refrigerator noise? Hmmmmmmm............????

Welp, the heater (core) can only make a gurgling sound (if there is air trapped in it). The water pump, that's pushing the water through the heater, can make all kinds of squeaky or grinding sounds. The fan that's blowing air over the heater core can make squeaky or chattering sounds. The ducts or vents can make flippy sounds.

I suggest you make a DIU stethoscope type thing and try to further isolate where the sound is coming from. Or find another car on the dealers lot like yours to see if it IS "normal".

Bubba says to pound on things till the noise changes tone or goes away, then you know where it is.

You were awake? They usually give me a block for the surgery, but also give me a bit of propofol so I sleep through it all. Way better combo than a general.
