Just thought I would relay this story and see if it sounds about right.
I found water leaking form my car. Took it to Nissan today. They called and said it was the water pump. My immediate reply, "well cool, nothing major". WRONG!
Little did I know that you have to take the front of the engine off to fix it. Although it has 183000 miles on it, who came up with the idea of putting a commonly failed part behind the timing chain?
Hammer number 2, he made the comment that he is surprised the car is still moving. I don't understand what he was telling other than the CV joint were dry and about warn to a point of separating. I thought CV joints were similar to U joints. Once again, I am wrong.
I will let you know more after the fourteen hundred dollar saga is over, or do you think I am spending too much?
