I keep waiting for the day when I'm working on a German car and I find something intelligently or elegantly designed.

Once again, today wasn't that day.

LOL...Maybe you need to change the manufacturer.... ;)  :run:
All of the German marques have their German "engineering" stupidities..

Didn't your car almost burn to the ground from a PCV valve? LOL [emoji38]

LOL... I knew you are going to say that.  :)
Yes it did but still love it and I'm sure you do too. They are nice to be in and drive despite anything else.

Yeah, that old shock was nasty. Those Mazda mounts are the worst, been a top seller for us for years now.  :rofl2:

Cousin had his rear shock mounts snap on the 401 in Toronto. He needed a tow.

He took the nearest exit after hearing very loud clunking and checked it out in a parking lot. He called CAA right after.

Those vultures would've definitely swarmed him if he was on the side of the 401.
