Thread: What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0

I never bothered with torquing and mine are still going strong years later.

Replaced my dying MAF sensor. Car runs way better now. Killed a ~2009 v6 Charger and a ~2014 BMW 328i on my way to and from pepboys.

Got the 3.25 on, 0 kr, rich AF with low timing lol

get a new hub with a 3 year warranty, then when the other side fails, warranty it and get a free hub lol ive done this. for the fail rate i figure they owe us all.

I've used moog, Timken, and acDelco over the last 10 years. None have failed on me.

AcDelco professional tie rod ends failed on me 14 months after install. Went with moog this time around.
