Car turned me into a liar...
So I posted last week about a clicking noise front the rear passenger tire. So I dropped it off at the shop yesterday so the could look at it. I get a call today saying they can't find anything wrong other than the spring is broke
He said he and 2 other mechanics drove the car and no one heard the click so he asked if I could come up and drive it with him and point out the sound. Now this is a pretty audible click so I was like wtf?! So I drive all the way up drive with him in the car and sure enough nothing. I have been driving with this nonstop clicking for 3 weeks and when I send it to the shop it stops! Well none the less I @ least found out I need a new shock! And best of all no charge!

My car was "fixed" for a whole 6 days. I tried replacing my steering wheel last night and now I'm riding around without an airbag hahaha.
Yeah, so now I'm using the broken spring excuse to get my coilovers! Since the wife said no the 1st time! As far as auto place I use is Smileks Car Care in Cuyahoga Falls. They specialize in European cars and main focus is Audis! Great place and even better deals!
haha i got sick one time and next day my mom took me to see the doc but i was all better lol. i think it's the scare factor. be careful with the broken spring, i'm guessing it's the rear. both of mine broke one winter at the same time and i ended up with a totally shifted rear end. my rear upper CAs were rubbing the quarter panels on both sides. good thing i caught it in time, otherwise i would be looking at dents coming out of the quarter panels
