Well... I have some bad news. My cousin took her car into the piece of garbage shop that she bought the car from to have them fix a squeaking pulley. The only reason she took it there was because she had a $300 credit. They decided to take the belt off temporarily in order to stop the squeaking until they got the parts they needed in stock. This would have been fine because it was the A/C pulley, but the other belt they loosened up/took off temporarily did not get tightened back up before she left the shop and the car overheated and the engine started making all kinds of racket. Shortly after this happened, I drove to the parking lot where she broke down and checked out the situation. First things was first, I check the oil and it looked fine. No burnt smell or discoloration of any kind and it was at the full mark. I then proceeded to check the belts and it was obvious what had happened. I took pictures for proof. Anyway long story short on that - They towed the car back to the shop and blamed it on something else and ripped her off. No sense in getting into details because I will only get angry again. The worst part about it all was that they (without her consent) drained her oil and charged her for an oil change. Even though, she had told them multiple times DO NOT TOUCH THE OIL. So, basically the experiment is shot. They told her that the engine had burned up all the oil...Negative, I checked it throroughly.
I'm sorry for those who are dissappointed. It was out of my control and even my cousin's because they drained it without her consent. Might I add, they also repaired the car without her consent. That was a huge issue because it is illegal, but the situation is complicated and I would have to write a novel to explain all the details.
