Question for you guys that have been in accidents .... do you have the insurance company send you the payment, or to the repair place?

 

Hello coworker!

 

That I'm not sure of , it could be two belts there's a power steering belt tensioner and OEM tensioner !!

It only makes noise when cold and then its okay but if I push on the loud pedal hard enough it will make noise . I hear a very faint chirping noise at idle ,this is why I think its the belt . Like I mentioned yesterday the belts were replaced January 2017 , maybe 5k miles ago

 

When I got hit in my Camaro 10 years ago I had the insurance co mail me the check then I paid the body shop

 

I've been self-employed for 20 years. On the downside my boss is a critical, self-absorbed jerk that pushes me relentlessly to work, work, work.

On the upside I'm sleeping with his wife.

 

I'm sure it's way different, but we initially thought the chirping noise on my wife's truck was the belts and it turned out to be the cam and lifters.

 

I knew p/s was separate. I was just curious is it was a 3 belt system or 2 with alt sharing blower.
Been so long since I saw one I don't remember.

 

It's got me baffled , been thinking maybe I should take it to my local Toyota Dealer

I did check the blower snout or drive gears on the blower and they're quiet so its not those bearings

 

Well if the belts are crap I'd be going back before I headed to the dealer.

 

Repair place but . I find out what they estimate . Just so I know , if they find more they just notify the insurance company.

So I went to the chiropractor and he just popped it back in. And yes it is painful. I couldn't stand to touch my right side, every movement would make the rib move and aggitate the nerves.

 

Well that sounds better than what I had envisioned.

 

The wind is cranked up today.

 

Same here :}

He harbors a superiority complex that no one below him on the chain of command could possibly possess any skill or knowledge that he doesn't. It's a wonder his head fits through doorways. I normally tolerate him, but today was not good. Just get away from me and let me do my job....

 

Our ice storm warning has been down graded to winter weather advisory. Still expecting some freezing rain.

 

The last two times I had them send it to me. that way you have some leverage incase your not satisfied with the repair work

 

You re probably getting the same SSW winds I had last night and they were very strong

 

temp just climbed up a few degrees , now 41° / feels like 32°​
