Put the summer wheels on yesterday.
something is fucked on the rear hub. wheel won't sit all the way flush. This has been an on going problem with both sets of my wheels. Had a mechanic buddy look at it and said there's nothing visually wrong with it... no nubs and since its on both wheels its obviously the hub that's the problem.
I just hammer it on with the impact and torque wrench it on ever time I park for a few weeks and then its finally in place. dealer says there's nothing wrong with it. clearly its fucked.
Forgot one of the front wheels is bent (it balances perfect but has a visual wobble)
buying wheels = buying suspension too so I'm not 4x4'ed out... something I don't want to spend money on at this point considering the suspension is fine....
already sick of the shaking wheel.
couple that with the other issues that have come up lately and I've just fallen out of love. I think its time for me and genny to see different people.
The main warranty (non-power train) is up at 60k. I have 44k on it. So pretty soon, I'm out of warranty for the most part anyway... probably by this fall at the latest.
I owe 7k on it.
kbb has it listed for 17k in good condition so I should have a bit of equity in the car. call it 15k on a trade. that leaves about 7k equity give or take to play with.
I was really looking forward to not having a car payment for a while, though.
I was thinking about a 135i for a while, but they just want too much for them still. cpo's are 35. f that.
I'm thinking maybe taking the 7k and buying something cash... of course, that will probably come with it's own set of problems.
ugh
I need to hit the lotto. (or a deer, because that would solve my problem for me. lol)
