Car Stop working, now they return the car to me.


It overheated because it dint have Water..


It has a Brown OIL, VERY THICK TOO.

The Engine still TURN OVER, but will not start.

I will remove the Damage oil, FLUSH the ENGINE with "ENGINE FLASH, and I will see how bad is the Damage!!!

I don't think the Head Gasket is damage, but we WILL SEE.


Anyone here got similar problem before?

I have to be HONEST with you GUYS, I MISS you GUYS. HAHAHAHAHA. i remember always checking this FORUM and reading EVERY DAMM DAY. like drugs. AHAHAHAHAHA


AND yes, i STILL CANT SPELL, and my grammer still suck.
-------------------

There was no water on the Radiator!! before i sold it to them, i told them to add water weekly to the radiator because its leaking.. I guest they dint listen to me


It overheated, Now it will not start..

TO make it worse, THE OIL is so THICK. and brown.... and THey added more OIL, so it has so much oil on it..

I will Drain the OIL,, Drop some "ENGINE FLUSH" and crank the engine to let the ENGINE FLush FLuid circulate. then Refill OIL..

Hopefully it will do the trick.. Then I will Flash the Radiator, and put some Regular Water, for now to see if everything works like it suppose to.

If it does run and work like it use to.. I will Purchase a new water pump and install it.. it should be easy..

I have attach a LINK to the Video,, Check it out, Forward to 0.45 Seconds. and check out the OIL. its THICK and brown. let me know what you think..

I think the head gasket still good, because its not white and milky.

Also, i found some water on the tailpipe, maybe a got a crack engine??

just because the oil isnt white doesn't mean it doesn't have coolant mixed in with it. if it looks and feels like a milkshake you have a problem! my bet it blown head gasket(s) or cracked heads.

i would have told them tough shit, them not doing maintenance on a vehicle they bought would void ANY warranty period.

welcome back.
but im w/ the rest. Why take it back? You didnt buy it back right? Im w/ justin, if they didnt do maintance, tough its yours. Not fixing it. Thats part of a owning a vehicle, new or old. Looks like they tore it up also. And from the amount of dirt on the cluster face, geez, looks like they didnt do a damn thing but drive it and not very good at that.

You shouldn't have to do all this work on behalf of their negligence. I hate people who try to pull crap like this. That's wack man, you should tell them to go :yourself:

I did not purchase the car back.. They where making payments on the car for a few months of 567 Every months.

So far i got 3400 Cash from it. it was a monthly payment. Now i got a truck which may need a new rebuilt engine or not. So if the car is in a good condition, i made 2900 after the repair and i got the car back

Dodo the Body work and Interior work is 600-700 it will look new again. But the problem is the ENGINE. If the engine is ****. then I'm out of LUCK. Then i have to sue.

I have sue people before, so no problem there..

I just hope its nothing big.. I will do a compression test on it soon
