I know, shitpost.

But: A few years ago the front right spring broke on my Peugeot 307 van, dug itself into the tire and ripped of the tire when I tried to. move the car. (It was parked when it happened)

Two hours before I had driven that van on the Autobahn at its vmax of about 180kph (about 110mph)

Ripping off the front tire would NOT have been a fun situation.

While it's a shitpost, it is entirely real. Pulled this from my neighborhood FB group.

Terrifying

Yeah my car mechanic told me that some cars/manufacturers have exactly this design flaw where the end of the broken spring slides out and pierces the tire. He mentioned that also BMWs do this. I previously had a VW Golf and had broken springs like 4 times (used to drive a lot on unpaved country and forest roads for work) which luckily doesn't do this. The rest of the spring stays in and sometimes we only noticed a spring was broken again during inspection. Sometimes I heard the broken part rattle while driving on uneven terrain. Don't know where I would have ended if every broken spring had pierced a tire...

Unintentionally seemingly

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

so if you try to replace this yourself it turns out you have to jack up BOTH SIDES or the sway bar will be under tension and it will be hard to pull the link out. You can raise or lower the opposite side a bit to get it just right. the dudes on youtube that have a lift might not even think about how the car needs to be lifted evenly. I use arch btw.

If it's solid, I'd say part of a spring from one of the front struts. Otherwise, no idea what part it could be.

Unmark yourself as a bot unless ofcourse you intentionally did it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Wtf I need to change my password

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why ? Just untick the box that says mark yourself as bot or somethin its easy if your own jerboa.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I didn't write that post but it was on my account.

Edit: I think I did it. Been having to deal with a lot of hackers lately. Having to change a lot of passwords.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Ok then you should definetly change the passwd and maybe go through your post and comments and nuke the ones you didn't make ?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (3 children)

That was the only one. Changed my pass on all instances. I'm going to do more investigating now. Thank you

Edit: fuck. I was high on weed and did write it. I cleaned it up and restored the post. Fuck me.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

But thats what an imposter would say to convince me that your not in any issue.....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Don't mention it happy i could help .

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Lmao it was funny to me how someone would hack into your account on some obscure website and reply with such a benign, non advertisement comment. Glad you got that cleared up haha!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Nothin you'd miss

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

As a former Hyundai tech, I'm not surprised....
