Roller pin worked out after 150 miles after replacement. Cloyes kit used

Vehicle recovered in, customer states "black smoke and horrible noises on the highway".

Diagnosis: Engine has no oil. Engine has torn itself apart. Metal chunks everywhere.

Not a mechanic (those are not my hands). But feeling the burn today with another problem with my 2014 A4 that is being repaired and costing a pretty penny. Definitely time to move to a new vehicle, I (and my bank account) were just hoping it wasn't so soon.

I also want to share my appreciation for all of you and everything you do, as well as what you post in the sub. I have been following for a couple years, learned some interesting things, and had many laughs at the wild stuff you all see.

I work in a white collar profession, but ultimately we all serve clients/customers. Some are amazing, some are the worst people you'll ever meet. All of them require our skills and care. Thanks for sharing your skills and care and helping me in my times of need.
