All I can say is I'm pleased both my cars have timing chains & I do regular oil changes (don't drive either much but checked my V6 other week it was hard to see oil on the dipstick still that clean maybe because of low mileage about 250klm's a year)
I have never seen someone so close to needing a motor lol good stuff tho. Real question tho was it off timing? I would assume so unless the tensioner was able to extend far enough out. I need to know
Subaru came into our shop for a missfire… If was not making any strange noises and dealer had done the timing belt a few months before hand even had the fancy sticker indicating so… well I went through my diag procedure found the right bank had low compression.. I dropped the exhaust manifold so i could get my eyes on the exhaust valves and I did a leak down test and we had some blow by on a couple valves figured that there was a small break or some carbon build up was causing it to not close all the way…. so we were planning on pulling heads and doing some valves… well when we pulled the timing cover we found the tensioner was loose!!! It skipped 2 teeth the belt was about shredded and was cutting in the timing cover somewhere near the crank! Im guessing they didn’t lock tight the bolts nor did they torque them!!! But same thing absolutely no strange noise… no cam/crank correlation codes! No indication of any timing belt related issues!!
Lucky!! On a side note…done my 3rd Honda J-Series timing belt and water pump while following your YT video. That was a great video you put together. 👏🏿👏🏿 Thanks.
You'll repair it and then it won't run right because it was used to running with broken parts! 😂😂😝😅
Some days you're the bug and some days you're the windshield! 😂🐝
Those things have timing belts? I had no idea
WOW. Lucky. And as dry as it is not to have smoked…REALLY lucky.
Oh yes..those ball bearings are a Chrysler option..you don't really need 'em..🤪
The things people drive……
Don’t know much about the Dodge Journey and you don’t see too many of them on the Road.
WOW! Very very lucky! I hope that she went out and bought a lottery ticket!
We just had a Subaru come in with the same problem but was noisy. It blew it's mind out in a car! But we got it back on the road.
When you lose an argument with your wife and she says “Oh wow you lost your balls, theres some of them. Some more sitting over there.” 😖

Honda odessy vcm delete video
Living life on the edge, and she didn't even know it.
Caught that in the nick of time! It probably wouldn't have lasted much longer and WHAMO!
I take it that it's a interference engine and yep she definitely won.
You’d think something like that would be… unbearable……
I’ll let myself out……
they lucked out that's for sure
Wow…that's all I can say…
Hand of God keeping that from jumping a cog and destroying that engine😮🙏👏👏👏

Get out of here!
That’s the built in fail safe. It’s designed that way.
What a terrible engine over all
Must have a loud radio!
Yea you forgot to mention that some days the bear gets you a stomps the crap out of you. 😳
Interference engine?
She must be living life right… whew!
whew
The bearing was screaming, she just didn't notice.

You need to take her with you to buy you a lotto ticket.

Wow
