1st. visit. On May 17th,
Work was completed on Transfer Case replacement which included pulling the engine assembly to do the job. Thanks jaak for info and diagram. Nearly three weeks no Mo
2nd. visit May18th,
Power steering fluid dripping down reservoir, No A.C., Lossed its Charge and a nice scratch on driver door. Had to wait till May 24th to pick up car because of replacement black molding strip on driver door that was damaged during removal for paint job.
3rd. visit May 25th
Driver window misaligned and a new minor scratch marks on black painted surface near window. Pronounced wind noise on freeway with window up. Same Day repair. Was given a Nissan sentra to drive back to work with service engine light on for that day.
4th. visit May 29th.
CVT Fluid Leak. After driving car to and from work for nearly a week, I nociticed that after the smell of lacquer from paint job on door subsided, I now began to smell burning oil in the interior. CVT dripping oil onto exhaust pipe. Mechanic added dye to CVT fluid and I was to continue to drive the car over the Memorial Day weekend. On June 1st. Car is back in shop to see if Colored dye shows up w/black light. This was done to rule out gear lube leak from transfer case. Dye showed up and now they were able to remove transfer case without having to pull motor. Go figure! Bad seal... Once again, Thanks Jaak for info. I suggested that they check the mating spline on and in the CVT for play, slop and run-out., because a new seal won't fix leak if any of those conditions exist.
All problems concurred one after the other as a result from initial work rendered.
