Default While my car is disassembled, is there anything I should check?
Just hit 60K, anything I should check? Fixing some minor things like leaking winshield washer fluid tank, changing rotors, etc. Anything I should look for engine wise? Thanks!

At 60k may be a good time to replace the timing belt, water pump etc.

Default done deal at 51k
Water pump went, brought it to shop and they didn't time it right so when they started it, bent all my exausht valves... I know I couln't believe it either. Anyways, timing belt, water pump, new valves, head, etc. all got done at 51k

Might be a good time for a brake fluid service.

Default Independent, would rather not mention who though>>>
The mechanic who screwed my car up is no longer there so I wouldn't want to give them a bad name. They were semi cool about it, took forever but I promise I will never bring my car back again.
