Something’s missing….?

Well - Serpentine belt went on Saturday. Had it towed to the dealer, of course, they were closed as it was later in the afternoon. The pulled it in to get working and noted the exhaust was a little loud……they checked under and yup - its gone…..

We looked at the security videos. Less than 5 mins, two jackasses in a Silver Honda CRV with paper plates relived me of my catalytic converter……….its covered by insurance but I am so mad.

makes you want to install a downward facing claymore doesn't it, they got mine a year or two ago, and I came THAT CLOSE to catching them, literally they were just pulling away, and i would definitely have followed and got the cops on the phone, maybe even volunteer to do the pit maneuver for the cops as well.

no- it wasn't checked into their system so was outside in their front parking lot.

the cop did say the brand new Enterprise rental place across the street got hit hard over the weekend too.

amen brother. Yeah. For now I ll be watching every Silver CRV drive by me.

ford doesn't even make them anymore so the closest the dealer can get is a 3rd party through NAPA.

nope, magnaflow makes a replacement for it, lookup the Magnaflow #55400, thats what i put in, it actually flows better than the factory one, and its made for large displacement engines, such as 6 litre and higher.

Looks like they are about $594 right now, and several sites have free shipping.
