Get the idea that we’re just not supposed to work on newer cars any more. The old LR has a bearing kit that allows you to upgrade the door hinges when they wear out. If you can, imagine a new car lasting long enough to wear out the hinges.

No, cars are being turned into disposable goods. I took my Town Car’s rotors in to be turned because they had a little bit of ridging on them. Turns out that not only were they under spec for turning, but brand new rotors are under spec as well. Meaning that if your rotors develop the slightest defect, you have to toss ‘em and buy new ones, no one will turn them for you. Absurd, is what that is.
