Dnt feel bad. Just how it goes sometimes.
I got to tell this story, about Bugeaters wife's car.
Bugs a dam good mechanic, we've been turning wrenches on cars since we were 15 years old.
So his wife's electirc car seat will only go back about a 3rd of the way. He spent months trying to figure it out, even sent it to the dealership to be fixed. They couldn't fix it either.
So one day Bugs decides to do a nice detailed cleaning job on the car. As he's vacuuming around under the seat. He finds a frigging Quarter stuck in the track of the car seat. Pulls the Quarter out of the track. And its fixed like new.

I paid 150$ each time for the dash to come out. Not terrible. Actual dealer price is like 800 labor I think. I used to work with the guy in my late teens and early 20s. I was working for said dealership until a shitty service manager tried to starve me out.

And that’s funny about the track!

One person told me to reverse the heater core hoses just to see if it started working for awhile to rule out being plugged up. I don’t think the core would be directional. But could it hurt?
