    Why did you keep driving when it started sounding like it was coming apart?

    Oh man. That got written and sent by my keys hitting the screen of my phone while this thread was open on the phone’s web browser. Good thread btw.
    Love the Don Vito clip!

    I had a '08 KW and started hearing a thumping sound but boss told me to finish the trip and then bring it to shop. Didn't make it. Turned out cam shaft broke on the side of I-15 in Utah. :(

    Me being mechanical, I always got a kick out of people telling me their car or boat was making a really loud noise for about 3 days before it blew up.

    Still to this day stopped at a light and I hear some nice car s lifters clacking away and look over at the young girl playing on her phone saying to myself that hood hasn't been opened in a year.

    I wonder if my boss would try to charge me for the engine, doesn't seem like that kind of person but I may ask him.
