few hours passed by bathroom fan is working, i go in to do number 2...after few seconds.
POP POP POP reached over to turn switch off. smell of burn took over bathroom.
so disappointing. Later at night i went back to bathroom and removed fan. checked all wire connections and maybe WD40 shorted it out motor.


2nd attempt- order replacement for fan motor and arrived yesterday.
removed old fan, install new on bracket and all working 100%


i dont mind these minor repairs that i can manage but i pray they stay this small lol
I replaced mine in my master bath two weeks ago. You went the long route sir. I went to the store and just bought a new unit. I have to say I was surprised at how expensive some where.....and of course bluetooth is to anything with power, what 20" rims were in the 90's; it goes on everything. I bought a 60 CFM fan/light combo that still cost almost $100 and that was the cheap one. Damn near tore my drywall out of the ceiling before I realized the insulation was covering the two nails in the truss. My home repair guardian angel and myself ->

I will say that with my bathroom being so small with 60 CFM, it damn near creates a vacuum in there. I'm going to have to secure my towels.

But I've never had an experience where I got to go directly to the general manager of the dealership and deal with them directly - that was a new one for me, but very pleasant as it was short and sweet. No salesman running back and forth 10 times coming back with a different number each time.

In the end, I got the payments reduced by $130 per month over 36 months on a vehicle that MSRP's at $60K before tax. Which is reasonably significant as the profit margins are typically lower with lower priced vehicles.

What did that dealership eventually let it go for discount wise?
From what I remember, car was listed at 13,995+TTL, we walked out for 14200. I told him to open from $13k out the door or $12k+TTL and work from there, he started from 13500 OOTD even though $14k was his ultimate budget. The $200 meant he ate ramen for a week or two

edit: it was a 2013(14?) Passat S with less than 20k miles. I'm assuming it was a loaner car for the dealer and then went to auction since he bought it from a Mazda/Subaru dealer.

Better than me, though. I got my Lincoln for $500 off. Paid $12.5k out the door and two months later carmax offered me $6500. So I've been driving it until the wheels fall off; haven't even turned on the car in almost a month. Something tells me when I return it might not even start.

when i call for a service or repair for cars/house, I do my best to give generous tip.

just had my windshield replaced, seems like new windshields have "bmw connectdrive" stamp on top center. my old one didnt have it. The tech said seems like this new windshield supersedes current one. you should have no problem when im finish, it requires recalibration of safety features. took him 1hr, cover up all areas, cleaned up.
Now i had windshield replaced before something was missing or something wasnt installed correctly.
