View Full Version : Any wrenches want to do a side job?
BenDF 10-01-2006, 04:10 PM I want to replace my serpentine belt and the 2 pulleys. I have the belt, and the pulleys already. Would like to pay someone local to do the install if possible. Obviously I would prefer someone who has done this before! :)
Let me know, thanks.
volcomnator999 10-01-2006, 04:17 PM m3mobbin made a thread on the stuff he can install...i suggest you check it out
he did my tranny oil change
LWRNCE 10-01-2006, 04:19 PM DIY... its really easy.
bimmerhead2005 10-01-2006, 04:20 PM He's not looking for DIY he's looking for someone to do it.
LWRNCE 10-01-2006, 04:22 PM He's not looking for DIY he's looking for someone to do it.
No duh. lol...
Just saving him some money...
volcomnator999 10-01-2006, 04:24 PM lol...you guys are phunny
BenDF 10-01-2006, 04:26 PM Everytime I DIY, I break something else while doing so. Haha.
Also I tried that fellow Nathan, but communication has been kind of off and on. I would like to get this done, and he is probably too busy for this small job or something.
So yeah, I'm willing to pay because I am afraid of having my car apart for 2 days trying to figure it out or something haha.
roush611 10-01-2006, 06:50 PM at least he is honest with himself!! I dont blame him for not wanting to break stuff on his M
BenDF 10-01-2006, 08:57 PM obviously it's not so easy because no one wants the "easy" money? lol
turbosporttsi 10-01-2006, 10:07 PM nah its pretty straightforward...... i would take you up on the offer but i never have the time.
where are you located?
BenDF 10-01-2006, 10:54 PM Hehe. Thanks. I live in Chino, and work in Anaheim.
So I cover a pretty decent amount of "local area".
It's cool, I will probably just go get raped at a shop somewhere near my work to just get it done.

ah man if you lived in norcal I would be down to do it for some pizza and beer. I am sure someone will see the thread and help you out. If not you can always come up to norcal.:D
BenDF 10-01-2006, 11:18 PM Funny you say that. I have friends up there, and visit often. People seem cooler out there. (sorry guys)
I wanted to move out there, but ended up taking a job offer I couldn't refuse.
bawareca 10-01-2006, 11:41 PM If Reseda is not so far for you , I can do it.
turbosporttsi 10-01-2006, 11:44 PM yeah man, someone will do it for you. its really not hard at all. just do it yourself. i'd be surprised if it took you more than 2 hrs tops.
i know all about breaking sh*t, but this is one of those things you cant really mess up. per se' .....
and anaheim is a little ways from me but g/l.
BenDF 10-02-2006, 12:52 AM I know that it should be easy. However, last time I pulled out my throttle body, and ICV to clean, I somehow broke my coolant air temp sensor while pulling out the airbox. $70 mistake!
I am a wiz when it comes to audio, but for some reason when I get involved with mechanical things I break something on the car, or end up with a new scar haha.
bimmerZ5 10-02-2006, 02:04 AM If you're close to San Diego, I can do it for you. I've done it before. Just PM me if interested. I've got the proper tools too.
If not me, I have a friend in OC that's a member of my club. At our last fix-it day, he had the tools to remove the fan clutch, so I think he can do it too. I don't know if he has time though... works full-time and goes to school too.
BenDF 10-02-2006, 01:30 PM thanks bimmerz5. I will see if I can find a local guy, and if not, I may take a trip out there and stay at my bro's for a weekend or something.
