I think this is my first tickless summer since I moved here 31 years ago. Got lyme before it was supposed to be here so got late treatment. They just knew it had to be something else. Big bullseye and everything.
Bunch of medical hacks.

Up to 3 yrs ago it wasn't a discussion in the medical field.
#1 question have you been bitten "EVER" by a tick.

I'm very suspicious of this as tick bites have so many different symptoms.

Could it be an excuse for those other bites that they've administered over the past 3 yrs.

Just saying.....

I'm wondering how today will turnout to be.
Yesterday the Honda got a inner tie rod done.
The noise was still there.
Discovered the coil spring in the strut was broken.
The guy that has been doing the wrenching charges me $30 an hour.
Reasonable rate considering the garages are $110+ now.

Hi. Iv had a noise like something loose every time I turn a corner to the right. Had all the front end checked out several times. They cant find anything wrong. Been doing it for 2 1/2 years now. Weird thing is it makes the noise, ok, they put it up on the hoist to check everything. When it comes off of the hoist it takes a few hours driving for the noise to return. So the wheels drop on the hoist and whatever makes the noise driving is moved and when the wheels take the load again slowly the issue kind of resets. Its suggested the strut but they can't find anything wrong doing the usual check. One guy said he thinks the spring is binding as the top of the strut moves. I don't know but its a pain and I loathe doing hard right turns.
Car is a Kia Seltos. Ill see if I can do a video with sound later.

I used to have a car that would do that. It was a bad CV joint at the wheel on the passenger side. The only visual indication of the problem was a crack in the rubber boot around the joint. I replaced the whole axle shaft (easier and cheaper than just the joint at the time) and the problem was solved. I don't know if that applies to your car, just passing it along in case it helps.

Thanks. Yeah they said they were convinced they were ok but did first think it may have been the cv. Its annoying as its still under warranty. Whats the bet they finally find it when it runs out.

A box of them from Goodwill. Tested certified ones go for a small fortune! I'm looking at how to test them... without a plane! Some say Cessna and bendix dated from the late 70's.

Some to hear about the phone being destroyed.

I blew the leaves a couple of days ago.
Just to blow back the ticks.
Getting them regularly now again.
No rain here. Dry.
Maybe this next week, to hard to dig even.

Same here Pepper, dry as a popcorn fart. We haven't seen rain since Hurricane Helene and that was all at once...
