...Not even a full 24 hours after I scheduled Tucker’s bearing repair, the left front bearing decides it wants in on the action.

I guess it’s true what they say, once a German car runs out of warranty, it will always be broken! lol

For reference, the right front bearing started going a week after I repaired the exhaust, which started going a week after I replaced a dead fuse, which died right after I fixed the cat heat shield. lol

Welp, back to RockAuto I go!!

Have a screenshot of Cyanogenmod on my Nexus 5X for your time. :)

This is why they always say to replace these sorts of things in pairs. Unless there is a problem they should wear out at the same time.

On the plus side, this does mean that you don’t have anything (suspension) causing uneven wear!

Build a wall to keep the bad bearings out and make Germany pay for it.
