What did you do to your Ranger today?

[AzScorpion]

Had the oil changed. MP1 already has just over 1,400 miles and I always change the oil on a new vehicle around 1,000-1,500 miles. Plus we're leave in a week so I wanted it changed for that and I have them go through the whole truck. Even though it's new it doesn't mean it's perfect but luckily it got a clean bill of health. ??‍

Shop apparently overextended the left axle and the boot came loose. Could hear a noise on my way home from work today, would speed up as I sped up and slow down as I slowed down. I stopped and looked but didn't see anything. After dinner I drive across town to the Post Office and it's really loud, stop again and look and I can see the boot is loose from the diff side. Doesn't appear to be torn. Waiting on AAA to tow it to back to the shop.

Inner CV blowed up. Need new axle. Which won’t be until next week since no one has one.

One thing he did say was they moved the oil filter to the far back corner on the left (drivers) side. He said it took them a while to find it and it's a real PITA to get to now. Wasn't it always right behind the passengers tire? Anyone know the reason for this?

Mine is on the driver's side.

Plot thickens. I notice a splash of grease and CV bearings in the gutter at my house where I backed it over the curb into the yard the other day in 4wd so as not to tear up the grass. Still gotta think something wasn’t right because backing over a curb at barely above idle shouldn’t blow up a CV.

That was the only thing! LOL

Hang in there friend! Weekend is (almost) here.

Dave! You mean to say you didn’t know where your oil filter was. Shame on you, should take away your moderators title. On the 5G it has always been behind the drivers front wheel toward the back of the engine. It has never been on the passenger side. Maybe in the UK. Maybe you need to check for a better place to get your oil changed.

He's BANNED!

Parked it under a tree. Tree branch decided to take some paint off the roof.
Even put a deep scratch in my windshield.

Haha... *Sigh*

I thought I read on here it was behind the passengers side but alas I was wrong.

I haven't changed my oil in over 10 years. For $65.00 for a full synthetic and a tire rotation it's not worth the hassle. Especially in 100* heat.

It wouldn't let me add it as a gif so I had to convert it to a JPG.
