    Do timing chains need to be replaced on a 3.7l v6, and what happens if they're not?

    thank you all for the feedback, I have a clear idea of my options now

    Do timing chains need to be replaced on a 3.7l v6, and what happens if they're not?

    should the guides/tensioners be replaced at certain intervals and would they also make a lot of noise when they're about to go?

    Do timing chains need to be replaced on a 3.7l v6, and what happens if they're not?

    Coming up on 200k miles, assumed the PO did it at 100k miles, he said it wasn't necessary since they're so durable. Is this true? and what happens if/when one of the chains take a dump, is it CEF (catastrophic engine failure) or just non-running, pull over, tow-to-shop, and then get it done?

    Is running over curbs compromising the seal of my tires?

    that argument can be made but unleashed had the benefit of both being a compilation album as well as the crowd adding to the energy of the tracks

    String wind blew door open and now it scrapes the front when opening or closing

    thank you all for the recommendations, I haven't had a chance to tackle the project yet but I will at some point

    Is running over curbs compromising the seal of my tires?

    I'm constantly running over curbs when I turn corners. Is this placing stress on my tire seals and will cause them to leak eventually?

    My 3.7 is burning 3 qts every 10k miles, should I bother w oil changes?

    I have a 3.7L v6 w 196k miles on it. Takes 5 quarts of 5w30 I buy the 20k oil but I change it every 10k or less. It consumes 3 quarts every 10k miles. At that rate of adding oil, should I even bother with oil changes since a new quart is coming in every 3k miles?

    String wind blew door open and now it scrapes the front when opening or closing

    the door was partially open, the wind blew it all the way open hard. now there is no longer the slight gap between the front quarter panel and the door. when I open and close the door the scrapes the front panel, anyone experience this and was able to fix it? The picture with the antenna showing...

    Has anyone performed an engine relocation?

    Putting up and removing sand bags everytime the weather gets bad isn't a good option since I have a bulging disc. The rear engine is probably more work than I want to do

    Has anyone performed an engine relocation?

    2006 3.7 Regular Cab 6' bed, RWD The RWD is the issue in bad weather since I don't keep anything heavy back there. BUT Is it possible (anything's possible but within a reasonable amount of work) to relocate the engine to the back right above the rear wheels, like on a 911? I know Smyth used to...

    I used a small tire plug but shoudda used a big one (VW Tiguan)

    pulled out a screw, stuck in a tire plug. tire still has a slow (albeit much slower) leak. I think I may have skrewed up, I don't supposed I can force a big plug through the smaller one?

    Losing over 1qt oil every 10 days

    I've been tracking this as best I can, given logistics but I miscalculated in my initial post, it's more like 1.5 quarts every 2,000 mi or thereabouts. everything seems dry including under the hood
