[22:18] AdmFubar it relates to the users and now the new owner [22:21] DaemonFC Let's see if the car gets better gas mileage with the new wheel bearings. [22:21] DaemonFC I noticed my gas mileage went way up on the Impala after changing out the front wheel bearings. [22:22] DaemonFC It's odd to have a bearing completely seize up with 55,000 miles on it, unless it's BMW, but the car is 14 years old. [22:22] DaemonFC Some of those parts just age and crap out as well even if you're not driving it. [22:22] DaemonFC They're a sealed bearing with grease in them, and if the seal gets damaged then eventually the grease dries up and it doesn't want to turn very well. [22:23] AdmFubar depends on how well maintained the car is.. if it didn't get a regular lubing it will fail sooner [22:25] DaemonFC They're sealed. [22:26] DaemonFC They're non-serviceable. You replace the entire hub. [22:26] DaemonFC When you do that, you get everything. The hub, the bearings, a new ABS sensor. [22:26] DaemonFC By being non-serviceable, they're actually more reliable. [22:27] *tpmd (~tpm@qbeewnuez7vaq.irc) has left #techrights [22:27] DaemonFC Failure means replacing the whole part, but you don't have to rely on some guy who is servicing your car remembering to grease all of the fittings every time you're in for an oil change. [22:28] DaemonFC Maintaining a car used to be a lot more work because the owner's manual would say like, grease all fittings every 3,000 miles, and then people would take their car to fucking Walmart.

[22:29] DaemonFC Even the 2003 Impala came with tie rod ends and stuff you needed to grease. [22:29] DaemonFC But later, I upgraded to the ones that are factory-sealed.

[23:08] DaemonFC Women go in there and they're all like ooh and ahhhhhh and then they don't even think about how well the car will hold up, so it's not even a design goal at the factory anymore. [23:08] DaemonFC GM used to do an amazing warranty. Just amazing. [23:09] DaemonFC And because the warranty went on so long (better than anything in the market back then) they kind of didn't want to get the car back in over and over at their expense to repair it at the dealerships. [23:10] DaemonFC Then someone had the idea. "Hey, let's just make these things out of aluminum and plastic, and put a lot of terrible software in there, and lots of buttons, and cut the warranty down to where it's over with while the car still smells new and we don't have to fix any of it!". [23:10] DaemonFC And then someone in the executive board room says "That's crazy, nobody will go for that!". [23:11] DaemonFC And then the first guy says, "But wait....What if we did everything I just mentioned and TRIPLE the price!".

[23:12] DaemonFC So that's basically where GM went. [23:12] DaemonFC At least that's how I picture it. [23:13] DaemonFC Then KIA came in and started bragging about their 10 year powertrain warranty, and that's fantastic, you know, except that it's not what it sounds like. [23:13] DaemonFC People who have actually used it complain that KIA dealers do whatever the cheapest thing possible is. [23:14] DaemonFC Your engine breaks down?
