What a day
Yesterday was an awesome day. lol It started off with hearing my dog in front of my house barking. When I went outside I seen he had encountered the mailman. Its a friendly great dane, normally. Anyways the guy said he got bit on his shoulder. It looked like a scratch. He was mad but only concerned that it had its rabies vaccination. Then I decide to break the Z out of the garage. When I start it up it cranks and cranks but doesnt start, I open the hood and find a sock , plastic bag, and newspaper clippings sitting between the engine and the cold air intake. They've been chewing on the wires that run along the intake manifold. Only one bare wire on each side is actually showing. They just ate the wrapping. I do see some rat sh#t on the plastic underpanel. As of now the car will start but is missing. I took the intakes off and looked around in that area. And also the manifold cover. Im just wondering if there was a wire underneath that could have been chewed on that I wont be able to see without removing the plastic.
I submitted a claim through geico as I heard they will cover such incidents...waiting for a response. :shakes head: |
I suppose rodent infestation is a good argument to drive rather than store your Z all winter. Sorry for the bad day.

That's about a crazy story or day as stated. I'm sorry for you. My girlfriends car had a rats nest in before when I went to change the oil. Pretty crazy. Theres always tomorrow though.:tup:
|
Fun day for you. Good luck with your claim. Maybe set up some rat traps or something.

I officially have a case of the creeps. :eek:

Rodents! They made a nest in my wife's car (she ended up barbequeing one of them), ate through some wiring in the shifter of my parents' subaru, and ate through the strings of my hammock so I fell on my a$$ when I first put it up last summer.
Looks like we could all use a few cats to patrol our cars. |
