need help please
Ok guys needs some recommendations. Just got my car a week ago and driving a couple days ago car shredded a belt so it went into limp mode about 5 miles to the dealer. Car previously had the harmonic balancer bolt replaced with an arp bolt. Not sure if it was installed incorrectly or not but it won’t stay tight. So it needs to be replaced. No coolant in the dip stick or the back of the oil cap but is some in the coolant overflow. Won’t know if or how much damage til balancer and bolt are replaced. Dealer can get that done for about 1000. I’m stationed in Jacksonville NC. Any good shops around here to take to it any recommendation what to do would be great. — looking for recommendations.

I hate to tell you, when these car break, they are expensive to get repaired.
I don't know your year, but harmonic balance has always been problem.
Good luck on the repairs.

Haven't heard anything bad about Mayhem in Raleigh over the years, and if saplumr's recommending it, there's good reason to at least talk with them.
You may not know there's a way on here to do an "advanced search." Here's what popped up for the next time you need some info.
