I hate that this is my first post on autopia. I just got a car worthy of the expense of a PC and did quite a bit of research on this site to come up with a plan.
I bought a PC last week on autogeek (they do have good service) and it arrived on Friday afternoon (just in time for the weekend). After a good wash and dry, I started using the RO with KAIO and a CCS Orange 6.5" pad. I got the hood and front left fender when things went bad.
The PC started shaking like the counterweight was out of wack, so I stopped the work to see what was happening. Just after I took the PC off the car, the whole center spindle section with my pad fell off the PC and landed on the ground. After trying to see what went wrong, I found the whole that houses the spindle retaining bolt has stripped out. The PC is now worthless.
Has anyone else had problems like this? I have no idea what I might have done wrong or if this is just a anomaly. Being new to this, I`m a bit confused.
