Repair Car Bug? Someone with the same experience?

Happened to me with 2 different cars, on 2 different servers!

So, I was playing Chernarus last night, found a blue van in Berezino. All 4 Tires looked fine to me. So I got inside and started the engine with no problems. But when I wanted to drive, it seemed like 1 front wheel was damaged. The status of the wheels was orange, so I can't exactly say, what was going on.

I took a wheel out of my backpack and I had a toolbox, but when I scrolled over the car, it only gives me the option to repair 3 glasses, all were yellow in the scrollbar. No option for repairing a wheel! So I just shot 1 wheel, to look, if I can repair it now. But only the glass options were given. I tried to relog several times and run away 100m and come back and all that stuff. Nothing

Later on another server, I found a police car. Drove it into a roadsign and BOOM same shit as with the van, but this time 4 yellow glasses. I looked around and found 1 glass, repaired 1, but no chance for an wheel repairing option. So I shot all glasses, to look if theres any difference, but nothing. Still 3 yellow glasses left.

And again, I had a toolbox and a wheel in my inventory

New patch fucked it up? Is there a trick? Am I missing something?

Thanks

Did you.. scroll down a bit ?

I had no problems with fixing.

yes, I scrolled down a bit. About everywhere on the car, I even proned and aimed on the broken wheel, scrolling the mousewheel like hell

I'm having the same problem with an ATV and a huey. Can't repair anything on the huey but glass.the ATV's hull and engine cant be repaired. my ural civil can be repaired fine.

Again, try shooting the wheel you are trying to fix or if its a huey try shooting once at the hull with a pistol or some sort.

Log out log back in. It's a communication error between you (THe Client) and the server im sure... Sometimes if lag does occur it takes awhile to get the full list of damaged items. Also as mentioned shooting said part may change the situation enough that the new packets will be sent possibly being recieved better than the last packets... This is at least my best guess/understanding of your issue.
