Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Replaced the Oil Pressure Sensor & ordered a new Throttle Body.

Yesterday I installed front and rear GM Performance W-Body Sway Bars that I got from the W-Body Store, and today I drove it around to test them out some more. I'm quite happy with the results; it handles better, they were fairly easy to install, and I haven't seen any negative side-effects (I figured bumps on one wheel at a time would be more intense) yet.

Went to my parents yesterday.
They made me some food to take home.
Long story short, a soda exploded in the racekar. Damn weather!!! -8*

Just took it for a drive to get some grub. Got an awesome msg on the DIC "Turn A/C off to protect engine"

man ive gotten some wierd ones before too, and nothing brings up a code or nothing. But then again any problem ive had has boiled down to bad wire/connection.

Don't think the motor is bad, since it goes down just fine, and it was going up just fine until I attempted the fix. I think I may have put it back on a little bit off center and so it's grabbing somewhere. The squeak is coming from the slides, not the glass or motor. When the window is removed, it's still squeaking. But all the sticking probably isn't helping the motor either, as I had to push the window up this morning. Have to get it fixed by Friday when rain is in the forecast. I don't want to be delivering papers with the window down most of the time. I can deal with the squeak.

Tossed around the idea of getting rid of it come summer. I'm torn, Idk what to do.

Getting rid of the GP?!

You can't do that!

But why? I must ask.

Don't dont it! Weigh your options.

Agreed sort of. But unless your making payments id keep both I imagine there's not to many people who have payments on a 10+ year old car.

Haha. Won't be a g8 or a gto. I found a trailblazer ltz I really want. Ive always wanted one, so maybe one of those. Most likely a suv of some type.
Just gotta see how money flow is then. It's just so nice not having a car payment, I don't want to have another one. Time will tell.
As of today, car needs about $500 in parts. Oh joy.

Oh believe me, if I could afford a ss, I would have one.

I'm experiencing tons of misfire, probably why the engine is running hot, and no codes for it. Only a code P0121, For a bad TPS.

Unfortunately I haven't had time to check to see if the plugs are fouled. The TB was only $143 from RockAuto though.

That's pretty cheap. Hopefully its as simple as a fouled plug. I've got a set of ngk tr6ix's I'm gonna pit in...its one spark range cooler and everyone on gmls4 says the engine loves em better
