Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

Think I need an ignition switch. Heater and headlights randomly work sometimes. Think I need an alignment, my steering wheel is a lil sideways. Also my wife's 02GT needs brake lines, I think. I've toped up the master cilinder twice in 3 weeks and that's defiantly getting fixed this week.
 


Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

Trans is dead due to forward band being broke ( f***ing 01's) and has been down for way to long!
Plans- complete rebuild,300m shaft,hardened 4th,transgo shift kit,new tq converter (stock stall) plus all the other upgrades to the valve body.

Body work-shaved front and rear bumpers,due to both are going through the notorious clear coat peel.

All of this will be done as soon as my little 1yr old gremlin stops taking all of my money...lol,i swear everytime she touches water she grows another inch.
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

It's messy inside. I'll clean it this weekend. Beyond that, there's no issue that can't be fixed by turning up the radio or filling the tank. :cool:
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

In no particular order:

Cruise control hasn't worked since about two days after I bought the dang thing.

ABS/TCS lights came on as soon as I installed an A/C compressor. I think I crushed a wire while reinstalling my too-big battery. Electrical tape covers up those lights nicely.

One of the fog lights is out, I haven't gotten around to fixing it yet. Probably just a bulb.

I've got the typical rocker panel/rear strut tower issues. Going to have to cut and weld patches onto them probably next spring.

Sunroof leaks when I park downhill and it rains heavily. Probably a clogged drain line or headliner acting dumb. I haven't had a chance to take that apart yet.

All four struts are worse than useless. I only go fast in straight lines. Probably a spring 2014 project.
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

my front brakes squeal and everything looks perfect when i take them apart. it's ****ing annoying.
 


Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

Trans line leaks a little when the car is turned off (Bill has told me how to fix this), rattle in the rear somewhere is causing the driver side rear tire to wear funny, 4 DTC's that need to go away, alignment needed, and need to fix the bulbs in the radio (might put in an aux port while I have the head unit out. I think that is all......for now
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

i've literally never bedded a set of pads ever.
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

Needs an alignment. A new trans mount. Has some rust starting on top of the driver's side rocker, yet it is not bad underneath... lol. Some cute little bubbles near the gas tank. Few small dents. It's been through a lot lol. Oh, and the a/c doesn't work!
 
Re: The "Whats Wrong With Your Car Thread" Post Your Issues Here

need to flush out the cooling system as i found dex sludge in my radiator and reservoir tank. whats weird is only green coolant came out when i took my plastic elbows off to do my power steering pump... TWICE (GRR) but it seems like its filled with dex in the rad *shrug*
pinhole leak in the hose from rad to reservoir tank.
would like to change the s/c oil.
new air filter as mine is beyond help.
reconnect the wires to one of the knock sensors- the one by the ps pump. whoever is the genius that decided to tangle those wires up with the ps pump lines theres a special place in hell for you.
new tire because one has a flat spot and its annoying- will probably wait till summer2014 and just get 4 new tires.
