I am thinking of parting out my TL maybe or sell. Any suggestions??? Wanted to get your guys in put.

Thanks....

 

What made you have this thought?

 

What's wrong with it? Why a part out?

 

the rack n pinon is going out, radiator just got a crack around the top, egr valve needs to be replaced and there is 234k on the car and a/c just stopped working but turns on and off i need a more reliable car sense i now have a baby.

Loved this car but the time has came for me to get rid of it.

 

radiator = $100
rack = used $100
coolant = $30
EGR = junkyard (free.99)

 

How much are you looking to get for the whole car? My cars engine are transmission is in great condition. I am really thinking about swapping it if I find a 3.2 body in good cosmetic condition.

 

x2

 

why get a used rack? Then a used egr they will just end up failing the same as the ones in my car. radiators here are around $120 plus lador for the rack then plus the radiator it would be well over $1000 I have already got quotes. I just not interested in putting another grand into this car cuz it seems like everytime i have work done something elese happens.

I owe 1800 on the car the rims were around $1000, exhaust was $250, intake was $100, stereo was $350. Thats around what i want to get for the car I really dont expect to get anymore then $2000 sense it does need some work I think thats a fair price or $1800.

 

^^ that's what happens when you take it to a shop the always over price... do it your self and you will save alot more.... the prices desired_speeds posted up that's around what your going to spend... Id would save the TL not get rid of it

 

I cant sense i live in a apartment complex i wish i had my old house with the garage cuz i would be working on the car but just cant now were i live. I need a more reliable car now days sense i have a 5 month old son. And im moving to bend oregon after the 1st of the year.the tl wont make that drive.

 

Too each their own guys. We aren't going to win.

 

lol i would love to keep this car but reality is i cant.

thinking about getting this

 

You aren't one to stick with one car for a while are you?

Dead serious.

 

every one has an integra...

 

nope im not specially if the car is going to crap, really has anyone been in my shoes with a baby, medical bills, and supporting my family. then having a car that requires my then i have extra a month to keep it up.

 

Do what you think is best for you.

 

well does anyone want this car for parts or anything

 

Take all of your stuff out, leave it stock and I'll take the whole car for $800. Deal?

 

aci would but i owe 1800

 

Nice car, but two door + baby can be a bit of a hassle. I lived w/ an Integra at the same time as my TL and could not imagine myself, my wife and other kid plus baby in the Teg. I'm sure many have done it, but it would be restricting after coming from a TL.

With 234K miles I'm with you about getting something more reliable, unless you are willing to put some money in for worn items and put aside more money for preventative maintenance to keep it running well.

 

Thanks for understanding "monkeybut". Well my wife is planing on getting a accord in a couple weeks like a 5k from a dealer which will be a 4dr. The teg is just for me to have fun in. I took it to a repair shop for estimates for the front end, radiator, timing belt and brakes/rotors. It was well over 5k!! Which i no i could do all of that for a lot cheaper but i do not have the right tools or a place/time to have the car down that long i use it everyday so it was just not a option for me at all. Even asked if they could set me up with an payment account or something but they said no they need it all after the car is done.

So now I'm here with a car i do love to drive but its just not worth my time any money anymore.

 

Seriously, post some pics up and list of things going wrong/already gone south.

 

List: rack is going out. Motor mounts going out. Egr valve out. A/c turns on and off. Rotors/pads need to be replaced. Big tear in driver side seat. Stealing wheel worn. Back seats are peefect. Tint is bubbling up on back window. That's what I can think of off the top of my head. I'm on my phone right now I can send pics if u would like to a cell or email. It's fast then Photobucket

 

bwallace where are you located.

 

I think somewhere around Chico CA.

 

yeah in chico

 

is that your da? or is it just what u want it to look like?

 

^ Just another in the list of considerations...

~Cheers~

 

Well its what i was looking to buy just have to go pick it up.

I bought a 2002 325i yesterday from a dealer here in Chico for a wedding present for my fiancée.

 

 

what the 325i???? heres the pic





go90go the two cars i said i was going to buy one was sold when i was going to go get it and the other the teg i just have to go down to vacaville to pick it up.

And the tl im giving to my uncle once i get the title in the mail so if anyone does want it then please tell me before i give it to him and i am fixing the radiator and brakes this week. and the egr valve n getting it smog. but once i do get thats stuff fixed the price is going to go up.

 

Damn, third E46 325 sedan these two months... So sad...

~Cheers~

 

What's sad about that?

 

Why u bagging on me go90go. Is it cuz I could not get down to that meet and greet last year sense my fiance has compucations with our baby. Or cuz i dont want to spend 5k on my tl like i was talking to you about awhile back??? U have said two things this whole post and they both have been negative.....

 

And I like that color, better than mine black, looks nice when clean but in about an hour after washing.

 

It's not negative, it's just sad that everyone is leaving this platform. Jesus, both of you need to get your eyes checked, haha.

~Cheers~

 

The way you wrote that had me I'd love to have another 1G is comparable condition to mine(before accident). So classy and sleek lines and unique looks. A lot of people use to ask me what car is it.

 

another one bites the dust...

 

I gave the tl to my uncle sense he has no car.........

Thanks for all the input
