my monthly list of things wrong with my car

gosh :o

1. tranny still acting retarded (shaking)

2. when i put it into gear, loud popping noises come from the tranny.

3. there is a big ass hole in the middle of my exhaust pipe where a resonator lost a hanger. the noise it makes now is unbearable.

4. rear shocks are starting to make noises again after i had them replaced

5. there is a nail in my rear right side tire. (thank god i put my stock wheels/tires back on like 2 days ago!.. maybe thats a bad thing tho since stock tires cost more than a damn 18 inch falken )

6. just found a new chip in my hood

thats all i can think of right now, im sure if i go for a ride i can think of more stuff tho.
im so depressed!

I really hope the new 04 has these things taken care of. I was also hoping for an AWD version.

I don't get hoe you guys can have so many problems with your car. My only complaint right now is that I haven't had enough time to give my baby the proper detailing she needs...she's so filthy! I have no time during the day - it gets dark so early now, and anytime I seem to have a free second it starts to rain!!! I'm gunna try to at least clean her inside when I get home from work tonight - if all else fails, I'll have to hit up the car wash (although I'd so much rather do it myself!)

I think you guys have to take it easy with your TLs...be a lil' more careful, don't beat the sh** outta them, and be quite careful where you park!

If you need any other pointers I'll b happy to help!

I gave up parking in remote spots after the 4th rock bashed my hood on the highway. And then when the giant black bear ran a head first kamikaze mission into the right side of the car...i just gave up on the outside. It still looks good detailed. I feel bad for the bear, he must have had one hell of a headache!!! I never fixed it cause as soon as I do it will just happen again (well maybe not a bear but deer)

my monthly list of things wrong with my car
1 (and only): Needs to be washed

It's rainy today and the car looks like crap. It is supposed to clear up by Sunday so I'll clean her up just in time for it to drop into the 50's Sunday night!

Woo hoo! Fall is here and the track awaits!

Hello Kate:

Just wait tell you get about 25K if you haven't already, and see what rattles or if the Tranny tries to go poopie on you. A lot of the tranny and other issues are design flaws, not because a lot of people here like to beat the piss out of their cars.
