what did i do this time...

lol so both my fogs went out, and i suspect that it was the fuses. so i checked them and they were fine. so question one, does it mean it just so happen that both ballbast or bulbs are out?

question 2, the more serious question, when i start my car now the vsa and engine emission light came on, and when i put my card reverse my transmisison feels funny, i hear a clunk and its not as smooth. and when i put it in park the car rocks a little bit. ugh, and the dealer is closed on sunday needa drive on monday to school..

my guess is transmission and not the engine since his clunking and rocking occurs when he shifts gears. ATs can occasionally clunk as it changes gears. it'll be more like a soft thud. it may even occasionally slam into gear if there's a hiccup in the system for some reason. but if the slamming happens all the time, then you have a problem.

LOL I was going to get towed, Instead they were going to put a boot on my car.. But then they couldn't figure out how to do it with out damaging my wheels or how to get under the car i suppose?

Sooo They ended up calling a cop who left a ticket, and a very long note about cosmetic mods being dangerous though not illegal it could cause a lot of issues.. etc etc.. LOL '

Yay for Pentagon police.

Sorry to hear about your problem. From what I recalled, you have less than 15K miles on the odometer, so whatever the problem, it should be repaired under warranty. Hope they gave you courtesy car/ loaner to drive.

Live and Learn.

You mixed the fuses around and unplugged the wrong ones???

Did Acura charged you for the repair/diagnose ?
