#117010, "RE: Ever break something right after you get something new for your car?" In response to In response to 3
Well... OK. I got ass raped on the price of mine 10 months ago, because i financed it. got it home, and the check engine light came on... i was like.. wtf... so i go out the next morning, drive it all day, finally, right before i pull into the place i got it from, the fucking light went off... i was mad... it has since never come on again (though it does when i first start the car, bulb isnt blown) but, after driving the car for a week... i notice this smell of oil... so i look under, and see it looks like the oil pan was hit with a boulder, and there is oil everywhere. so, i go to tighten it up, and the bolts were so loose, i could slide the pan up and down a lil. i fixed it, replaced all the oil... and thought all was good. Drove fine for a few months, but as soon as summer was over and it started getting cold, you start it, and it sounds like a damn diesel truck. i know its a spun bearing or something horrible. thankfully it didnt blow up before i was able to buy a new motor. but knowing my luck its going to seize up on me or something like 5 days before the new motor gets here, and the 'clipse is my DD. i'm just praying now i dont break the new stuff, and the old shit hold out untill the new stuff gets here.
** Current status: 9 bent valves. and it only had 6,000 miles on it. i hope the replacement goes well. **
Lots of expensive parts, and still slow! Oh wait, it has to run to go fast.
