Re: What cars have you owned and what problems have they had?
1990 Mustang 5.0
-5th gear would grind on a powershift
(120k miles)
1994 Formula 6 speed
-shitty distribution block installed by previous owner caused it to short itself out randomly while driving and cut off. Would have to pull over and wiggle the wires to get it to start back up.
-tranny started popping out of 2nd gear on a downshift (120k miles)
2005 SRT4
-wiring harness had a short in it, leaving me stranded twice before the dealer fixed it (15k miles)
-overboost CEL because I did the spring mod on the wastegate for more boost. Not really a problem, just an information light. 20+psi will do that
1989 Mustang GT
-overly magnetic front end attracted to guardrails at VIR
-transmission difficult to shift, grinds 2nd gear
-burns a little oil
-03 cobra front control arms actually rotate forward and backwards under braking. Sweet bushings, ford.
-rear end clunk randomly. dunno what it was
-floorpan sagging
-exhaust rattled against car.
-being a general POS
1990 Mazda Miata #1
-rod knock because I didnt check the oil for 12k miles while owning it.
-Paid $1000 for the car. Put $1200 in suspension/wheels/tires on the car. spun a bearing in the motor. Sold for $1800.
1993 Ford Escort LX
- car randomly died on me after 1 year and 15k miles of driving. I paid $600 for it. I was glad to get a years worth of trouble free driving, so I junked it.
1991 Jeep Cherokee
-would overheat on hot days on the highway with the AC on. Fix? Let the tempurature get hot, fuck it. Sold this for $600 more than I paid for it.
1999 Honda Civic hatchback
- CEL for something.
- Airbag light on because of CTR wheel
- Smoked a little at high RPM (150k b18b)
2001 Audi A4
- CEL on for mass air sensor
- LCD screen missing lines
1990 Mazda Miata #2
-primer/bondo on drivers side
-needs 70 more hp so stock scion XB's will not have to lift for me to pass even after I come through turn 10 at 20mph faster than they are
-car needs to be driven at FULL TIME ATTACK!!! constantly.
2005 Nissan Titan
-nothing yet :crosses fingers:
