Needless to say I'm pissed - I got this from a car yard dealer, just getting a quote on what this is to fix.. maybe covered by mechanical warranty Basically, the cambelt has been done recently, whoever did it fucked this bearing cap and silicone'd it back together.. it was only a matter of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennyfvholla Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 My front bumper fell off and I ran it over..... The stupid zip ties broke. They were cheap and half of them broke when I put the bumper back on last. So, I'm not entirely surprised they broke with the cold and all the ice. Just spent the last 2 hours freezing my ass off in the dark putting it back on with better zip ties. Ruined my nice new jeans I just got. My hands are still numb as hell. I hate this car. I have the absolute worst luck with this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennyfvholla Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yeah, this after someone hit me in the parking lot a couple of weeks ago. I didn't know it happened because I went outside when it was dark. Right? I heard a thunk while I was driving and when I got out I found the drivers side corner lamp hanging by the wiring. Both tabs were broken. You know who/what hit me? Asians in a prius..... Did they stick around? No. The people next door to where I work saw the whole thing. The damn people sat there for 10 minutes and then drove away. And not one single person decided to get the license plate off the freaking prius! My luck......

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Your car is evil but I had a car like that once. It was a 1996 Ford Windstar. 3 transmissions & a cylinder head replacement (V6). I junked that son of a bitch & never looked back. Best $200 I ever made out of rage imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stasis Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 If you found an oil leak then rest assured, everything is normal, lol. Sorry to hear it though. Checked properly with help from someone on clubsub, not a single oil leak gearbox seal has gone splat. Waiting for new seals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mailman Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Thermostat went out towards the end of my route. It's replaced but I found that my plastic radiator hose connections and drain stopcock are fubar'd. Looking now to see if I can just replace those parts but I doubt it. Time for an upgrade? Also, my chilton's book said the thermostat is on top, somewhere under the intake manifold. Essentially in the opposite spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyfvholla Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 lol I will eventually have a spare radiator if you want it on top of those suspension parts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Grrrrr. I really think this car is trying to f**k with my brain. I come outside after about 10mins of letting it warm up & the tapping goes away. I rev the engine & the tapping is now nowhere to be found. I'm going to make 2 videos, one of a cold start & one of a warm start. I REALLY need to know what that tapping noise is because its driving me crazy!

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Found out what the rapping is all about. Apparently, the heads are chatty in cold weather during startup. 174k heads will get like that, I guess. The fact that Im using 10w-30 T6 w/Lucas oil may help the matter.
