Yup, i have a stretched visor strap too.

I dont think the SES light will ever burn out.

Headlights pointed STRAIGHT down, have to drive with brights.

I havent had any break issues in the calipers (power breaks dont like the cc306).

My shifter is still goin strong.

Havent had any issues with my dash.

Thats all i can think of.

well when i open my driver side door, its goes POP, POP then when i close it it POPS once ....
sooo annoying....what else do i have wrong in ym car..o in the rear passenger seats the lil clip hanger so you can hang clothes on or w/e on the passenger side one it wont stay popped in, its all worn out, and when it rains my rear hatch leaks, and water gets all stuck in the bottom of my hatch, need to replace weather stripping i guess....driver side mirror needs to be repainted...other than that i think everything else is fine with my car!!!
lemme think really hard right fast....................still cant figure out what drains my car battery, after a few days....oo on the outside of the car on the rear hatch, you know the lil CORNER things ( guessing weather strips or something) but they are in the shape of a GUN alsmot and they clip on the rear hatch window, only 2 of them..well im missing one and they always seem to comew off very easily.....then on my driver side window switch panel, i had to replace the screw that screws in the door with a bigger screw cause the door got stripped out!!
thats it i belive...

There must be something about the straps on the sunvisors, mine is stretched too. It's tucked up into the mirror. I'm thinking about just cutting it off, cause who uses them anyways.

Got more: floor-boards (haven't fallen through yet ), bumpers (haven't flown off yet ), speedometer, tach, gas gauge (although it tends to drop really fast for some reason; must have to do with the working gas pedal ), odometer, air-bags (haven't deployed), A/C, Fuse box, flap in the trunk, trunk itself.

Later

Well let's face it guys all cars break. I don't care if it's a kia or a F1 car. Were just a bunch of poor bastards that can't afford to have some else fix our problems. So anyone got a match

I've just coem to realize...that atleast all my problems are because of the Suspension on the car...it's a rough ride...and crap vibrates out of place. As long as Everything works properly when I slam the pedal down... I'm satisfied.

For your rear hatch, check the wire that goes from the inside of the trunk to the 3rd rear brake light! Found that the wire wasn't secured properly and was kinda flopping over the stripping when the trunk was closed. Might fix your leak

That sounds like it could be something else.. IF I park facing downward on a hill, only then does water pool enough in the area of that wire to cause leakage. If you park level it shouldn't really happen....
