someone please offer me words of encouragement before i sell my camaro and get a honda! (j/k)
seriously though within the last 2 weeks i have had to buy new front rotors/pads... currently i am living with the squeeling (forgot to put anti squeel compund ) and pulsating warped rotors in the back every time i apply the brakes
had to replace my perfectly charged batterly becuse the positive terminal got coroded off
now i have a horible misfiring problem
ahhhhhhhhhhh!

 

what did you expected? is a car. they ALL need maintenance; and, correct me if I'm wrong, the parts/labor for imports cost more.

 

just a little fed up thats all, dont get me wrong i love my f bod
i mean ive spend close to $1000 in the last month

 

DANG that's a little bit in the high side... I guess you thought it wasn't worth it...

 

Your brakes were normal wear-and-tear maintenance. The battery...well, stuff happens.

Trust me...


...it could be a lot WORSE.

 

Yup, wear and tear. I have lots of it. I have a had a few big items to fix but I am constantly fixing little things.

 

Hey, atleast it has nothing to do with your motor

 

do yourself a favor. Make a list of everything that needs fixing on your car. Beside that make a list of everything you want to add to your car. (ie. Seats need redone-----Corbeau Racing seats) now look up the price of each and do what you really think is best. Don't nickle and dime yourself to death, then a week later think Man for a few dollars more I could have tweaked it a lil more, upgraded to a..... and ......you get the picture.

 

joed4640 - It's prefectly normal to feel the way you do. But, it could be so much worse. My fiance's Firebird has MAJOR problems.

1.) Won't start but about once every three tries.
2.) Blown coil (HORRIBLE misfire)
3.) 2 Burned wires (We think some of the plugs are fouled as well)
4.) Her electrical motors in her headlights and antenna are blown.

We've had her car in for 3 months at a dealership and when it came back out the mechanic pulled us aside and these were his exact words: "Sir, your fiance's car has serious problems. I haven't been able to track down the root problem though.......If it was my car sir, I would just trade it in and wipe my hands of the whole thing. I'm sorry." So, it could be a lot worse! Enjoy your car, even if it does act up some times. And, hey, even if it does act up, you have all of us here at CZ28.com to vent to. Good luck with the car, I hope you feel better about it soon!

 

Get a ooogah horn. Best $29.99 I ever spent.
