Check Engine Sensor: Aug 1 2007

 Went from the place I go to get my oil changed then hit the dealership to ask about getting the service engine
ligth to be turned off. Guy pops over hooks up the computer. A cylinder misfired once. It was so fast the
computer couldn't tell which one.

July 2007 Engine Flush

Got an oil change yesterday, and an engine flush. Car started pretty bad and the check engine light came one. 
Went inide asked the car guy said that was normal. Car runs good now, but the check engine light is still on.
Checked the oil, but it's so hot and with new oil can't really tell if it's leaking or not. Got to check it out later.

Water Pump July 2007

Well, just keeping tabs on my car. Haven't really needed anything for awhile. 300 bux for a water pump. Hard to believe that they used to be about 40 bux. Oh well, nothing too major yet I guess.

Probs 2

Well got the car into the shop got new belts on and it works pretty good. The vehicle that came into the shop after mine was a van. My dad's looking at it and asks the mechanic how old it is, the mechanic opens the door and reads the VIN 2005, so my dad asks what's wrong with it. Well, let's just say that I now know how to spot a van transporting criminals in this city if I see the passenger side of it. No ariel, could be a weapon, no arm rests potential weapon, of course these vehicles are also used for other purposes so be careful, hehe.
 
As always after all the work was done the mechanic takes me aside and tells me of a future problem. A necessary evil of owning a car something is that it is always on the verge of breaking. With my long problems with owning cars I have yet to have a j spring bar replaced, but next oil change I'll have that honour! Yippee. :(

Revenge Of The Die Nasty

Well, my car was stolen about a month ago. It was recovered three weeks ago. SGI recovered it in the fourth week. I looked at it and thought it was a write off, not because of the damage to the exterior or interior of the car but the black colour in the coolant overfill tank. SGI did their assessment and thought the car could be repaired. They took it to the repair shop who also did an assessment and said my car could be repaired. After fixing the minor stuff the criminals did and the steering column they broke the repair shop is now getting the antifreeze leek assessed again because it's looking a bit more expensive then first thought. My Chrysler Dynasty '88 was taken to the shop about once every two weeks for the antifreeze problem, I got the hoses checked replaced the overfill tank and was wondering what else to do.

I bought a Toyota Echo '02 while I'm waiting for my Die Nasty to either live or die by the hands of SGI. If it lives I have to sell it because I have no space for two cars, so I'm hoping it'll die so I can get money. If I don't get money I might have to just "give it away," which will really suck. It was my best car so far, it gave me the least amount of problems unitl just the beginning of this year and it lasted a good three years. My worst car was a Subaru Justy that lasted like 3 to 6 months someone gave it a hit and run. The best thing that could have happened to it, stupid dealership wouldn't fix the problem of the leaking oil, etc.

I'm hoping this is my first and last Car Saga, but with my luck this'll just keep going.
