Post all your annoying things wrong with your car.

[Roland69]

my car fouls the number 1 plug in like 5k miles and its got a terrible high rpm miss. ive replaced everything except the map sensor and i cant figure it out. im not sure if its a bad injector or what. it really pisses me off though

My dads old 91 chev truck did that exact same thing. #1 plug every few months witch would have beed about 5-6000 Km's. When we took the motor out to change it I took it apart to see why and the piston had alot of play in the cylinder.

i got a list

aftermarket harness someone put in the car, the injectors have their own fuse box they put behind the glove box.

i broke my ashtray door, not broke but the spring came off, too lazy to fix it.

the 2 bolts on top of the black guage bezel, the plastic is threads into is broken off so my whole guage bezel sags and rattles

no clutch and brake pedal pads

no map light.

no ac

crappy heater

leaky rear main

leaky water pump

small exhaust leaks from worn header gaskets i think

aftermarket sunroof someone put on the car. Roof is fragile and flexes easily,

also leaks, so when it rains bad the seats get wet.

the fabric on my driver side pulldown mirror has come off, so when i pull the mirror down the fabric falls

no NSS so i dont need a clutch to start the car

right fender mangles on the lip

no fog lights

broken door handle bezels

no turn signals

lights for the fog light switch and etc dont work.

center console arm rest is crappy and sags when u put weight on it.

power mirrors have limited movement

speedo needs replaced or lubed. bounces eratically in cold weather

no gas guage

other than that its rock solid

hmmm...lets see

-Car rattles like a Sumnabitch, tremec 3550???
-no heat, even though it has a new heater core ???
-damn cruise control buttons rattle
-it doesn't have the motor, turbo and stuff I'm going to buy after school in it yet
-my security remote lights only flash when a door is open and not when they're closed....stupid wiring
-my driver side has the gangster lean ....need to take off seat covers and reweld
-damn three hour drive to a car show through salted,wet roads ate the paint off of some of my ground fx

hmmmmmm.....think thats about it

 

[Euphoric306]

ouch foxfan your list sounds worse than mine.

just to let you know, the NSS doesn't control whether the car starts with the clutch out or not, that's the clutch switch, located on the clutch pedal. the NSS is the screw-in connector on the tranny cover plate. replace your clutch switch and you'll be good.

My POS Cervini Stalker bumper cover and nothing else.
What a f####en joke and I paid over $500 for it.

What's wrong with it? I have been contemplating one for a while now. This may sway my decision.

 

[90lxfoxbody]

like Just Bob said - cosmetics. Needs painting. Have the stormin' norman ram air hood and haven't had the opportunity to have it painted yet. good thing my car is white! plus i have all the parts for a major top end rebuild - heads and all - but no time to work on it! ARGH!! and worst of all - the guy two buildings down just converted his little grey Miata into a Monster Miata. Blown 302 in that damn thing. < envy > that bastard. he has more parts than i do. he even had all the body panels adjusted just to accomodate the engine. new fms crate motor woth those new z type heads and everything. that is the main thing woring with my car!!

 

[ALMOST STOCK]

What's wrong with it? I have been contemplating one for a while now. This may sway my decision.

When the Stalker was first installed all the body lines and gap were perfect but after about 3 months one day I noticed that the gap on the Stalker was closing some toward the hood, and then 6 months later the Stalker was actually touching the hood. This was 2 yrs ago and now the Stalker has close up so much that it's actually starting to raise my hood.

If you want to take a look here you can see what I'm talking about.

- o2 sensors are prob done

well when i did the t5 swap, i couldnt find the plug under the dash(that connects to pedals) for the life of me so i said screw it.

I left the screwin thing alone on the t5, i just connected the once from the side of the t5 to the plug under the car from the AOD setup. Works great, i have reverse lights but dont need the clutch, which isnt too bad.

last 3 weeks i have had no clutch cable so when i need to move the car or take it to votech to work on it i can use the starter to get the car moving, i dont thinks its that good for it but it works in a bind.

 

[Black1987Stang]

[mondos90lx]

[Tolbert67]

[bryce93lx]

Wow thanks guys now i feel better about my car, sice i have all the parts to fix what i hate, which would be the mm coil over conversion to replace my S**ty kyb shocks and struts and sagging eibach springs. Then there is the new motor coming this week, but i havent got tho drive it since june, and with the 8,000 bucks i have spent since then to get it back together and running handling good(since my dumbass wrecked it) i am broke as Hell, but loving every minute of it

it does still leak
and the ashtray door is broken

 

[alanw6]

Broken heat core, again! (tube bent in engine install, it split the first time coolant warmed up.
Worn out front bushings causing a "sloppy" front end
The newly re-installed exhaust has to be touching the body, causing some really annoying buzzes/vibration at certain engine speeds.
Needs a front head light kit, stockers are tired.
Trim molding needs freshening up, and hood/door/hatch seals are shot.

That's the short list! LOL

 

[iwashmycar]

the only thing wrong with alan's car is that it isn't mine!

[bdazzgt]

The real question is what isnt wrong with mine, it leaks it makes some ungodly squeekin noises, leaks a few fluids, it viberates, hatch rattles, the interior isnt the greatests the idle hangs at 750-1200rpms whenever it wants to. It is paid for it is american made, is reliable as hell its paid for, and i wouldnt drive anything else.
