most repairs in a small amout of time
Since I got the car from my brother about 2 months ago ive been running into a million problems each week. Let me run down what I have repaired so far in 2 months.
-New atenna mast (some stupid kid ran into it)
-Kenwood headunit decided not to show graphics (got that replaced but still paid money)
-Alternator started to make some noises it was going dead.. (replaced that with a core exchange)
-Replaced both belts
-Got a whole new radiator support because mine rotted out (wasnt cheap either)
-Rear engine mount was busted (got that replaced)
-All underbody rust was sanded and sealed with rust spray
(nothing bad, but still since it was up in the air ehh why not fix it)
-Leaking tranny fluid from the drivers side CV shaft right where it enters in the tranny. (Got that done this week)
-Door lights dont work ALL due to a bad ground. My teacher will attempt to fix this on tuesday.
-Cruise control doesnt enable, I can press the button a million times it wont set.
Other than that I spent $500 in labor. I got a bad passenger side wheel bearing, the same issue that a lot of other maxima owners have, I need to get that repaired. My passenger side steering arm boot has ripped.. idk if thats important to repair. Other than that I just got new tranny fluid in, I change the oil at 2,500 miles. I use one quart of Lucas stuff and the rest moblie superflo oil. My car is always clean and spotless, you cant tell if its on its that quite and smooth. Basically I need this car to last me for a long time. Hopefully it will. Im currently almost at 102,000. Its a 95 5-speed. So I hope im not the only one that has ran into a million issues in 2 months. Tell me your story.
