I know this is a funny and unique request, but i was wondering if you guys could help me out lol. My cousin is coming from out of town for 3 days, and everytime he is over here he always asks to borrow my car while im at work. I can never say no to him but at the same time i don't want him driving my car because of his known driving habits. I want to temporarily do something to my car to make him think it's not in the condition to be driven. Now im not talking about the car not starting at all because he will be seeing me use it, i just want him to think that the Use should be limited, or else the car will get worse and die on me. Perhaps something that will make it shake, or make the engine or exhaust sound loud, etc. lol. Im guessing pulling a wire or 2 would make this happen. please let me know what i can possibly do to trick him with an easy fix after he leaves. Thanks for the support.

 

pull out the MAF sensor or the fuse for the fuel pump

 

make the check engine light come on and say that it cant be drive or else.

 

now what would that do, make noise or shake?

 

Drive it into a wall... that'll keep your cousin from driving it!!

Or... you could just tell him no...

 

The car wouldn't run without a fuel pump fuse.

 

he is much older than me, so it would be very disrespectful to just say no

 

exactly.

pulling the MAF will make the car sound like it hates you

 

+1 on the fuel pump fuse. it freaked me out even when i was changing my fuel filter and i knew what was going to happen.

 

"I wish I could, but I'm not comfortable with it." If you're not, you're not. If he cant accept that then you really shouldn't be worried about what he thinks in the first place.

 

im asking for car help, i don't need a psychologist. if you can't be helpful, don't post. and where did you even get that quote, i never wrote that haha

 

I meant that's what you say....

Grow a pair dude.

 

You want to temporarily make your car run bad or loud? On purpose? Yeah, that's funny.

 

dont tell me to grow a pair, your from atlanta .... DUDE

 

that sounds too dangerous lol

i remember i had some wiring under the front passengers seat that was cut and it made my whole car shake up until i fixed it for like $35 bucks. do you know what that is?

 

Un plug the Maf, unplug the o2 sensor to trip a cel, un plug a coil, disconnect any sensor under the hood.

Do you really need our help for this?

I simply dont understand how you cant tell the person, you dont want to let them drive you car. Sound rather foolish, and like you have some serious issues, but I dont know the whole story so follow above advice.

 

Hook the horn relay up to the brake lights. Everytime he steps on the brake, HONK.

 

That was a well thought out insult, minus the fact that you cant man up to your own family...

 

why dont you offer to drive them where ever instead of lending your car?

 

Disconnect the battery....
























And "No" means "No"......

 

hes at work..thats y..



leave the car on bricks.....

 

unplug a coil-pack....when youre out of sight of him, replug it :P

 

well read my original, "while im at work". and he doesn't really have bad driving habits, im just being selfish LOL. just don't want relatives to see this side of me haha.

This crap is off topic, and you should really be able to stand up to your own family. No one in my family drives my car except me, and no one seems to have a problem with it, and me and my cousin are very close as well. Be a man, tell him he can't drive your car. Easy as that. Don't lie to him, that's being a bit juvenile.

 

Seriously you would go through all that rather than say "I'm not gonna let you borrow my car"?

 

Dude, grow some ***** and just tell him no.

 

Yea I missed that part the first time, I saw it now.

No wiring under the passenger seat that I can think of that would make the car shake, Only thing under there should be for heated seats and power seats.

Just trip a cel, unplug the o2 sensor in the front of the engine bay, cel will come on, and you'll get bad MPG, plus it will probably smell pretty gassy.

 

Since you've said that twice it seems you already know what you want to do...

 

Just slash your own tires and call it a day.

 

Freddy ...can i borrow your car...?

 

He is from NYC you cant tell him that....

 

At this point, I'm sure you'll be able to get lots of .Org help doing that if you can't do it yourself...

 

roooooofles

 

Only when i'm at work.

 

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAA.....

 

you act like this is some club lmao I asked a question it was answered then you smart guys come in here and go off in a tandum about dumb stuff. I say get back on topic and more of you come in here... Its pointless to argue with you guys lmao grown *** men in here trying to proove a point over the internet. I just find it amazing that people over the age of 25 still do this stuff get a damn life lol...

 

if all else fails....give me the car...



but no seriously..u should be able to just say no...if not..then deal with ur cousin drivng ur car....might sound harsh but its reality
i would suggest not doing anythign to ur car ...might end up messing up somethign and regreting it...
