What needs to be fixed on your car right now?

Mine (1995 GXE auto with 155000 miles) needs:

knock sensor
rear window regulator
hood struts
finish removing black vinyl from door pillars
new switches in console
interior fuse panel door
front floor mats
left C-pillar interior trim
lights in hazard and rear defrost switches
wiper blades
at least 10 major dents and dings
new paint
radar detector mount
coolant recovery resevoir
console lid latch
transmission rebuild

That's just the crap that needs to be fixed or replaced, no wonder I have no money for mods...

 

Sell some of that Bling Bling.

 

1)Cruise Control
2)Reverse Lights
3)Cig Lighter
4)Intake

...and I think my AC is f#cked up..it has been making noise off and on while the AC is on...it never did it before..sounds like water piping in a house. I can't find a blown fuse for my cig lighter so I donno why it isn't working, and my popcharger is connected to my mid-pipe by 1 bolt...it's a damn generic adapter..I guess I need to drill sommore holes in that 'peice.

 

Dents on every door, roof, and 1 fender
New paint on the outside and door jambs

-Cyrus

 

I just need a new knock sensor, oh and I also think I need new Leather seats (leatherseats.com), and my struts and shocks feel like their going soon so I guess I need some sprint springs, and KYB AGX shocks. I also need a new air filter so may as well spring for a Frankencar w/Apexi filter also!

 

I got my whole car un-dented for $179 at dent wizard in June becuase they gave me a birthday special . They did a superb job..it would probubly cost around $250 for you to get your car undented @ dent wizard. (not including roof)

 

Birthday special? My birthday is in 5 days I want a special deal! And do you have an idea of how much the roof would run? And they didn't have to drill and plug any holes did they?

MY MAF SENSOR

 

4 dents, and fortunately for me:

1 is on the roof (hail)
1 is on the driver door
1 is on the passenger door
1 is on the hood (hail)

I'm waiting until the end of winter to get them banged out.
I also need to change the engine oil and transmission fluid. Amsoil and Redline, take my money $$$$.

My variable intake that I am working on right now

 

• sunroof tilts but doesnt slide
• driver side taillight cracked
• small dents all around and 1 scratch
• left rear shock sounds loose
• passenger stillen side skirt needs to be re-attached better near the rear tire

 

Well, the woman who gave me my estamate was really nice and gave me the discount. I doubt it's a storewide policy, just a deal down here. If you drive down here to Winter Park FLA they will hook you up

Absolutely no drills! They took out my door panels and smoothed/heated them from the inside out. The rear part of my car costed a little more because it was harder to access (trunk) RPMaxima who lives close to me had his done for his birthday a month after me, and got a discount too I think. PM him if you want more proof of the good job of Dent Wizard.

For the roof, I'd guess they'd have to take apart the top of your interior. It will be more expensive then the doors. The doors are the easiest and cheapest of them all.

 

- front struts
- possibly other small front suspension parts
- muffler, possibly other exhaust piping
- door trim has some wear on it - don't care
- rear drivers side door has two non-paint-effected dings from some drunken teenagers deciding to play WWF against it, partially repaired - dont really care
- need something under my alpine for the gap
- need to look at the brakes
- clutch sometime in the forseeable future - dont care, yet.
- have seen a miniscule hole or three in the leather - don't care


The only money I ever see going into this car besides the normal monthly payment is to fix the things I actually care about. At 21 with rent, bills, and all that other fun stuff, modding a car with 95k on it doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

 

1) Several dents and depressions all around the car
2) brake pads
3) Spark plugs
4) TB cleaning
5) fuel filter
6) New muffler
8) i probably need a new knock sensor

 

-dents on doors, c pillar(outside)
-paint chips
-rusting paint chips
-broken center a/c vent
-failing bose radio
-almost dead hood struts
-broken spark plug coil pack
-rust in sunroof area
-nail in patched tire
-rear shocks fading
-tranny needs flushing
-bumper doesnt fit right
-interior color fading
-new front mats
-Scratches on every area of the car
-rim scratched to hell

 

Transmission will stick in reverse if going over 5 MPH
Wheel hop
Repainted front and rear bumpers
One rim is bent/tires need rebalancing/rims need new tires
Exhaust sounds like crap when car is first started
Car hesistates when cranking starter motor
Oh yea and my car probably qualifies for the alternator recall

 

hood strut thats it...

 

ah ,let's see

Battery tray fitment needs to be fixed(Place Racing CAI )
New Ground wire for system(Place Racing CAI )

Other than that, I'm good to go

Does being slow count as something that needs to be fixed?

 

cv boot
ebrake cables [edit - fixed]
struts [in the mail]
engine coolant temp. sensor [edit - fixed]
hopefully that's it...sick of spending $$...giving up on big money mods for a while i think.

 

what a piece of sh*t.... haha im joking, but not really
mine is at 170,000 as of today.. what it needs is the driver heated seat switch light.. i LOVE the car

 

Well what do you expect when you beat the **** out of your car?!?! well I need two new doors. New front and rear bumper. 2k tail lights. dents and scratches everywhere. MAF Sensor..and a ****load more.

 

-Need new hood shocks. But I can live without them, I just hold up the hood with a golf club.
-Need to replace actuator on drivers side door.

 

Inner tie rod (yes, the inner not the outer)
2 tires
Stupid stock Clarion (non bose) Cd player skipping badly (when I drive over botts dots ).

Other than that my car is pretty trouble-free.

 

1) Front struts
2) Parking brake cable
3) New rotors all the way around

 

*New tires
*Need to change my springs. (Damn Intrax)
*Alignment
*Paint my front lip over
*Interior

 

Heated seat switch lites
Hood Struts
Dents and pit marks all over the friggen place
RUST!!! On the trunk lid and doors

Other than that should be good to go.
For now at least

 

-Rear Heated O2 Sensor (Not sure if it needs to be replaced or not)
-Knock Sensor (Possibly, but I'm not 100% sure)
-New Brakes (soon)
-60K Service needs to be done
-Push-open Coin Holder/Ash Tray (Needs to be replaced)
-Dings in Hood, Roof, and on Passenger Side
-Front Bumper & Grille Repaint (Stupid Mesh Grille)

Right now I'm at 62,100 miles. I better get on that 60K service ASAP.

Now I'm depressed because I have to fix all of this and I can't buy more mods.

Later,
-Nick
