1st Check Engine Light came on tonight ...man am i pissed!
the car has about 38k so far and its been bought in feb 2003 but has spent about 7 weeks in the shop. :(
oil changes and all other maintenance done at correct intervals
things already went wrong:
engine vise:
airbag light x2
pvc valve, then the whole intake system (they didnt know what was wrong so they tinkered alot) there was a muffled knocking sound from teh engine (surprisingly there was no cel)
now again i have shaking at idle once in a while (changed fuel brands from esso to sunoco, and its the same) this has been goin on for about a month but is irregular, so i dont think the dealer will say anyhting about it but it could be the reason for the cel
cosmetic:
shifter knob
carpet-complete (im getting thining at areas again...**** in my 89 jetta i didnt even use mats and all it needed once in a while is good vacuming and looked new
glovebox
plus my toyos were worn down by 28k rotations and all (i do not abuse my car, more than the average guy)...fak .....etc...etc
theres other things im missin now but ill rememeber, i wanted to start a notebook with all the history but nevr got around to it...too late
