the reason i am bringing this up is because i have been in Socal for over a month and a half now (new job requires me to travel across US [electrician]).
almost every other fucking car i have seen has black or smoked taillights...the biggest pieces of shit and 100000% stock cars even have black tails...cmon what the fuck!? after seeing this shit so much out here now i realize this shit is old and RICE
first mod to my car when i get home is new tails (non smoked) and i am getting my tint fixed so cops dont have a reason to pull me over...
gonna end up getting a new car after the new year probably...hope it lasts til then lol....i do however need new front CV joints once i am back home...$300 for parts/labor
hey hey hey none of that now lol. sorry guys but been crazy busy in my life right now. huge life changing experience w/ me within the last week! new job, fucking a shit ton more money than i was making at shitty best buy. i am in georgia right now til monday, i go to michigan for a week, then cali for about 2 weeks
i am doing electrical contracting for my girlfriend's dad's company. making just about 9x what i was making at best buy.
my car is sitting outside my condo now. it hasn't had this problem at all. my friend drove it 1 day too and said he didnt have to pump it so i guess maybe some air got in the line but its all good now.
i will be selling the car sometime mid next year though once i get all my bills settled (a lot quicker w/ the new job!)
this happened to me JUST today about 20 mins ago. came home and as i was pulling in my gate, my car would not go into 1st gear while i was at idle. i left off the clutch, messed w/ shifter a little and then it went into 1st.
i put it in reverse to park and as i'm letting off the gas and clutch, the car keeps moving by itself!? wtf? yes, as i was letting off the clutch and my foot NOT on the gas, the car was moving. i could NOT get the car out of reverse no matter how hard i tried! i ended up stalling the car. after that i messed w/ the shifter again and eventually got it out of reverse. i noticed that i have to put my clutch pedal a lot farther than normal.
i test drove it again in my parking lot after this and it went into 1st, 2nd and 3rd fine. i pulled in a spot, reversed, and again, i could not get it out of reverse!....i finally parked the car and went back out again just now to see if anything...i am able to push the clutch pedal all the way to the floor and it seems there is no pressure on the pedal. is my clutch completely gone or is there something else? i can't really check it out as all my tools are at work and if i can't drive it to work, well, this fucking blows and i am so tight on money right now.
could something possibly have gotten wet? we've gotten a lot of rain in florida over the past 24 hours and my car has been wet the whole time.
please help if you have any idea what this could be. i'm really hoping my clutch isn't gone!
since I want my car somewhat legal, the black led tails have to go asap.
Now I'm in a dilemma...i either want to get the same tails I have now (non tinted) or the stock OEM tails but spray the center red so the whole thing matches
it's all good fellas. had a friend use a dealer authorized carfax (more details than a customer carfax) and my title is 100% clean and i am the true 2nd owner. car was only a LEASE before me, never a rental. i asked the honda dealer too and they said they have heard of ebay's "autocheck" being inaccurate when they try to sell their OWN LOT cars on ebay! so they take them down because of that its not true
simply stated. does anyone have a carfax account they can let me use to run my vin? something is fishy right now when i typed in my VIN on ebay and it ran their autocheck.
it's showing my car was a rental/fleet (NOT TRUE) and was in a front impact (dealer i bought it from said it was never in accident and there are no indications it was in a wreck)
