So today i was cleaning out the back seat of my car, a 1997 Mercedes E420. I purchased the car in February of last year and have been driving it daily for the past year and a half. Today, for no particular reason, i was looking around the back seat and happened to pull down. the console on the back seat.

After sliding out the cup tray on console i was unable to put it back in as it seemed to be jammed. After pulling it out completely i was surprised to discover three Redbox movies that were stuck behind it. The movies were: Captain Phillips, Rio 2, and Heaven is Real.

After owning the car for so long it was kinda of surprise to find something like that. I kinda feel bad for the previous owner as I'm sure they probably had a rough time trying to figure out where the movies went.

It was a car I purchased off Ebay, so I can't really contact the old owner and I guess Ill just hang on to the movies. So does anyone else have any cool stories about finding random items in used cars they have purchased?

I found a crackpipe in a coat at goodwill once.

And a dead cat in the trunk of a 62 falcon I bought.
Also I had a 92 3000GT and when I got it home to change the oil/ air filter, etc. I found a sock where the air filter should have been.
>>
I found a piece of K'NEX and some 3D glasses in the Taurus about a year after I bought it. Never did find that parking pass, though.

They're great at turning your airbox into a cumbox.

It mostly depends how many holes there are
>>
>>15535387
Yeah right, fag. Unless you're using socks that you've CUMMED on, I don't see how that could be possible.

Cum socks/jizz socks/jizz rags etc. are called that because you cum on them, not because they degrade and become disgusting by their own volition. You're just making yourself look like a fucking moron.

My first car was a 1999 civic hatch that I bought on craigslist. It seemed pretty clean when I test drove it so I didn't really care when the previous owner told me that he didn't have time to clean it out.
Anyways, here are some things that I found:
>dozen steak knives under the drivers seat
>scuba and snorkeling gear where there spare tire was
>a big ziploc bag full of lose cigarettes under the passenger seat
>huge torque wrench (didn't mind this one)
>french fries between the seats
Could be worse.
>>
I found an entire combination spanner set from 4mm to 22mm (in increments of 1mm) under the spare tyre in my MG

I'd contact the previous owner, but he lied and said the head gasket was fixed (it wasn't) so fuck him, free spanners

On the opposite end. I found:
The toolkit complete where it should be
The first aid kit where it should be
The manuals in the glovebox
The service records in the glovebox

Ever since I bought my car there was a terrible rattling noise from behind the dash. I ended up finding a corkscrew back there after doing some digging. I have no idea how you lose a corkscrew so deep inside there.
>>
>>15536323
Yeah kept it and shot the hell out of it for a couple years. Eventually sold it to my brother and he still has it.
Shortly after I found it I had a friend run the SN and it was "clean" so no worries.
>>
>>15536374
I found a 6 inch screwdriver jammed in the heater fan when I took it to bits to find out why it didn't work

Bought a BMW off a serviceman, he left an actual british army tactical knife, the military base entrance permit, Haynes E46 manual and some other neat stuff, and when swapping out the front fender I found weed tucked behind the turn indicator.
Seems like they've been on a trip to Amsterdam

My 2009 E320 was previously owned by a urologist in Florida. I know this because I found a pile of his business cards under the back seat as well as an Ipod nano.
>>
>>15535271
I worked at a dealership where we gave out a lot of loaners, and once we found a gun somebody left in the glovebox. They came back pretty quickly once they realized it was gone, but it was fairly surprising to find.

I hope you kept the smokes.

Snake oil as fuck.
I only get ECU chip tuners from reputable dealers who know the shit they're talking about. Don't buy "chips" that are just weird generic calibrations.

DiabloSport
Bad News Racing
Trifecta

Those are all reputable dealers who need specific information about your engine to calibrate a tune.

I'm sure everyone here knows this though.

i once found a prosthetic leg in the back of my taxi at the end of a Saturday night shift, it's still on the wall in the office, no one has collected or called to claim it. strange thing is i dont recall a one legged person leaving the taxi that night.

Very few modern cars still use cable-driven throttle. Hell, my Peugeot shitbox delivery van from 8 years ago already has throttle-by-wire.
And there are even a few models with electronic steering, feedback imitated by an electric motor.
>>
>>15541481
/k/ is cancer and for gays
>>
>>15539327
No its not. There is a throttle position sensor that tells the ecu how much you pushed it down. Then the ecu opens the throttle body the amount it thinks it needs to at the speed it thinks it needs to.

Most chips make the ecu open the throttle very quickly, making you think the car is now more powerful.

I had parked my car for about two weeks once, then at a stoplight in town I look over to check the time on my phone and see one of these fuckers staring back in me in the passenger seat. I screamed at the top of my lungs and I could have sworn I heard that little cunt squeak back at me. My windows were down too.

I wonder what was going through the minds of people around me.

>>15535271
Police found a small marijuana pipe in my car once when I got pulled over. Either someone that was in the car stashed it there or it was there from a previous owner. It sure as shit wasn't mine, I never owned one. They gave it back to me and told me to get rid of it.

A bag of what I think was ecstasy in my 95 Accord, not a small bag either... like a 2lb ziplock almost stuffed. Bought it in Vegas off of a guy on Craigslist who went by the name "Viper". Stuff was crammed in the back of the seat, which popped off when a button was pressed beneath the headrest.

Disposed of it shortly after finding it, since I know no one... and randomly dealing random pills I knew nothing about seemed sketchy.

Bought a 1990 Mazda Miata from the original owner, he is a minister at my parents church
Was cleaning it out, doing a full detail, removed the donut tire from its spot in the trunk, couple of Walmart bags stuffed in behind, figure it's cash form the weekly offerings, nope, pills, lots of Viagra, condoms, Astro-Glide lube and 3 really large and very, very dirty dildos, hair and shit covering them, bunch of other loose pills and some small bottles with a liquid inside, caps had tops like nasal sprays
Get a call from the Minister, asks if I might have found "some bags" in the trunk, told him nope, clean as a whistle
Showed my Dad everything, he was not happy, he is on the church's board, he took the pills to the police, bottles were "poppers" and the random pills were Ambien and Percocets, he took the other stuff to a church meeting and they asked the minister to leave, my Mother and some of the ladies showed pictures of the stuff I found to his wife, he moved away, she stayed in town
Washed the car again, then one more time to be safe
