Check charging system light will come on, then go away after a few minutes and not come on again for a long time. Then it happens again and keeps coming and going.

How fucked am I? Or is it just a bad sensor triggering it?

I'm just going to get a new pump/radiator, do a flush before hand and check the fan relay.

I've taken the car out for a good while and drove on the highway with no issues, only when I'm idle will it overheat, and there is no signs of a gasket blown so that's good.

It's a newer Hyundai though so it's all really negligible.There's a recall on the roof, but not for my model year bause they claimed they "fixed" it.

-rear driver shock is on its way out
-AC needs some work
-a spot of rust behind the front driver wheel
-windows are covered with hard water spots, same with the body
-steelies need to be repainted so i can put on some new hubcaps

I'm so ashamed of my god damn car, I haven't washed the exterior in the three years that I have owned it.
I clean the interior and the windows though.

It's leaking coolant somewhere. I don't know where because there's no exhaust smoke, the oil hasn't turned to dairy, no misfires, and no visible leaks or drips whatsoever even after multiple days with cardboard underneath. So now I just refill it whenever. Fuck it.

Also the outside temperature sensor is fucked and always reads at least 100 degrees F outside even when it's below zero so the automatic temperature control never works.

>>16835715
Just take it to an exhaust shop and have them weld a generic flex pipe in. Should be pretty cheap, I had a resonator cut out and replaced for less than $100.

Yep, HID dual-xenons they follow the road too, so its kinda neat. They also have these little side lights that turn on when you turn the wheel to a certain angle.

If car only overheats at idle is usually due to a bad radiator fan, fan relay, or fan temp sensor. The fans must come on when there is no airflow to keep the car cool, and if they arent for some reason, it's one of those things.

it's missing a front end

minor detail tho

Driving on two summer tires and two winter tires right now because one of the winter tires blew last week. Also it's been developing more and more rattles ever since I started working at the end of a cobblestone road one and a half years ago. Also I still have a recall to attend to, I think it's something about the electric windows.

Absolutely nothing. It runs perfectly

I love lexuses


I am however working on a 1969 mustang where i've pretty much replaced the braking system... rebuilt the drums, new shoes, new rotors/hubs rebuilt the calipers, new pads, new brake lines, new brake hoses, new distributor block, new master cylinder, new power brake booster...

all needed to be replaced because they had all gotten clogged up by brake fluid that hadn't been changed in 20 years, baka

All thats left now is to do a proper bleed and do some testing on a straight back road.

It's got almost 250k miles and I don't really care. Paid $2000 for it over 2 years ago and besides the throwout bearing and possibly the rear end thing none of the issues are fatal. I'll just drive it 'till it dies then either sell it for cheap as-is on CL or scrap it. I do actually love it, if I could buy a 2000 CRV brand new I would, it's the jack of all trades and has a picnic table for maximum tailgate action.

Anyway, thanks for reading my blog.

Mine burns a shitton of oil. About a quart every 1150 miles, which is on the upper limits of the acceptable burn rate. Partly because I have to rag on it all the time because slowbaru though.

2002 Civic Autotragic 200k miles

Wierd knock when cold, thinking its the rod bearings.

Car revs high during idling when it's hot outside and I'm stuck in traffic. This leads to overheating. This is the worst

Noisy suspension, from struts or ball joints. Not the struts because I replaced them.

I think I have a head gasket leak.

Rear drums are pulsing and squeaking, even after getting new drums

>passenger interior door handle snapped, has to be opened from outside

I need to completely replace every single suspension component, including every piece of rubber bushing/body mount.

The main bearings are likely 100% fucked and need to be replaced. 2psi of oil pressure at hot idle.

The passenger side valve cover gasket is leaking, the injectors are 30 years old and have probably never been cleaned, the brake rotors are completely fucked, and the steering bits from knuckle to pitman arm are shot. That, and rust. Oh, and my front diff exploded because my transfer case locked itself in 4WD for some reason. Yay.

I'm amused this is the takeaway from that post.

My car just got rebuilt after being wrecked back in December (azn drivers, not even once). If you want me to nitpick, I'm not happy about the new gears which have yet to break in. Otherwise, it's fucking mint.

Could be worse.

It's a VW with 200k

>very bad squeaking noise coming from front left area on road bumps
Mechanic said suspensions and wheel are ok and no evident play on arms. Got new plastic rivets on ebay hoping the noise is just coming from the fender plastics, since half the rivets are missing/broken. Gonna work on it this saturday

Going to drive it till it don't drive no more then scrap it.

dammit i had a gps box installed in the car because the insurance company wanted it that way.

5 months later.

the digital speedo suddenly.. lags..

so now i have no idea how fast im going.

i know iv reached the limit and then just have to follow traffic distance.

...seemes like they screwed me in the ass..

never going to get a platinum trophy now.

also they want proof that its because of them and the honda steeler wants 75 english pounds just to look at the bloomin thing.

also the engine seems to have developed a "noise" id say knock but im not sure.

fk.

Needs a front end alignment
Missing a drip rail trim piece
Front and rear bumper cracked
Sunroof is rusty

That's it though. Every wear part in the suspension is less than 3 years old, every seal on the engine is less than 6 months old, it makes good power, stops fast, has a decent interior, and doesn't break down.

>>16835713
>plastic interior bits scratch way too easily

same with my 2012 mazda 3.

I lightly ran a vacuum hose, A FUCKING vacuum hose, over the top of my center console and it left a very noticeable, albeit flush scratch. I look at it and grimace every time I drive.

Ranger 200,000 miles and 16 years old.

Frame is rusty in the back from pool chemicals, (auto)tranny jerks a bit when changing gears. Maybe could use a new windshield but that's being picky.

Not gonna say it was easy to have everything working, I put a lot of sweat into this baby but its been a good learning experience.

>MFW I just fixed the A/C after 3 years and now the weather is cold again

Someone vandalized my FD. Other than that, nothing. It's minty as fuck. And it's getting repainted now.

Kill yourself my man

I reversed into some (wooden) deck railing about a week after getting my license and now the back bumper has a big bit of paint missing but no dent.

Also when I bought the car the inspection people said the cam-belt had been changed 20-40k km ago and now my mechanic is saying there's no way to tell and I have to change it but I don't have the $1k to do that.

>crack your windows and let some fresh air in
I use the car's own ventilation system to get more air in. And since that air goes through the filter, it is also cleaner and doesn't deposit dust all over the interior. It's also a lot quieter than opening the window and letting in all the road noise.

sanded and painted steel wheels and replaced wheel trims

Painted a layer of undercoat

Replaced stock head unit since power button was broken

Fixed up rust on door as best I could, came back through from driving in winter with salted roads

Fixed a glovebox rattle with foam tape

Replaced a jubilee clip that rusted out and snapped causing a fuel leak

>>16840538
Could be, could be a lot of things.

Throttle body needing a bit of a clean is something that comes to mind.

I'd probably do a decent service, unless you recently did these things. Oil and filter change, new air filter, new spark plugs, check hoses for any leaks. And clean throttle body. And hope that resolves it.

>>16835655
check the radiator cap, if it's bad it'll dump coolant at a lower pressure than it's supposed to hold. it's not common so it can be annoying when it happens and sometimes i even forget to check it

I just bought a new Hyundai Ioniq and nothing...... so far...

The ongoing snowstorm started right after I drove the car home so who knows? So far it drives fairly well but fuel economy is way lower due to heating.

Wish me luck.

Volvo problems

A rock got in one of the brakes and the rotors all scratched up, but it doesn't really affect braking so I've been lazy about it. Also the paint and body are fucked but I stopped caring about that.

Had a misfiring issue where toward the end of a 5 hour drive my engine started to protest high acceleration and my loud eurobeat. Replacing the spark plugs and wire fixed that maybe but:

There are a few immediately apparent issues.

Good news is, since I had to replace the crank I;
Discovered the core plugs were leaking and 1 was literally plugged by corrosion.
Took out and replaced the CAS with a PROPER seal, not mazdas braided condom.
Lined the block with ACL bearings - mains, rods and thrust.
Cleaned and chased all the external threads and anti seize where necessary.
Advanced timing by 10 degrees.
New oil pump/filter/completely cleaned sump.

TL;DR Anything I could refresh while it was out like the whole clutch system, machined flywheel, new clutch/throwout/etc

I was too jew to buy a 2nd hand lump and shove that in, pretending everything would be fine.
Nek minit spent as much as it costs a shop to do it but at least I've paid nothing in labour and it's all parts.

As everyone else has said, your problem is most likely with the fan. Check if it turns on, if not, check if it gets power, if not, check the relay, if it works (might just want to replace it blindly if you don't feel like rigging up some wires, it's likely pretty cheap) check the temp switch that triggers it.

My vw's only at 115k and I feel like i've replaced everything on this damn car

Diarrhea stains in cloth seats
Wasp nests in the climate system
Radio randomly turns on at max volume
ABS randomly makes the brakes not work for a couple seconds at a time, just a loud grinding sound and brake pedal to the floor (have to use floor mounted parking brake, which sometimes doesn't disengage with the lever, have to get under dash and pull a pin while kneeling in the car from outside)
Steering very loose, wheels randomly and violently change directions going over bumps (this angers the wasps)
Throttle pedal gets stuck if floored
Headlights turn on and off when going over big bumps
Passenger door latch sometimes fails when going over big bumps, door swings open, have to pull over to close

Somethings up with the power steering and/or belt. When I'm parking and turning the wheel all the way, the wheel will get tense, then release the tension with a loud squeal coming from the belt.

Is the belt too loose, too tight, or the power steering pump bad?

smack dab in the middle of NYC. it wasnt so bad in the sense that it was a blizzard to end all blizzards or anything, but it was bad because it was sleet mixed with snow, which made for frozen snow that was almost impossible to shovel. you had to chop the snow first and then shovel it, and each shovelful weighed like a ton of bricks.

I wouldve gladly taken 2 feet of normal snow over the frozen 5 or so inches of frozen snow we got

nothing ever because it's a corolla. though there is a fucking ANNOYING buzzing sound coming from around my glovebox whenever i get around 2.8k-3k or so and i can never seem to find out exactly what is buzzing. it's like a loose plastic piece or something somewhere because if i lean over push up under the glovebox while driving it stops. its very faint, passengers never notice and give me weird looks when i start to accelerate and start screaming "AARGH THERE'S THAT FUCKIN BUZZING AGAIN!" it makes me not want to accelerate quickly because i know the harder i go the louder the buzz will get till the car changes gears.

taped where 2 pieces meet right upfront under the box before and that didn't help but this morning in my rage i managed to find a plastic piece waaay far back under there that had lots of play and i could tap it with my finger and make it click, taped it immediately, no more play in the piece. hopefully that did the trick, guess I'll find out later today. fingers seriously fucking crossed.

Wheel fell off, totalled another car.

Put it back on and it drives the same, other car was totalled.

When I bought it a couple weeks back didn't think to check that the previous owner actually put wheels that fit on... Generally you buy a car and figure the wheels fit right.

I bought the car with fucked up gearbox and i was aware of it (noise while engine braking was really annoying and rather loud, but i've learnt to ignore it after a while). I never thought it will die so soon. But hey, at least my proper radio got shipped. my car don't move anymore, but at least it plays music properly now. Also, i'll finally get to experience my car without fucked up gearbox, probably for cheap since it's cheap piece of shit overall, so it's nice.

>steering is loose as fug
I had the same issue on my 1988 F-150; the fix for mine was a spring clip between the two halves of the steering shaft under the hood. You can pull just the spring from a junkyard truck, and it takes about 10 minutes to change.

Here's a picture of the shaft with the broken clip; unfortunately I didn't take a picture of the replacement one.

>95 Civic
Leaks power steering fluid from steering rack; waiting on part so I can rebuild it.
Cruise control doesn't work even after replacing THREE broken parts. No idea what's wrong, probably the wiring or cruise control unit.
Fuel gauge shows empty at around 1/4 tank. Bad resistors, replacements on order.
Strange "whirring" noise in first gear/reverse when accelerating. Either the gear within the transmission or the differential. Might also be the steering gearbox.
Slow coolant loss. Hopefully it's just the cap. I'll need to do a pressure test to confirm it.

Some other stuff wrong, but they're all minor, and I don't really care about them. It used to be in rough shape, but I put a lot of work into fixing it up. Feels good to have it be in as good shape as it is.

I just bought a 1999 Audi A4 2.4l V6. For the first week it was fine but now I'm noticing it idling weird and it's reluctant to accelerate. I thought maybe the clutch plate was slipping but it still stalls on a dime. Is this a spark plug issue or maybe valve stick? What confuses me is it doesn't happen all the time, sometimes when I drive it it's fine.
