It's a 2004 but I'm not sure it will live to see 2014.
Throwing codes for a LF ABS wheel sensor (harness) and major evap leak. Also has pretty lousy brake lines in the rear.
It's smiling with one clear eye and one milky one.
I honestly think the previous owner tried fixing a leaky brake line with a hot glue gun!!!
This unibody rot is kind of discouraging for an eight year old car.
These floor pans OTOH look great and are what one can see when quickly evaluating something in a parking lot.
For my gross EVAP leak I'm going to have to figure out what hoses are no good in the charcoal system. These have coca cola like stuff dripping from them. Could plausibly be brake fluid from the nearby line.
I haven't checked out this tail light's fitment, would be funny if it were assembled this way. One owner car BTW.
Muffler is banging around. Just missing its belt strap. Universal stuff is coming to its rescue.
Coveted ecotec engine. Automatic trans has a little knob with a picture of a book/ owners manual on it. Nerd that I am, I picked up a HF 1.25" shallow impact socket for the oil filter cap before I bought the car, "just in case"...
They should have gotten the paint sealant!!!
Aside from "buckle seat belts" this is what it looks like driving down the road: Check engine, service body, BRAKE, ABS, and Trac Off. Is also perilously low on fuel, dunno if there's a light for that.
So I borrowed my FILs 1-ton van and rented a tow dolley to drag this heap home. I called Uhaul's local number for a self storage lot across town. Dude said he was in and out (Uhauls hours said in until 2pm on sundays) but he didn't have a Uhaul dolly. He did have his own I could have for $25 a day CASH, and I could turn it in after 2pm.
I show up and he's gone but this note is on the dolley. Junker has no working lights save for one yellow marker that only blinks when the brake and turnsignal are on. White ground wire is tugged out and corroded. It grounded thru the ball hitch, I guess. Instead of the pin that keeps the ramps from pitching down there was an ordinary hardware store bolt. Dug around MacGyver's van and found some vise grips to keep said bolt from working out.
The lower fascia of the car was smashing into the ramp when I tried driving up on it. Undaunted, I dug through the van and found one 2x6x8. Put it on one ramp, drove up it, and promptly busted it into two, four foot 2x6s. Perfect.
Put these on each ramp, drove up, and the bumper cleared.
Oh, this loading was all using just the e-brake as the service pedal sinks to the floor.
