Post Winter Repairs - So who gots to do them?

Well boys, im preying that we have had the last of the snow for this year.

Its the first winter i drove the car. But man does she need some repairs (im a bit picky when it comes to my car)

What repairs do you have to do. Mines as follows:

  • Service Engine Soon light came on right around i hit 85K on the car. Have to find out what needs to be done.
  • Passenger Front side Suspension has a clunk noise when going over uneven roads. I have to find out whats happening.
  • Driver Side Angel Eye LED went out. I have to replace it
  • Rear Rotors are warped (getting a bad vibration in my steering wheel when breaking)
  • Aftermarket Stereo shuts off for no reason ( have to check and see whats the issue)

Your front bushings need replaced. I had this done recently under warranty and you can do a search on the boards for the info.

I noticed a nice little dent on the front bumper right between the two kidney grills. Being on the bumper there isn't much I can do about it though since it's plastic. At least the paint wasn't really damaged there though.

My tail lights assembly also acting very wired! my right rear brake light always out but not because of the bulb. I just have to hit the assembly and it will back up again for 2 days!
