Thats the most chrysler thing ive ever heard

I kek'd

I'm tempted to go to a junkyard and pull one, but I've heard on forums that it doesn't always work and that the car won't recognize a sensor from a different year of the car. So I need to find a base-model 2008 PT Cruiser with an intact interior in a pull-your-part yard. Been looking for 3 months and nothing.

I'm doing a 2007 Town and country brake job on the front. The caliper is held on by 2 Torx-45 bolts. Fucking Chrysler

Itd be cheaper to just buy a pt cruiser for 500 bucks at part it out

>heavy minivan filled with people and stuff
>brakes are held on by 4 rather small bolts

Wow, that's dumb. I'm surprised it holds up at all.
It's odd because everyone I've talked to that's owned a t&c loved it.

I can't find any '08 ones within 40 miles of me and really don't want to pay $200 to tow a $500 car. I may have to though.

I just drove a hyundai. The retard levels are always going to rise after that sort of experience.

Well, at least I get some.

>>some clutch smoke and dust is my face, I mean

Happened to my mum recently. She wen't into panic mode and just covered her face while I as a passenger pulled the hand break which stopped us literally 0.5cm from another car.

>>have to turn off radio, A/C, and any extra electricity-sapping stuff when merging into highway
Alternator failing

Get a wheel balancing done

>car idles at 1000 rpms

s-should I be worried

Does it drop after 5 minutes?
Diesel or Petrol?

You've never really lived until you experience complete and sudden brake failure.

In a ten ten vehicle, with a snow plow on the front. Good times.

this.

Alt is new and wheels are balanced. Shitty underpowered shitbox is underpowered (and shitty).

I had my wheels balanced and apparently it was all right but still had vibrations. Went to other garage that checked wheels again and they discovered one of my alloys was fucked beyond repair, and also that 2 of my front tyres were past it's use-by date.
Replaced alloy and 2 tyres and it drives like new.

Really rattles my Jimbos

already spent on it more than I paid for it, and I only had it for 2 months

It's a great vehicle. Just kind of silly with the brakes

having sensors monitored over obd-II is scary

>tpms light comes on, low tire pressure message

It's probably rattling against something in the door ya dingus.

It's obvious, but I was too pissed off to disassemble it once again to check clearances or for object pressed against the speaker.

This happens basically any time I go anywhere, and I'm running out of ideas for what could be doing this. I've cleaned my throttle intake, made sure the throttle cable is still intact, all that shit. I don't get it.

bad tpms?

Ignition?

Well, long story short, I found out a few months ago that it's trying to advance the ignition by 19~ degrees, or something to that effect. Guy who diagnosed it didn't know why, though, so I just kinda left that alone since I'm really not qualified to mess with that shit.
You anons got any ideas? The only thing I've been able to think is that it's either trying to modify the ignition for a VTEC that no longer exists in that car, or that one of the sensors is bad.

wtf? is it engine swapped or some shit?

That doesn't sound right, not even B or K Frankenstein's do that if Vtec isn't connected

This actually happens and I have no idea why. It doesn't matter how strong I set my A/C fortunately, so I do it all year, even in winter.

Lol mine idles around 1200 on bad days... i'm guessing vacuum leak on mine. No time to pull everything off and fuck it up

>turn on A/C
>revs drop
That would occur if I was idling in the same spot for a short while and didn't have the foot on the brake pedal. The computer switches over to a slower idle after like 15 seconds.

use a bike shoe setup

Engine swapped, yeah. Took out the old H22A in it for a F22B when two of the cylinder walls wore out and it became cheaper to get an entire new engine instead of reboring the walls.

Nothing about this car is right.

I know, i still daily drive it, one of these days i'll fix it, probably once the clutch dies completely

Is this a Prelude or an Accord? Why didn't you replace the H22 with an F20B?

Prelude, fifth gen. As for the F20B, because I got this thing a few years back when I was retarded and didn't know shit about cars, and just wanted something cheap that would work. The F20Bs costed more than the entire car did, since most of them were around 15-2000, while the F22 was only 400 and had decent mileage.

Nigga pls my E46 idles at 600rpm when AC is off

Strange metallic rattling only at 2500rpm

I only see them for $1500 or higher when they have the 5 speed LSD manual attached, but a F22 in a 5th Gen? C'mon man

Your mom is a danger to everybody on the road and shouldn't be allowed to drive, ever.

>power brakes fail right before a traffic jam on the 405

Could you wire in a resistor or sumfin to trick it?

Should've kept it stock faggot.

Yeah, but free is free. I feel like letting it die would break my grandfather's heart, seeing that I inherited it from him because he can't drive anymore.

It's been tried; It needs the actual sensor data. Managed to buy a sensor on EBay really cheap just now, so hopefully that will fix it.

Are you driving a Chevrolet Colorado ~'10?

Mine does that shit all the time, even with new tyres

Bad sensor laddie. That or there's a reset procedure other than just driving it around

Bleed the brakes my boy

>every nissan ever
>release throttle BEFORE clutching in at 5k revs
>revs go to redline

Your mom probably shouldn't drive bro

FIATs haven't been good for over 30 years you dummy

mine idles around 700, 900 with a/c on, either way it's a really really quiet idle so i can roll past my neighbors and not disturb anyone at night :3

>turn fogs on
>interior lights come on instead

may be a stupid question but i get like a slight performance drop when i have the ac on in my 09 civic, is that because its a 4 cylinder or whatever?

It's on all cars. It takes power to use the AC, it's as simple as that.

gotcha bucko

Get out of here rich fag. I bet your car has cruise control too.

>tfw I have this issue

Eurofags are required to have atleast one rear foglight so there's that.

Rear fog light? I really hope this is euro-speak for a back up light.

Otherwise I want video of cars driving backwards at speeds over distances using rear fog lights. And I want it now.

I've been too pissed off

No, not a back up light even though one of those is required too. But like a super bright red light at the back you can activate with a switch which is not the standard rear light nor a brake light. Googling it would be easy.

kys faggot

PERFIDIOUS TOYOTA IS NO ALLY OF MINE

>googling anything about the failed continent of stagnation and cultural genocide

No thanks. Do you mean Hazard Lights? Here they flash rhythmically in the back. Bit we don't call them fog lights because we use them for all sorts of hazards, not just fog. If your cars actually have just a super bright red light that is only for use in fog than that's retarded and I am glad I didn't google it and I hope your daughters get raped to death by packs of wild Muslim niggers.

Thanks for the you dumb fag. Go google how to destroy western civilization. The first article will have a picture of you. The second picture will be of your daughters being raped by packs of wild Muslim niggers.

It's not a hazard light because it doesn't flash. It's not just for the fog but for like a blizzard and other such things that limit visibility, but not just the dark.

Hmm and IDK tough talk from a person from Drumppf land. Enjoy falling behind on all kinds of development and lose all allies. And wow you got triggered? Does your lack of IQ also come with like +100% aggression? Just fucking Google what a fucking hog light is, and apply it to the rear of the vehicle without getting triggered like a baby.

can confirm. I had the brakes fail on my SHO on a downhill in traffic.

I will ride eternal, shiny and chrome! I live, I die, I live again!

it does have cruise control but it hasn't worked for months :(
>back up light
is this ameri-speak for reverse light?
depending on the car it's 1 or 2 bright red lights that are brighter than the sidelights so cars following you in extreme fog can actually see you. jeez.

>remove door handles to grease the mechanism
>all door handles now rattle at one exact rpm

>reverse light
is this euro speak for fwd burnout indicator?

>it does have cruise control but it hasn't worked for months :(

My experience with my first car. Cruise control worked once, and then was broken for the duration of ownership.

Why do girls do that? I know that the underlying reason is that they're biologically obligated to rely on external help rather than themselves, but I don't see how screeching and going limp in a life or death situation could've possibly been a naturally selected trait.
