I noticed that a lot of threads are posted by people looking to get info or parts to get their cars fixed. This poll is just to see who has what kind of problems with their cars. Multiple voting is allowed.

 

mysterious smoking....its caused by the devil i tell you!

 

I choose all of the above

 

gas leak

 

Cosmetic problems. Getting the car painted soon and have my all black interior ready. Plus the previous owner put a Greddy catback exhaust with big dual 5' tips. Doh! Replacing it with full racing beat exhaust.

Some slight engine/electrical problems too.

 

HMMM... where to start?

idle goes blaaaah blaaaaah blaaaaah pulse that's annoying as hell..
the huge dent under the passanger side door from where I hit a tree...
the paint peeling off of the driver's side..
the wiper switch that works sometimes (usually just when its not raining)
the weird overboosting problems...
the clunk from the front suspension.. the clunk from the rear suspension (that's new as of today!.. yay!)
the various underbody damage from lifts and jacks..
the amazing second gear grind that only happens 1 shift in 100...
the cracked/faded leather seats..
the worn shifter....
the broken speedometer cable...
the broken muffler baffle (that actually makes the car sound ok!.. weird.)
the million oil leaks from everywhere...
especially the one on the oil feed line for the turbo that makes my car pour out smoke as soon as its warm...
the horrible gas milage (not really a defect tho, it's by design.. oh well)
the sticky sunroof..

and with all those problems, I still love it to death... what an amazing car.

hopefully it has absolutely NONE of those as of spring 2004.. we shall see..

 

Well, I'm in the biggest wire harness mess of my life! Not to mention, I didn't have a clue of what I was doing, but boy, have I learned fast Now, it's a matter of getting everything back together and pray she'll start! Not bad for a woman

 

-shitty seats(fixing that come thursday)
-high idle @1350(but 750 when air is on all the way)
-exhaust leak
-cat back is hanging down(how do i fix?)
-sticky sunroof
-NO radio
-worn tranny bearings
-misc. interior pieces cracked(about 3 or 4 cracks)
-wipers only work on low setting, not high
-few carpet stains
-2nd gear grind only when warming up
-shifter boot is split
-something that sounds like a spring is springing when i press my brakes


other than that i looooooooooove her.

 

All of the above"
torn leather seats (at seams)
brocken speaker covers rear
misterious low coolant buzzer all thaugh sensors are new!!!
weid sound when light braking from rear... however all new breaks as of june... weird!
worn steering wheel,
various dents from previous owner
power atenna doesn't work
3rd gear grind... and grind when going into reverse!!! (not after winter *rebuild* )
I think that is all... however i am sure i will find more... but man do i lover her!

 

it's a 13 year old car... miscellaneous interior/exterior stuffs....

 

misc interior and exterior issues, but those aren't that big a deal. My biggest issue is with the pulsing idle (i think the tps is gone), the leaking OMP (i'm premixing until i can fix this), and the fact that whenever i run the car for more than 15 minutes, smoke comes eminating from the hood (seemingly from the exhaust manifold).
Damnit..this car's gotta survive till next may.

 

my fog lights don't work.

I need a new top.

wiper only works at one speed.

it is stock

 

yeah your list isn't long enough or thorough enough.

You forgot rear diff mount.

 

Oh ya a bunch of my electronics are pretty touchy...damn soldering.

 

hmmm...
it currently has a puddle in each foot well from rain while top was down... damn weatherman said 10% chance of light rain. it poured for 4 hours
steering wheel worn on top (probably from sun)
leather seat torn
windshield wipers don't go to home position, ever
right headlight bulb out
rag top leaks at corners of doors
bouncy idle
even more bouncy idle with a/c on
illumination behind climate control burnt out
right speaker is starting to deteriorate around the surround, making an annoying rattling sound
3rd gear very notchy - just worn out
rims are badly stained from brake dust
front bumper has a complete lack of paint
brake lights wired for european mandatory rear fog lights (car's been to europe and back)

oh yeah, almost forgot the door ajar swith is busted, causing me to back out of the garage with it open... destroying the door,fender, and hinges

and the belts skweekz

 

you forgot no motor

 

It's an RX-7, it plays russian roulette with the list above, so I can't really vote

 

I would have to say that... it does whatever the damn well it feels like but, right now it's just some bad soldering(probably), engine, body damage(damn hit&runs ) and misc. interior pieces.

 

Damn, its just how I thought it would be, but yet its still amazing the number of problems. Yet we still love the car so much

 

17 years old and no problems or leaks. Of course it does only have 64k origional miles on it, but it's so nice. Except for the fact the passenger door needs a smige of body work to get rid of a wrinkle, it's one fine car.

 

Lack of engine.

 

brakes line and cone air filter

 

hey sure there bunches of problems, but there easy fixes which help you learn about the car and what makes it run the best, the next poll should be how many people actually drive their cars daily? I do and have had just about all those problems list and fixed them, except for the cosmetics, my car is actually pretty dependable :p

 

Nice sig BigTone, thats a good topic for another poll. How many people work on their cars more often then they drive it?

 

i have mysterious smoking as well...yeah, let's blame the devil.
passenger side window doesnt go down anymore, driver side headlight only turns on when it wants to(but highbeams work!), plus a few more myriad gremlins at work...
