guess what i had to drive for the day
 

my mechanic's saturn....

i love my svx more then ever right now!


my car was in the shop all of friday getting the bearing done, an oil change and fluid check, my drive side door lock fixed, and a 120 mile tune up. he rotated my tires and looks like i need a new set and i've only had them on for a little over a year...oh well.

the total cost was around $566. i was scared to see something over 1000. the problem with the bearing is that the last mechanic put the bolts on backwards on the hub or something and that is causing problems and it is hard to get them off.

oh, and BTW, my tranny is going :D schools almost out...life is good!

glad to hear that everything's alright now..

and hey, at least it wasn't a n***

:rolleyes:

-adam

honestly....i would have rather driven a N*** as opose to this beast....this was realllyyyy bad!

I highly doubt that! You didn't see the one I was forced to drive...and it only had 65,000 miles on it.

this saturn had 155k on it and i thought my tranny was slippin, dang!!!

Kelli

Well Kelli... schools almost out, at least that is a light at the end of the tunnel. Even though those finals usually really seem to squeeze that light down to about a pin sized hole.:)

Never driven a Saturn. Don't really want to. It made you feel all dirty inside and out didn't it?:D

:eek: ADAM! YOU ALMOST SAID THE "N" WORD!:D :D :D

Oh yeah, Kelli... is your tranny REALLY going, or just kinda going? Mine was going for about three or fours years until it REALLY went about six months ago.:( Pretty much stayed in semi-going form the whole time. Just wonderin'... you may be able to put off the rebiuld (or manual swap). Unless you're like me and are simply in dire NEED:rolleyes: of that manual.

i wish i was in NEED of a new tranny, i only have 8,000miles left on my warr.:( it is slipping...flaring...sputtering...being rather difficult at times...and heat...dang there is some heat come from underneath there...my feet get hot just driving for an hour or so

my mechanic and i are buddy's so who knows...my tranny may go quicker then expected >:)

Kelli

Ahhh... a little tweak here, a little explosive device there... oh I guess it really is time to cash in that warranty.:cool: :D

I drove my brothers focus and my dad's camry for a week and then I drove mine... Oh what heaven... especially with the bearings fixed. :D I think its because you cant adjust the height and angle of the seat as well as the position and depth of the steering wheel. I'm like 5'10" but most of my height is from my legs and its awkward sitting with the seat far back and then having to reach forward to get to the steering wheel.
