Okay I have to think alot, but not as much as the worst person here. I've had the following done:
1. Wheel bearing (drivers side)
2. Rotors(this is bad, check your hand brake) this will bite you in the ass for rotors, especially back ones.
3. Recalls all except the front spring ones. Getting the wiring harness done hopefully this week. This is a beater from now on. 161000 km.
4. Basic maintainance. Fixed the clock light easily.
5. Water pump hasn't been destroyed yet, in my life with this car. Had it from 49000 km to 161000 km. Thank god. 60 km per day. bought in 99 to present april 19/02.
All in all good power until I get home the car is dead. Not sure if it is the cat or cats that are heated so much to reduce power, maybe a cluck thing.
97 contour v6 LX - wouldn't buy another, but its hard to find the price that this was for the power.
Please reply if lack of power after 30 km, highway for 15 and stop and go for the rest.
Later
