I am once again extremely pissed at my car. I just got wonderful repair quote from B.S&B in the total of $1,384.42 to replace the AC compressor, accumulator and some O-rings. This is on top of the quote I received a few weeks ago from Firestone for my malfunctioning ABS computer; $600 and change. To have a completely functioning car again it will cost me approx. $2,000. I am starting to think that it's not really worth it for this car because two more months down the road who knows what will happen. I am actually surprised my engine hasn't gone yet. My car is a 98 with 112k on it and I have spent approx. $4,000 on repairs already ($1,500 in past four months), this should not be, it's only 3 years old for F^*% sakes. My car is obviously a lemon. In the next little while I will be contemplating the sale of it.
