Anyone else running into any problems come crunch time? I am getting this very odd rattling noise that seems to be coming from the exhuast. But I'm not sure becuase I havent been able to get under there and check becuase of all the RAIN!!!! I may have to take tomorrow as a half day. This sucks, so much to do and so little time, and too much freaking rain!!!!! rant off...

Ouch I'm going to see what I can figure out after work today when I get my oil changed. Hopefully its either something easy to fix, or doesnt need to be fixed immediately. My boss isnt going to like me requesting a half day with no notice.

I am still trying to get my alignment straightened out after changing my lower control arms. Firestone got the wheel just about straightened out and the set the toe how I asked but in the wrong way I told them to set it with 1/16" toe-in, I measure it up myself when I get home later in the evening after dinner, drove it first, and it is toe-out 1/16th of an inch at least it drives better then before

LOL, I'd so do that if I wasn't just out sick for two days with a sinus infection. I'm thinking that if I just explain the situation, that my car is acting up a day before I'm taking it out of state to a car show he'll understand. I'll just submit the request now and see how it goes. Thats my only chance.

They're like $6 from a dealership and they are easy to install. Quit being a cheapass!
