So we all know that we love our cars, but what is it that you hate the most about your car(s)....

Here is what i hate about mine...


=03 Mach 1= Valve tick from the driver side head that sounds like a frickin exhaust leak, Notchy ass tranny, & the squeak from the rubber around the shaker hood scoop...

=91 Notch= The slow ass blinkers, the BBK throttle body whistle that sounds like bad brakes, blown 2nd gear syncro, & the fact that I have to use the keys to open the door LOL (im used to SN95's with auto locks)...

=84 Rabbit GTI= The fact that my head touches the damn roof...

Shifter shakes A LOT!

I think it's due to having a three link rear and lowering the car. I need an adj.upper control arm cuz I think the angle on the stocker is messed up causing the shaking. At least of gives me a reason to get suspension.

100% agreement. Smog is the reason I have not been able to commit to building a motor and I constantly go back and forth about getting a 67-68

I hate that my car attracks too much attention from females and that gets me in trouble with my lady.

I hate that my paint is too shinny and I have to keep working on it to keep it that way.

I hate the volume of my exhaust, gives off the impression that my cobra actually bites, but really only barks.

In all seriousness, I hate that my coolant mysteriously over flows about 2 times a year and no one can seem to fix it.

I hate the bubble on my top at higher speeds.

I also hate the way cops look at me when I drive pass them.

I definitely don't have that problem [Razz] no smog or noise laws on diesels [Big Grin]

but my truck has a slight oil leak that i haven't been able to pinpoint yet, and the previous owner put some cheap ass pro-comp lift springs on it and consequently it rides like a tank. also took the easy road on the rear and put two sets of blocks under the springs [Mad] next on the mods list is a set of new springs front and rear
