Wow!

Man this place is beat.

I rotated my tires yesterday, since the temp. finally rose above freezing. Good thing I did; my brakes are about done (pads).

Have any of you guys re-lined your calipers? How many miles were on the car when you did? Mine prob don't need it. I would like to clean up the calipers though, since they are rusty on the visible surface. I tried to clean the inside of the wheels with a Simple Green-like cleaner, and with Goof Off, but they still have a lot of nasty stains. Any suggestions on how to get that crap off?

I rotated front to back only, and now I have extra front tire noise. I hope it's only due to the difference in tread....

So now that it's above freezing here, I'm cruisin' with the top open and the Clay Aiken blaring!!!

Dat's my move!

I haven't done anythig to my brakes after 3+ years :)

Dang!! How many miles?! Don't they use salt on the roads up there????

Yeah they use salt but i don't do that much driving in the winter. I've got about 32K miles.

I've got 32K as well and I need new pads asap. I'm getting tons of squeal and also that dreaded grind that some people have been mentioning every time I brake. Hopefully the rotors won't require resurfacing. Little things are happening with this car that are really adding up. Besides the brakes, the rotors, the dash rattle (NOW I'm getting it), I have popped 2 headlights in 2 months and the gas cap failed inspection (what the hell?). Dumb things. I don't remember this many inconveniences with my Civic...

Hmm.....you'd better get to those brakes soon, or the rotors will require turning - from the sounds of things.

What do you mean by "popping" headlights?

He means he popped a cap in it's ass because it wouldn't light up enough of the road. :icon16:

My brakes were replaced before I even owned the car...Im pretty sure the old man driving it before me was a little brake happy...im just shocked the clutch was ok...

and man them botanists is straight thuggin yo!

S777's Rollin down the street, smoking n dro, sippin on Gin n Juice, laaaaiid back, with his mind on plants and plants on his mind

Plants on his mind, or in his mind?!

I got bitches in the livin room gettin it ooon and they ain't leavin till six in the mownin....

I meant that I've blown two bulbs in the past two months. Both sides...
