passenger brake doesn't work! Help please!

[lxndr]

Anyone else have this problem when someone else is driving?
No matter how hard I stomp on it, the car just doesn't stop!

[cvcc_wagon]

i get it with my buddy, he just got a 5.9l Dodge R/T (360ci) and his leadfood puts me on edge.

This usually only happens to me when my wife is driving.
It seems that the accelerator is faulty too. When stop lights turn green, there seems to be some kind of delay in the passenger side accelerator. Some times the light is green for a whole 2-3 seconds before the car responds!

Maybe I just need to take the car to a mechanic to have it adjusted or something?

get one of those instructor cars, they came in 1G crx's right?

Is anyone else having problems with the new "DICE" advertisement at the bottom of this page?

Everytime the ad changes, my cursor disappears!
The ad also opens a new page everytime it changes!
This is highly annoying!

[cvcc_wagon]

no problems with my Mac

[lxndr]

No problems with ad today.

The guy at my wife's dealership thinks I'm cRaZy.



He's probably right

You know a forum is almost dead when the only thread that gets any attention is basically an OT thread. By the way, I put my passenger side brake through the floor the other day when my girlfriend was driving her car... ScArY sTuFf.

Yea, things are a little boring right now. I started this thread last Saturday night (no, I don't have a life, I'm married). I'm suprised it hasn't been deleted by the moderator yet(?).

Even though this forum doesn't get a whole lot of response, I still prefer it to some of the other forums out there. At least the people who post here have actual problems that they sincerely need help with. Some of the other forums seem more like a boys club rather than a forum. All of the questions have been answered, and newbies are ridiculed for asking a question that has already been covered. This means that there's nothing left to talk about other than "who has the highest mileage" (talk about boring!).

A while back cvcc_wagon and I thought that it might be a good idea to start a FAQ (that's how the "post D16A1 info here" thread got started). Now I realize that if we have a page full of FAQs, then there will no longer be new contributions, and this simply will become an information page (kinda' like the '88-'91 Civic/CRX forum here). That would be sad to see, since I enjoy chatting with the people here.

Anyway, sorry about the OT thread, I was just trying to get a chuckle out of all you guys out there in computer land

i mostly just wanted the D16 FAQ because it comes up so often and there are bits and pieces of info in other threads but nothing in one place. it's a good place to start and ask questions later. plus it's the most popular thread in this section

I'll probably be working on the 20th.
I quit my stupid day job because all of a sudden my business phone started ringing off the hook (it helps that I now have a whole restaurant to use as my walk in portfolio)! I will be busy building furniture from now until May with just the orders I've confirmed over the last 2 weeks! But if you're going to be in town, I'll be glad to make some time! PM me.

Ahhh the dealership...
I've had many episodes with the guys at my local Sunfire dealership, you should read some of the stuff I posted in that forum! The people at the dealership are really nice and I've never had any problems with the work they've done on my wifes car, but I think I finally have them convinced that I have Tourette's syndrome (lol!).

I agree, the D16A1 post is Great! I think it has helped answer alot of questions. But when there is a whole page of "FAQ" and "read this first" to sort through before you get to a forum, it get's kinda' boring. I would be disappointed if this forum was modeled like some of the other forums that are set up that way.

No mod huh?


Hmmmm...


Maybe I won't have to be so careful about editing the "Tourette's" out of my posts.
