bad day

[vette_7t9]

Very bad day today......my car had a clicking valve noise in the engine for quite a while... well guess what, the valve noise became extreme today, and claps so loud, the engine sounds like a friggin harley. afraid to drive it now, getting it to the dealer ASAP for warranty.

Also, found out how easy it is to pick the door lock on one. No, it wasnt a break-in. I actually had to break into my own car. This was following the extreme clapping. Anyways, was at my buddy's sister/bro in law's house, and decided to checkout the clapping cuz it was during the middle of the trip there that it got so loud and attracted so much attention. I opened the door to get out, locked it by habit using the electronic door locks, and shut the door. Turns out the keys were still in the ignition because i went to open the hood and intended to turn the engine back on. Noone was at the house, so we could drive to somewhere to hang out for a bit, or have to wait. We tried different keys in the door lock, but none would work. Then my friends gf lended me a hairpin as a joke, and i thought theres no harm done trying it out. I stuck it into the lock, fishing it around a bit, had another key to turn the lock because the hairpin was too weak, and WOW the lock turned! So we got back into the car, and that was the end of it. Just surprised how easy it was, i mean i wasnt even trying, i was joking around. And please dont take my story as inspiration to break into sunfires, i wont be responsible for any property damage/theft.
