Here's the info on problems with my car that ALL started within the last 2 weeks!
Somewhere in the back right strut area it groans when I take a corner kinda of hard.
In the front when I'm stopped and turned the wheel I hear a creaking/cracking noise (kinda like the fluid lines are full of ice)
The speedometer and odometer have stopped working.
The windshield wipers turn on out of the blue sometimes and only work on I (not int or II)
The power steering turns on and off everynow and then...so somtimes it works somtimes it doesn't, but the pump isn't screeching or anything and the belt is turning it fine.
The passenger side window doesn't roll down. (thought a few times on rare occasions my friends have rolled it down and I panicked and told them to roll it up-better stuck up than down I figure)
Car used to idle 100% perfect @ 850 rpm when warmed up. Now it idles andywhere from 1000-500rpm.-somtimes sputters and gets really close to dieing(I checked all the vaccum lines i could see, but all were connected)
My hks ebc doesn't do its job.- .5 bar creeps to 9 psi, and .55 bar goes all the way to 15 psi.
Taillight is backing out a bit and im going to have to reseal it because water gets in my spare tire well
Probobally a few other problems, but I'm going to go try and work on the few easy problems right now.
After I get the stuff fixed that I can do I'm taking the car to Rick's Rotary for a checkup (gonna cost me an arm and leg) - hopefully she will be back to perfect shape again, cuz I love this car so much

could be worse, sounds like someone took your car on a 72 hour rally race thru a couple rock crawling stages and out of a river. you know the windshield wiper thing is in FAQ. good luck

 

i know how to fix the windshield wiper. I think the switch needs to be re-sautered on, if not i have 2 spares ....ugh but all at once

 

Ugh to add to that list I was sideswiped it's a damn good thing only the front 1/4 panel was messed up. I need a new one now Any ideas on how to fix any of the problems above?

 

i will be working on my car tomorrow, if you want you can come by and i will check out what i have time for while still getting some work done on mine. the wiper problem could be due to cold solder joints but if you have spare may as well just swap in a newer one and see, for the odometer/speedo it could be that your cable just came unplugged at the back of the cluster, that or the cable has snapped internally, they will do that with age..

the idle problem could be any of a number of things, possibly a BAC valve dirty, TPS going bad or misadjusted, etc, etc, etc...

ps, if it hasn't been serviced ever i would start with a flush of the system, clean it out and add new clean fluid doing this until it all turns out clean, you may have some foriegn particles clogging the pump orifice, if not then the pump or rack may be failing.


passenger side window could be a simple switch problem or it could be a motor failing or a wire that is broken or grounding out, sometimes wires will break at the door jamb as the door gets opened and closed 10,000 times and the wire weakens.

 

i cant drive it it tire rubs on the busted fender and i havent taken it off yet.

 

well let me know when you get it driveable and i will take a look at it, until then you can check out some of my suggestions. if i have to make a house call then i am charging you...

 

lol, once x-mas break starts imma get to work at it.
