RogueTadhg Posted August 9, 2007 Report Posted August 9, 2007 This has been my baby for 5 years. 100k on it so far and there's an engine light that just won't turn off. I treat her rough through the roads, all the swirvy turns in Mountainy PA have a lot of 'fun' potential for me. I don't drive reckless where anyone else would be able to get hurt though, and I do abide by the speed limit (5-10 over at most) and a clean driving record shows this. Anyways. Here's my corolla, Figure I'd join a club where I had the car. /cheers Quote

RogueTadhg Posted August 10, 2007 Author Report Posted August 10, 2007 Thank you. What's a 'drop bear'? Quote

7shades Posted August 11, 2007 Report Posted August 11, 2007 This has been my baby for 5 years. 100k on it so far and there's an engine light that just won't turn off. ^^get your exhaust o2 sensor checked/replaced^^ I do abide by the speed limit (5-10 over at most) and a clean driving record shows this. man... when I was in the states, NOBODY was doing the speed limit... ANYWHERE... :) ... I guess having such liberal gun laws keeps the fuzz fairly preoccupied :y: /cheers Quote
RogueTadhg Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Posted August 11, 2007 (edited) speeding isn't an option for me. I don't see the logistics of speeding... although, I'll admit I'll speed when I'm late. But, I usually leave in plenty of time for where I need to go. I don't want tickets, accidents because of insurance, and the cost of the car that I really -really (so badly its got me looking for two jobs at the same time) need* is a sports car. Mazda RX8, I'm not a fan of speeding, but rather the look and the comfort the rx8. That and so I can say on job interviews that I have a clean record. A buddy of mine lost his chance at a job because of the driving record he had. I don't need to do things that'll close doors and opportunties so I keep my nose clean. 7shades, I'll check out that on monday. the corolla's up for inspection soon anyways, I'll bring it up into a discussion about something or another. Also, I've been having problems with the engine stalling out recently. After it sits for numerous hours, over night, i'll start it up, and press the gas. The car shudders violently, and stalls. It keeps getting worse and I put 93 octane in the car. any suggestions? I've taken it to the auto place and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with the engine light and the 'ghostly' stalling.
