Hey fellow Luders...i've been reading only the general discussion board until i wanted to get something where i had to register and now i'm addicted to this website. I get a lot of useful infomation. So i'm here to introduce me
. welps i'm from Utah i've been in love with the lude since high school thought the 93-96 years were the best until they came out with the new 97+ models thought it was ugly at first then i kept on looking at it and *BAM* it was more beautiful to me then the previous model in my eyes Knew it was the car i was gonna get. I'm 23 and had my lude for 5 years and almost paid off (FINALLY!). okay thats good for now. Anyways i decided to post up a little story that i had to go through with my lude today.
i was racing with some black 4 dr car didn't know what it was cause it was dark. after the race my motor started tapping and my ps belt came off! it was hard turning the wheel i had to wait till morning to fix it. went to auto zone had to buy a tool kit and fixed it and what do ya know i tightened it too tight and the bolt broke off so had to go back in the store to buy another bolt which they had and got it fixed. Now... about the tapping noise coming from the motor had to take it to a mechanic shop So... I took my baby to a mechanic shop on wednesday and here comes the weird story. Found out that it was my valves that were loose so tightend it which costs $90 that was with the head gasket. I was there when he was finished and we were gonna take it for a test drive and all of a sudden the guy couldn't put it in gear!?! i couldn't understand what was going on, because i drove it there fine. i couldn't stay long so had to rush to work and when i got to work gave them a call he said that my master cylinder was leaking. What i don't understand is that i drove it perfectly fine when i got there don't understand why all of a sudden it just wouldn't go in gear. So me trusting the mechanic, told him go ahead and fix it and see ya 2morrow.
Morning came didn't bother to call him thinking it was already done but wasn't. so i sat and watched him work on it. Got the new master cylinder on and started bleeding the fluid. after that he went to start my baby up and still couldn't put it in gear. i was having a heart attack wondering what was wrong. after that What he did was put it in first gear and started and took off. NOW what he told me is that the clutch is gone. I said, so it wasn't the master cylinder then. he goes no that wasn't the problem but it was leaking. i said okay what now. he goes gotta take the tranny off and see if the clutch is gone. that what he said from hearinig it. i knew my clutch was worn out, it has 97k miles on it. i just couldn't understand that it broke especially at the shop. it just stopped working. WTF?!?
it wasn't even slipping it was fine. So went on and telling the mechanic...so i put on that master cylinder for no reason. he goes well since it was leaking it needed to be replace. so what he said is that he's not gonna charge labor for putting the master cylinder on and giving me dealer price on that and he's gonna pull the tranny off which he's not gonna charge also. because it broke down at his shop so i have to wait till monday to see whats gonna happen. hopefully it's the clutch not the tranny. ALL i wanted to do was tighten the valves!
now i have to spend more money on my baby! (Why do you have to HURT me so much!!!) welps i guess it's do it now or face it later. so i'm not gonna have her with me for the weekend. a sad weekend for me! i hope the AND1 mixtape tour will make me smile
. OKAY thats all for now!!! see ya ludas
