Default Lets see what broke over the last 2 months.....

93 Civic EX 145,294 miles.

Over the last 2 months this is what broke.

1.VSS Sensor harness connector
2.Distributer
3.Bushings in passanger side strut worn out to bad cause nut to come off.(neglect)
4.CV Boot was ripped drove threw a lot of puddle so I changed the whole half-shaft.
5.Main Relay went bad 2 connections are cracked.

This is just getting really frustrating fixing it almost every week. Car is originally from Ohio/PA so thats why the VSS is bad.

at least it nothing TOO major. Honestly with my car i would rather something mechanical go wrong (even engine wise) than have something electrical. There have been countless nights working on my car for 10-12 hours straight to fix electrical problems...something as stupid as a water leak leaking on the ECU and shorting out every time it rained...or a intermediate short in one of the fuseable links in a circuit.

A lot of rain / salt / winter in general.

The VSS sensor plug got corroded. If the car stayed in AZ like it is now it would prob never have that problem.
