Default Whats Wrong with your EF today?

Spinoff of the other thread.

List everything that you feel like is broking, not upto par, or planing to fix.

Mine:

Sunroof wont close but will open.
Leaks in the back by the spare.
Blower motor gone.
Pass side vent broke.
Idle wont stay solid.
Lose ground.
Unbalanced wheels.

Thats it for now.

Keep em coming.

Edit 11/11/06 : If you already listed a problem list, and then fixed something, you can requote yourself later saying what you fixed.

If somebody is going through this thread and found that he has the same problem as you fixed, you might be able to help a fellow EF brother out.


Edit 2 11/11/06
THIS IS NOT a plan to do thread. Do not list your planned after market mods here.
Just the things that are wrong with the car that makes it off factory spec, or make it act or behave in "non normal" ways in which it shouldnt if it was "normal"

DO not list planned mods, period.

i've been pinpointing all the rattles in my car and dealing with them. Doors and steering rack rattle. ordering new door lock rod holders, and lockrod cushions for the doors. ordering new rack end bushing, bearing and lock washers to rebuild the steering rack.

after those parts are installed i'm rebuilding the brake calipers and buying the parts to make the car watertight.

Well, I was driving down the road, and everything just plum fell off of it:




I guess it wants me to restore it or something.
