got engine light on?
Saturday, February 18, 2006 6:12 PM
okay first my muffler rotted off the car, then this week the flex pipe broke off the car at the front leaving it hangin' and realy really loud. so GM wanted 1400 for parts and two hours labour and i dont have that kind of money to want to credit that much out. so maidas did it cheaper still expensive but everything is back to normal and it super smooth. when i left the shop everything was fine, then later this night i was going home from my dads and the engine light is on? why? and should i change the o2 sensor in behind the cat? they said it came out of the old cat roughly and they cleaned it up and put it in the new one. so what should i do? im poor now and getting poorer.
thanks,
Nick

If it doesnt break then you didnt drive it hard enough!

I drive an automatic, I'll race you... 1 hand and 1 foot.

that's probably what it is...I'd get it hooked up to a diagnostics computer to make sure cuz those damn things are about $100...it's not hard to replace.

nooooooo

don't do that goto pepboys or rs strauss they do diagnostics for free, you don't need the GM place to do it.

The OBD2 scanner is universal between all cars and most automotive places will do it for nothing.

yea I regret it already...

i guess this will be the uber turbo monster cavalier you've been ranting about in the other thread huh?

are you going to go on a pissing and moaning fit in this thread too?

we should keep it off the forums and you should send me an IM this time... my sn is DaFlyinSkwirl.. I could use a good laugh.

I would IM you, but you conveniently don't have your sn in your profile. Hmm, go figure.
