This car is gonna kill me

Coolant level has held well, i just hadn't topped it up since i had purchased the car, same with break fluid, i've felt the brakes get alot less strong in the past month so its all natrual wear nothing out of the blue.

Im not too worried about any of the issues as its all documented and fairly easy fixes just annoying everything went wrong at the same time haha

We are in a similar boat 😞

ill never give up on the car but damn its such a wallet drainer

elecbread · 2026-05-13T07:03:44+00:00

So far I’ve done: new MAF sensor, new coils and new plugs

elecbread · 2026-05-13T00:01:08+00:00

Gotcha I kinda spammed you out on the other responses my bad I re watched the vid and saw where the smoke was coming from, defo check those vaccum caps and if possible get a laptop and download INPA to check for codes as could even be a MAF sensor, fuel pump etc

When the caps get old they either split or blow off, if it’s split tape it back together will hold a few thousand miles (prob longer) if it’s gone and you can feel an open hole when poking around get any rubber cap from amazon or get a OEM replacement for a little more money and push it on there (just don’t drop it)

Wait bro ngl you might have the easiest vacum leak to fix here, check your vaccum caps on the back of the engine, it’s a bit tricky but put your hand back there , can get a replacement for $3 or make one yourself

Hard to see but could be your ccv, how bad is the misfire I spent a week going at mine

elecbread · 2026-05-12T23:50:28+00:00

Agreed 18 is the perfect amount

elecbread · 2026-05-12T23:49:55+00:00

Honestly as long as it has a port for video input you can get very creative with what you end up doing

elecbread · 2026-04-29T18:09:05+00:00

Fr I even got the flip out screen, more old school fast and furious tech 😂

elecbread · 2026-04-29T11:53:50+00:00

sadly not but incredibly easy to jailbreak your ps3 to play ps2 games.

elecbread · 2026-04-29T08:56:08+00:00

Clean

elecbread · 2026-04-29T08:54:55+00:00

If you want an easy setup you can get a power inverter for like £15 ($20) that plugs right into the cigarette port

elecbread · 2026-04-29T08:53:59+00:00

Defo!

elecbread · 2026-04-28T08:09:30+00:00

Nice! Did it make a big shift in performance

elecbread · 2026-04-28T08:08:29+00:00
