Rant post……Beware!

My Monte Carlo Z34 is giving me so much headache I am about to put it on Drive and let it slammed into a tree or better still into a ravine. The picture is an old picture which was taken this year to the garage.

About two months plus ago I had the brakes and pads replaced. I had my friend’s mechanic to replace them for me at half price. He only charged me the parts. Bless his heart.

The years old engine oil leak is still not fixed. That would cost a bunch of money. So, I bought I whole case (contains a dozen) of engine oil, refill it every 1.5 weeks.

Now this is the worse one. The power steering (PS) fluid is leaking and leaking big time. Needless to say without PS driving the car is like steering a one thousand pound bull and the sound that it create when driving the car is just horrendous.  Plus driving the car without PS fluid is a sure fire to totally kill the PS pump which I think I have already did.

Again, I’m buying the PS fluid in a case since I have to keep refilling it at least twice a day or more.  The mechanic said either the hose or the pump is toast and fixing it is just a waste of money.  DB said it could only be the hose, and that he said is way cheaper to replace.  Hah! 

Whatever it is, where I park my car when i get home which is on the street, is beautifully stained with my car’s oil leak and PS fluid.  Also I parked across the house where there is shade but K said I should not park there since it’s not where their house is.  Reason I parked there is because of the damn sun and in the morning the car don’t get all fogged up!!!  Wellll, guess I will just park the damn car back in front of their house and put an oil pan underneath the damn car….and talk to the credit union.

Whether is the damn PS hose or the pump, I am ready to buy another used car from the mechanic who fixes up used cars for $4500.  That’s where the credit union comes in.  With my almost nil credit score, I might not get a loan and if i get it, the interest would be sky high.  Guess I still have to try to get one by hook or by crook.

Pretty obvious the hosts are not too happy having me “coloring” the roads!  Either get another car or move the hell out.  Hating this damn car!
