this is the thread for those of us that have/had an issue with our car and found out it was really something quite simple in the end.

so everyone has them, yes they start out as annoying problems but dont really take care of them because they are not bad enough to fix but just annoying enough to get on your nerves.

so ill start:

about wednesday of last week my car started this reeeallllyyy bad rattle that sounded like it came from the dash, like above the glove box. so its around 35 degrees here so im not gonna look into it further until it warms up, it gets on my nerves really bad though, everytime i go over a bump it sounds like the freaking tire is about to come off, well today on my way to church it happened and i remembered what was wrong and immediately realized what it was, so i hit the sunglasses holder took the sunglasses out and now the problem is solved.

OH heck yes! the sunglasses holder rattles like crazy and it drives me insane especially since im on stiff coils. Although, i have my music to drown it out, however, with passengers the rattle is annoying. I shall hit mine too

When installing HIDs I couldn't get my wheel well flaps to snap in flush with the fenders. I could easily stick my finger in between the well wall and the flap and poke my ballasts. Initially after the installation I had some extra pieces left over and I quickly took care of it but still had the problem. Took it to the dealership for suggestions and it turns out I was putting the flaps in front of the fenders instead of behind where they belonged -.-

Was very annoyed that my mpg was very low. Found out that I had a heavy foot along with a wife that's heavy footed :ohno: . I am now going easy on the gas and now saving 2 extra mpg :bigthumb:

my front map lights keep going out. ive already had the whole assembly replaced. and it blew again after 1 month. that was about 6 months ago now. i know they have to order the part from out of town. so i have yet to take it back to get fixed. just takes too long. i'll eventually take it in to get fixed again.
