weegegirl 2 #1 April 5, 2005 I mean, just think of all the fun you could have with that money. Not me. Instead, $1300 might fix my car. And I didn't even get the satisfaction of crashing the damn thing for that price. hmph. mechanics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weegegirl 2 #3 April 5, 2005 Well, since you asked... the cadalytic converterS (I didn't realize a car had two) are both blown out. There's a hole in the thingy. The pipe thingies are all damaged. And it needs a new timing belt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ccowden 0 #4 April 5, 2005 No freakin way that costs $1300. Who'd ya go to, Meineke or Midas or something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #5 April 5, 2005 Go see a muffler shop (not midas and the such, but a hometown muffler shop) about the exhaust system, you might get a better deal. The timing belt, that's annoying, but needed. If it was my car I'd change it myself, but its fairly involved if you don't know about wrenching. Have you checked with some reliable local shops about the timing belt? That's the important thing, since the cadalytic converter doesn't do *too* much except make your car legal to drive, add a little backpressure for the engine and keep your car a bit quieter. I know a lot of rednecks that simply cut out the cadalytic converters and weld in straight pipes...LOUD to say the least and illegal, but in the country no one really cares.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

weegegirl 2 #6 April 5, 2005 I went to Midas last year and they apparently f*cked my car all up. They are refusing to cover it under their warantee. So I took the damn thing to my sister's garage. He showed me the hole in the thingy and it looked pretty devistating. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
