What needs fixin on you car?

No matter how much time I spend working on my car, something seems to break, squeak, whistle, flicker, flake, crack, etc....

So what is the latest imperfection that needs fixed on your car? My driver side headlight started flickering tonight on my way downtown. When got back in my car and started up, the flickering was gone...... great I have ghosts.

Well, every time I start my car I get this squeaking sound that seems to come from under the hood. So, I am guessing I need a new Drive belt and or AC belt.

On my list currently >

Need to fix an air leak in my front driver's side tire. Replace the shitty stock pads. Lubricate the sway bar bushings. Clean the windshield water nozzles and replace the wipers. Adjust the suspension ride height. Fix the chipping on the steering wheel and door trim. Install + tune my supercharger. Wash + wax the car.

a good wash and a wax, and maybe an alignment wouldn't hurt.

ahhh, passenger seat squeak! I can't find where exactly in the seat it comes from, but if I put pressure on the seat (as if I'm pushing the seat forward) the squeaking stops. That's all

Washed my car and then found a little puddle on the front passenger side floor mat.

Passenger seat still vibrates and rattles.

With a small garage and my wife's car being an SUV, our son has put a couple of door dings in the car. He's nine, so I cut him some slack. But, man, those stick out like neon signs when I'm looking at the car. I'm thinking I need to have the dent repair guys make it flat again then touch it up. I secretly hope that I'll have a slight accident only involving that door - the other guy's fault of course, and he has good insurance.

^ lol since he is nine yrs. old, he would only get 10 lashings in my house.

Q8y- Man that is a list. It stacks up quick for sure. What are you gonna use to clean the W/S wiper nozzles.

Replace all my brakes, and clean my TB i think. It seems to dip into the RPMs fairly low some times after you rev it.
