Well the ho has a lot of problems so.....

....I decided to scrap it...
Well no, unlike some people when car brakes down, I fix it and maintain it.
So it got flat-bedded to the shop today and what I found out is that: power steering pulley got cracked causing the belt to slip and alternator to burn. On top of that the power steering pump is broken. So tomorrow the frame come off, the power steering rack and pinion is getting replaced, new pump being put it, new belt goes in and finally the new alternator has to be installed. Plus hopefully after good 6 hours of labor or so I can put my new winter Pirellis on. Brakes we just replaced three days ago, and now I need to put in new spark plugs and wires. Can't wait to drive her when she's all fixed up Right now I'm stuck with the good old V-Dub. The ho has 230.000kms btw, hoping to get it to 300.000 or at least till next December.
Just had to vent about all the problems. Meh maybe I should just scrap it... Never
