All kidding aside, if your car's not acting up... it's probably just an emissions thing.
An O2 sensor, or something. Not the end of the world. That's the "come to the dealership and spend some cash" light. |

I have been noticing that sometimes it takes my car a little bit to turn over. |

I hope giving away $200 isn't going to come back to bite me in the ass. I was so glad, because I have some dental work I really need done. I hope it's nothing with the car. I'm calling tomorrow. If it's not bad, I'll see about taking it up to OReilly's first.

Also, anyone want to put new brake pads on my car? I checked when I went to the dealer last time, and it costs $260 for front and $260 for rear. Ugh!

My dad reads this thread, and I'm dead. My brother owes him money (nothing new). He and his girlfriend are saving up for a Wii, but haven't paid a cent to my dad. He'd kill me if he knew I gave him money.

I'd start by taking it back to whoever just fixed it, they should look at it again for no charge. Too weird that it's screwing up again already, perhaps it was replaced with a defective part.

Go to OReilly's first and find out whats wrong for free. That was you are informed to tell the people at the dealership what is going on and get an estimate to fix it. I can almost guarantee that if you buy the part yourself (at any auto parts store INCLUDING the dealership itself) and have a mechanic install the part that you will save quite a bit of dough. |
