She threw a P0449 code... again.


I haven't checked to see if it's wires (pesky rodents) or the solenoid yet. If it's the part, it's still under warranty. Bought the part last December, wasn't going to lay out in the ice and snow to change it out, it's only been on there since early spring.

Went to Wally World yesterday and bought an exercise bike. Went to leave and my car didn't start. Being a good Boy Scout I assembled the exercise bike right in the parking lot with the tools I keep in the car. Hooked up a tow strap (yes I carry that too) and went to tow it home. I did have a rough time pedaling and going nowhere.

A cruise out to Grimsby , Ontario Canada, for lunch with friends visiting from Ottawa, Ontario Canada.
Then just the usual weekly grocery shopping and picked up some eggs from our farm friends in the way home.

Did some much needed cleaning in back of mine, especially before I put my tools etc back in with the spare tire that I even remembered to add air to as well..

He wants you to get your toe in adjusted. There is no camber/caster on these cars. Earlier cars you could do that, but no more on this type of vehicle.

Today, a ride out for coffee, maybe a late lunch. I went to look at a 2010 2LT last night, man why can’t people be honest, I asked specifically, has it been smoked in, she claimed, no I don’t smoke and I’m the original owner!
just opening the drivers door proved that to be misleading.
a nice IBM exterior, a Tan leather interior, but never cleaned just wiped with a damp cloth.
So, no test drive, Sweetie is firm, no smoke
