Silverback
I went to Seminole Texas via Midland to see my grandson's Basketball, tournament. A three day round trip of about 1170 miles. :burn:
On the first day, after stoping at a quick stop for coffee and a nature call, we came out of the store to find the PS tire completely flat. :sweat:
The bead must have somehow separated. I didn't drive over any bumps or hit any objects.
My son put the donut on and we proceeded to the next big town to get the flat fixed. It turned out there was nothing wrong with the tire, so a new valve stem and $10.00 we were back on the road. :banana:
A little later the engine developed a bad misfire and the CEL illuminated. The scan gage displayed P0358 and P0308, # 8 COP. I cleared the codes and the car ran fine but the codes were stored as pending.
The CEL illuminated once more durning the trip and once on the way home, but cleared OK. I have a new COP at home I'll change out.
The door key pad then went south on day two, lucky we had the keys in hand. Also on day two the DS rear door was intermittent in unlocking. :cheesed:
On day three the PS front window failed to raise completely and it was raining. We stopped and jiggled the window and it raised fully. :banghead:
Now this is in addition to a bad blend door motor and inop rear defroster before we left on the trip. :violin:
I think Silverback is going to need some serious cash thrown at him before we go anywhere else. :bigcry:
The good news is that Mo's tune worked perfectly and we got good gas milage plus cheap gas prices. :2thumbs:
