I AM GOING TO SNAP UPDATE ALMOST CRASHED CASUSE OF IT
Went to the dealer to pick up my car bill comes to 1700 for the ABS brake modulator valve+labour and some work done on my shifter/key lock cylinder. Once all that was done it turns out my front drivers side wheel sensor is bad, and the traction hub (the part on the inside of the car). The total for that will eb 1200 if i decide to get it done. Now i paid 4400 for the car to buy it. That is now 3000 in repairs - the 275 dollar MAF sensor it still needs.
AHHH this is way to much money for me.

You need a new wheel bearing... $120 USD from Autozone, if you install it yourself. Also, if the pedal is spongy, they got air into the system when they installed the PMV. Take it back and have them get all of the air out of the brake lines. That'* a poor install job.

You're telling me...I bought mine for $7000 2 years ago...already have about 5,000 in repairs (a couple accidents) plus another couple hundred for wheel bearings, and $2000 in rust repairs if I don't patch it up myself. Thank GOD I haven't had any other problems. I'm wonderng if I should sell this once the rust is fixed instead of keeping it and restoring it. This is draining my wallet. I just wish a SC was for sale now.
Luckily the $5000 in body repairs was not all out of my pocket..but still, in body repairs more money will have gone into it that I bought the car for.

um
wheel bearings? I did a curb munch in the winter time and bent one so at 60-80km/h it would thump... I thought the job was pretty cheap... but I just got a used hub
