okay okay okay... i was looking at my gauge today..and i think im getting alittle ahead of myself. It always sitting at a little above mid point. Looks like this:

H-
-I dont know what this line is called- but its marked on gauge

- <-- Its right here
-Midpoint


C-

Is that normal??

well...as for 3 quarters of the way- that is where it sits... full time. Today was the first problem ive ever had with my car.. and i dont smell 'burnt'...the car still runs-so far.. does a car still run if the engine is burnt??

Im talking about the the drivers side. The needle on the temp gauge is always sitting above the midpoint.. i thought that was normal. Atleast i was told it was. If i were to check the timing belt.. where would i look specificly and at what?

i just went and inspected my fuilds and stuff.. basicaly to see if anything smelt like burning-it doesn't. My tranny fuild is still rubby red- the oil level is right.. but i did notice that my coolant box thing- the whitish one-on the very bottom right hand side is empty. Maybe that had something to...

So... Im driving home from school..lotsa traffic..rainy day.. just got a parking ticket.. so far not a great day. Now normaly when im breaking and stopping alot my car gets kinda shaky. Almost like its about to stall- but never does..until today. SO i'm right outside my house (thankfully)..and i slo...

turns out it was the sparks plugs.. i got my timing belt replaced..and he put in new spark plugs. Apparently my old ones were rotting. So if anyone has a similar problem..check your spark pluggs

intake you say? intresting... i called the warranty company and they say they dont cover "wear and tear"..then whats the point? useles...

I'll have one of my friends take a look... hopefully thats all it is.

yes and no... it shakes kinda hard sometimes... some times it seems like it might stall alltogether... but for the most part its okay. So you dont think its my tranny??

Im pretty chocked right now... I bought my car about two weeks ago and im already starting to notice some problems. Firstly, its a 93 MX-3 at around 152kms on an automatic transmission... i've heard the rumors that the tranny will eventually breakdown..and im starting to worry about mine now. I've b...

intresting... i think i should do that too. My cars Cold to Hot meter thing (dont know the actual name of it) likes to sit in the middle- a lot closer to the hot side, fulltime- like thats its job. lol. Does anyone elses car do that? Or should i be worried about that....

the transfluid was changed today, i made the dealer do it before i bought my car. Should i change that regularly- like a oil change?

i bought my 1993 mx3 today....im in love. My last car was a crappy tercel..so to go from that - to this is well... a bit of difference to say the least. I love it. I've been looking around, and reading quite a bit about my car, expecaily the automatic transmission-which i have. Im kinda of concerned...
