my car seems to be falling apart
hello,
in the past couple weeks my c32 has had more things go wrong with it than in the past 2 years. I realized the other day the passenger side back door electronics aren't working. the door doesn't unlock with all the others, and the window wont roll down. i did some searching but cant really find anything. is there a fuse for each door by chance?
second, last night the tilt on my steering wheel seems to have gone bad. the motor is still making noise and after searching it seems i tore the plastic dogbone that controls it. is there a writeup somewhere to quick fix or replace this?
my passanger seat is currently unplugged because its causing an 800 milliamp draw when the car is off. I just found the quick fix for that and will be undertaking that this week.
a clunking sound when i make a hard right turn. lower control arm bushing im guessing?
the car still performs outstandingly well, and i always stay on top of the maintainance but all these things seem to just hit at once. is this a sign of things to come?

Not sure. Just fix each when you can afford to. Before long, it's back to normal. I had my trans cooler go out, my IC pump go out, and crank pulley replaced. Maintenance wise I had my bushings, battery replaced and that's about it. I only have 65k on my 04. My warranty runs out at 100k so if something goes, I hope it's before the warranty runs out.

the seat control module drain can be fixed by cutting the constant power wire and tapping it to the igniton power only wire. Its a 5min diy. I posted the updated diy on my seat control module thread on the last page.
I believe there's a diy on the dog bone on the w203 forum.
