Parked mine in the garage.
Failed smog, emissions too high. Could have something to do with cyl 2 and 4 misfires.
Need to start working on it here in the next few days

they do an actual measurement? here they just plug into the computer. start with codes instead of blindly changing parts.

Post what you did to your car most recently and feel free to attach pictures.
I haven't done much to mine in some time but hopefully soon.

Crawled under and replaced the broken glass on a fog light. Thankfully I had a box of them from the several front bumpers I've been through. The one I have now is in really sad shape but sadly I don't think it's going to be possible to find another one.
Replaced front flex disc. Was thankfully able to get my impact wrench above the exhaust and bust those loose.
More suspension parts on the way as I slowly completely rebuild all of it. My biggest fear is doing the subframe/diff bushings. I may hire a shop for that one.

After having issues with my car where it would lock the tires when I turned. Turned out to be a bad wheel alignment. Went to a more reputable place and they said the other people really messed up the alignment.
didn’t do that today but thought I post anyway…

Totally disgusted by the work done from so called qualified technicians. Happy you seem to have solved the problem, even though the blocking of a wheel seems a bit extreme for a faulty wheel alignment

after the second place did the work we plugged the sensors back in and car has not locked the wheels.
