understand, and not a problem. are you still leaving out of town tomorrow?

yes sir..leavin 2morro morning.
i swear im either crazy paranoid...or something is weird..
my cars steering was def tilted a good bot to the right...and was vibratin a good bit during stops...not a lot..but enough to notice..
went in yesterday and from what i know they didnt touch anything like that...if so..they didnt tell me or charge me...but the car now seems straighter and doesnt vibrate. and the coupler doesnt make much noise now.
weiiiiiirdddddddddddd

can some one show me a pic of what the wire harness is? thanks

...not really, it can be easier to replace crank sensor if you take off the pass side wheel, and if it was mis-fitted to the car the R&R may have straightened something out.

the WOOOOESSSSSSS continue. this is absolutely phenomenal.

so i called my warranty company...they cover the SC coupler!!! sweeettt!
my dads garage didnt know exactly how to do it...so we called a bunch of garages that knew how. i take it over this morning(40 minute drive)...
he calls me an hour later...your power steering pulley is going..not ur coupler.
i reply, i know the coupler is bad, theres a bunch of play in it.
he replies, yes sir, the coupler is going bad..but not bad enough to replace it.
...i tell him not to do anything to my car. im going to pick it up later.
ill be payin the guy 50 bucks to do NOTHING. ontop of the 200 bucks i paid the guy in florida to do NOTHING!!!! awesommeee

so...list of problems STILL
need new wire harness(SES Light still on)..hefty price tag.
NEED to get the cracked exhaust manifold fixed. not sure.
need steering pump pulley. not sure
should get new rotors. shouldnt be bad.
door is out of alignment. not sure.

You didn't really pay him $50 for nothing. You paid him $50 for his opinion and an hour of his time, which normally costs $75 these days. So I'd say he did you a favor.

Is it possible he's right? If a professional mechanic told me my power steering was on the way out, I'd listen to him. And from what he said about the SC coupler, he's sorta right about that, too. The worn coupler really isn't a serious concern - it's mostly just noise. Worst case scenario: the coupler actually fractures (NEVER heard of this happening) and then you have to replace it for sure. Maybe you need to throw a new belt on, too.

Isn't the pulley covered under your warranty?
Mine were when i had a warranty.

so...get this....more luck for me...how bout my dad told me today they dont make a wire harness for the riviera anymore. they dont want me to get a used one either...im supposed to take it down one of these days to have them look at it to see what theyre goin to do to it. cant freakin win! lol

why do you need a new harness? just because the ses light stays on?

yeah...and when the light is on i get 12-13 mpg city or highway. cam sensor error code. 0431 if i remember correctly(cam sensor) sensor was replaced and didnt do anything. he rediagnosed it and said the the wires the cover of the harness was melted threw and now the wires are.

thats what i think theyre goin to try and do. i will be happy if theyre successful and save me 120 bucks lol

a $120 bucks is what a new harness costs? thats cheap

yyyyayyyyyyyy!!!!!!!
let the moneeyyy dump continuuueeee!!!!!!!
rear rotors
rear brakes
lower arm control
and something else i forget. some ball joint.
$600

plus i still need to fix the check engine light which will cost a min of 200.
still need the front exhaust manifold welded.

Scotty, instead of welding the exhaust manifold, look here:

There are at least 2 front manifolds on this thread, starting at $15... Who knows, if you keep checking the For Sale section, you might even find other parts you need.
