What was the first thing you had to replace on your car?

Postby Missay » Mon Feb 03, 2003 9:28 pm

well..if replacing most of the front end due to a head on collision doesn't count :wink: ,

i'd say the 2 front tires at 41k. (although, i don't know what happened to the car before i bought it at 38k)

Other than the first oil and filter, I had to have the power steering pump changed on my '03 Solara at 5000 miles.

I replaced the windshield wiper motor @ 34K. Must have been a defective part. Other than that I haven’t "had" to do anything, other than basic maintenance.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.

No, it's an OEM part...the O2 sensor that attaches to the exhaust piping. The wires got burned through so I had to get it replaced.

After about 2 days of owning the car I had to replace the gasoline in the tank, somehow the stuff got used up. Must of been because I couldn't stop myself from cruising around in it!!! :lol:

The dealer does not give you a full tank of gas when you got it?
