323 Failed Inspection
 
Well it failed, need to replace my outer CV boots (cracked but not leaking), left tie-rod end (boot is cracked and leaking slightly, going to change right side at same time), left rear brake was squeaking (rust in drum, that was an easy fix) and my heatshield over the exhaust manifold was rusted (got a used from junkyard now). Since I have to do all this I am also going to replace my radiator since I have a new one now, all coolant hoses and the metal coolant pipe behind the exhaust manifold since its only made of rust. Oh yeah my tires are only good for 6 more months then the date code expires........

What do you expect from a 15 Year Old Car and stupid strict inspections in your area.
At least you have a garage where you can do your own work, right!?

Yes and no, yes there is a garage, no I cant use it cause there is a Polo with no front end in there right now. I have the left tie-rod changed now, heatshield replaced and the brake fixed ALTHOUGH now the parking brake refuses to work on that side........so annoying. Still have more to go through on it though.

Hope the weather isn't too bad. SNOW?
It's nice here today, in 2 days it will be just above freezing.
