  1. as yall know back in december, i totaled my baby. talked about parting it out but i have too much things to do in my current situation and not enough time. put it on ebay if any of yall are interested. ebay item # - 330210944043
  2. hey all, been a pleasure driving the reatta for 3 years now, after my wreck I decided i needed something good on gas and stick shift, so i got me a acura integra. the reatta is now in my drive way waiting to share the love. I plan to part all of it out if the demand calls for it, if not here then ebay next. Its white with blue interior (mind i say its in perfect condition on the inside) have all parts except hood bumper radiator + both fans one of the turn signals dosn't work (but forget which one) spare fender is red (passenger side) left fender is white of course prices are very resonable since i need to get rid of the car. if anyone local wants the whole car just let me know. also if anyone wants a picture of somthing just ask. i am a full time student plus college so I may be a little slow just be patient. thanks again.
  3. back again, dad gave me the details on what the adjuster said when he came out today and looked at it. He totaled it of course, although he never told me dad how much damage I did in terms of $$$. The check would be around 4000, that he said which suprized the hell outa me, cause my parents 97 taurus only got 3000. I have pondered alot about fixing it, but the car is too old, with too many miles (182k), i'd be better buying the car back from the insurance company for 300 dollars for a parts car and buying another reatta. Now the decision is... how far do i drive to find another.... when it was only 2 miles up the street to find the first one...
  4. okay guys, today it sat in the tow yard, ajuster is supposed to toe it tommorow somewhere and look at, gonna call and recommend my own body shop before he does that. I am keeping in mind of what yall said about is it worth it or not. I just love that car and don't really want to get rid of it. In the event that I fix it, I would rather buy the parts on here because I trust all of yall. Can I get a quote from somebody on the whole front end (hood, left fender, bumber, bottom grill) I am pretty sure that the turn signals and headlights are in tact, going to check them tommorow. I have a spare right fender in my garage also. Also if anyone has a spare radiator, a quote on that also. Ill go from there, after I see what the adjuster says tommorow. p.s. - how much usually does a airbag cost to put back in? and on the kelly blue book value, which value do i use? trade-in? prive-party? or retail? Thank all of yall once again.
  5. alright thx TommyH, i'll try him, but if the car's frame is totaled, ill have no choice but to just part it out, hope to god it isn't. As far as i can see, the radiator and airbag was only other things broken besides the body damage, but i could'nt really lift the hood to see.
  6. srry pics to big to see, heres links. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a1/Zakarasu/121607_135000.jpg http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a1/Zakarasu/121607_134900.jpg http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a1/Zakarasu/121607_132000.jpg
  7. Was driving today and for some reason I "zoned" out and ran a red light... hit a 05 kia at 45mph. waiting on the report to see if its totaled or not, I'd like to fix it, but that is alot of cosmetic damage, what do yall think? Worth it or not? ill get back with yall and tell yall the settlement.
  8. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Howard</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> Also, I know the odds are against this, but have you checked the bulbs on the lights that are not working? My ashtray lamp did not work when I got my car. Replaced the bulb, and has worked ever since. </div></div> ....Theres a ashtry light.... gonna go check it out, had no idea, musta been burned out too.
  9. fuel filter. I've never replaced it, and thought it may be the source of my problem. I will go to hit the gas sometimes, and it won't go like it is supposed too. I thought this may be cheap gas as people tell me, but I've tried different gas stations every time. Will just stall for a couple seconds, so most of the time ill give it a lot of gas and then it will fire away. I tried the search feature and found articles but never mention of exactly where it is located. Id appreciate it.
  10. hey yall back one more time on a question, i bought the front left brake hose yesterday, picking it up tommorow, but got a problem and now im afraid to drive it. Since yesterday (monday) the *brake red light* has been ON and everytime up until then i would just add brake fluid and it would go off. well its tuesday night and its been on 2 days straight. Tonight after work it was makin this weird noise that i can't describe, but i have full petal. It just scares me to drive it like it is after hearing that noise and all. I plan to fix it tommorow at noon, but i just hope i make it. Not to mension my emergency brake don't work either...
  11. Back everyone, I investigate some more, come to find out, it was the front left brake hose had been leaking. Apart of the sheathing had been tore open/off and been leaking there. Also front strut sheathing too, but the strut is very tight at the moment and not loose, so ill probably replace that later. Also got my back cylinder leaking, so i got couple problems to fix. Can't believe mechanic would try and rip me off by buying the whole abs unit, cause he said he checked the hoses.....Thanks everyone for yalls input.
  12. okay ill go read it, although im pretty sure, i have to add 1 bottle of brake fluid every 3-5 days, and theres huge puttles on my driveway, checked the wheels and there dry, pretty sure its somwhere around the teves unit.
  13. hey all, im not fairly familar with the abs "teves" unit. from what I saw, it is leaking somwhere within the abs unit itself, i just want if anyone can help me on where to start/look for. I work all week, but saturday i plan to wash it down, and find exactly where the leak is coming from. So in reality, what are my options, once i find where the leak is coming from, thank you all once again.
  14. okay, i thought it was the idle wheel but wasnt sure, i am going to attempt a 18mm socket.... i let ya know how it goes. p.s. - why couldnt u just cut the belt off, would that hurt anything?
  15. hey yall im sort of new at workin on cars, but ima attempt this belt, i removed that annoying looking bracket in the way, now isn't there supposed to be a spring or somthing that i wedge somthing in to relieve the pressure, or a nut? or somthin, help would be appreciated, thx again.
