What bugs you about your car?

I have little things that bother me and get a bit annoying at times, and im sure others have the same

1. rearview mirror is loose so I have to adjust it every 100 miles or so
2. rear defroster doesnt work...well only 2 lines do
3. have a tiny hole in the top which drips a little when i soak the roof when washing it
4. cup holders are useless because they get in the way of shifting and a spill is guaranteed whenever you hit the first pothole in the road
5. the tires are loud and make for an uncomfortable ride
6. the trunk is tiny, i often have to put stuff on my passanger's side floor/seat
7. no floormats so my carpet has faded spots from feet rubbing around the pedals
8. i mounted my boost gauge wrong so it doesnt sit flush and i keep telling myself that im gona fix it but never do

Its small stuff that I wouldnt care about if this wasnt my DD and i knew about all of it when i bought the car, but it does get annoying at times. Anyone else want to add to the list?

Weird suspension noises (with a completely new suspension)
Cars to low to get a proper alignment (yea yea my own fault)
Finding something leaking and not being able to find what it actually is...
Roof leaks water when it rains hard...
Lack of a rear seat and cargo space...
Weak head lights...

I'm sure there is more...but even with all the issues I wouldn't trade it for anything else! Lol I just will always find something wrong that I need to fix...I don't think I can ever be completely happy...

Rear hatch doesn't open right now
Passenger side window does not go down (I broke the switch installing my infinity speakers)
Front rims are kinda messed up
Alignment needed, as well as new front tires

Those are really my biggest complaints about the car.

1) its automatic
2) its slow
3) i lowered it and it's still higher than your average car (yay for 4x4's)
4) missing a cupholder
5) my trunk latch has a mind of its own

nothing major but still annoying. it's an abused DD, so it serves its purpose.

- side view mirrors are loose... can't tighten them no matter what I do
- stock toyota red paint has no clear coat... the car is fading like crazy
- my idle is high, not too bad, but there are too many things that have to be perfect to get a good idle
- cant replace my rocker panels because they are apart of the frame
- my exhaust b-pipe rattles against the swaybar and rear subframe....nowhere else to route it
- ebrake cable broke, way to expensive to fix it because it's not just the cable i'll have to replace, the front adjuster assembly is rusted to hell and will probably break.
- they dont offer a roof rack for my cars t-top model in the aftermarket...there is a dealer option that is impossible to find..

the list goes on and on. it depends on the day... car runs like a top with no problems somedays, and somedays it makes noise... its a 91, i expect it.

DSM, need I say more?

No but seriously,
-the massive amounts of dog fur and kibble from the PO
-missing interior panels that I can't find anywhere
-missing door skin that I can't replace because I can't find the pins for it
-how dirty the white gets so quickly
-work-in-progress status means it never moves.

Also the fact that my car is way under powerd. If I were to want power, the only thing that would be the easiest way out is to swap a 302 in my ranger.

It's a heavyweight fat pig and needs to loose 1000 lbs.

Other than that, I'm pretty happy with it.

Two red ones and a green one.

1. The vw is a vw, so it leaks when it rains. Everywhere. 5x worse when actually driven.

2. Have to keep tightening the lugs because the LF rotor set screw is stripped out.

3. The POS integra is a, well, POS in so many ways. Newest one is the brake warning light comes on in a hard corner...should probably look into that.
