So... been a while since I've spoken in the forum... but here's an update on my...lovely... Nitro:
Coolant level rapidly disappearing but there are no leaks.. I'm assuming a head gasket has blown or at least partially blown as this has been happening for probably 2 - 2 1/2 months now as I can not afford to repair that.
I can't go through a car wash or else I start to overheat, and then my engine temperature gauge goes 50/50 on working and not working. Also my heat stops working.
My heater will only blow hot(warm) air if I am actually moving above around 20 MPH, and only out of the center console.
I had some pretty bad misfiring going on for a while, but it appears to have gone away for the time being... occasionally pops back up :/
I recently had my valve covers and valve cover gaskets replaced because my valve covers were warped... pulled a spark plug and smelled burned oil, hoping a new leak didn't appear....
Someone backed into me a few months ago, but I let them go because they were in a beat up van and I didn't want to sky rocket their insurance over a bumper. The bumpers cracked and for some reason has started chipping and cracking paint all over it despite only being hit in one spot. I'll replace it at some point.
My Catalytic Converters are on the verge of going out, that code is always popping up.
The Passenger-side front door, and Driver-side passenger door locks do not respond to being locked by either the key fob or lock switch on the driver door.
I hope the rest of you are fairing better luck than I am!
Any help with the engine misfires, loss of coolant, and loss of heat would be of great help!
Sorry for the rant, its been building up for a while 😅
