Re:Recently Assimilated



Reed,

We acquired our '93 100 CSQW  last summer with 26K miles on it. My one big 
excitement was this spring during the 45K checkup, where the dealer 
discovered 3 leaky seals which were repaired to the tune of $2200 (included 
replacement of the timing belt). Good thing for the warrantee.

The rear window washer (if it's the same as the '93) is turned on/off by 
pushing the window wash stalk forward towards the dash.

My gamma radio also exhibits poor reception in town (Mpls. Area), however 
remote area reception is fine.

So far the auto tranny has performed flawlessly, although it took a little 
while to get used to the cars general sluggish-ness.

Other unusual characteristics involve a gas tank, pressure related, 
fog-horn-like, humming which occurs after driving (particularly on warm 
days). Some have suggested the gas formulations here in MN. There have also 
been a few occurrences of the ABS seeming to activate on occasions when you 
wouldn't expect it, such as coming to a stop at a modest rate on dry 
pavement. Suggestions here are dirty ABS sensors.
