    so it finally happened.... e30 left me stranded

    massive coolant leak... started small managed to nurse it back from new jersey but about 40 miles from home it just got too bad to keep going.. tuned my normally 4hr trip into 10 hrs...

    on goes my bad luck... crushed gas tank last week.. bank lost my entire account for 5 days.. insurnace wont pay for the shop tank crushing escapades and say the labor and tank is 200 bucks

    nothing seems to be goinng right for me latley...

    Man, i've had bad luck like that before, lasted a whole month, nothing went well that whole month, bad grades, car problems, car accidents, finacial troubles. Just horrible. I hope your luck change soon.

      i think i can win this fight.

      i have no car, no money, no girl, no job, fucked up legs, i have missed every vacation i had planned including beachweek, my closest grandmother died about a week ago, i was just recently charged with possession of alcohol and i am on probation for the next year, i have a 500$ fine and 50 hours of community service... o and im grounded too.

      since april 23 my life has been shit. im waiting to catch a break.

      on a more positive note, i had a shitty month a year or so ago with my car where it seemed like everything was breaking or gona break. but after i fixed a few things it ran like a champ. good luck.

        All these experiences TOUGHEN you up....

        You think you have the worst life but you don't know what others go through or have been through. The accident could've been a lot worse. At least you're still living with your folks and have food to eat. Imagine if you were the sole bread winner for a family or living on your own...

        Hang tight !!

          The shop crushed the tank?? Make them pay for it... Coolant where did this start to leak from? Didn't you fix your TB coolant problems?

          I'm sure you could give Joel at Eurodepot a call and get your tank fixed for a reasonable amount he might even have a used tank in stock.

          I would have had one for you but my parts car is a early chassis and the tanks are differant.

          Head high and hopefully you float. ;)

            they have toughened me up. and ooo yes, i know it could be worse. i have met some people in realllllly shitty shape in the hospital and in therapy.

            sometimes its nice to vent though.

              shop denies responsibility... insurance unwilling to fight it... so im outta luck thank god i pay for that useless crap... great big F U to arbella and the monkeys that work there... thats what i get for having someone else do my oil change becuase i didnt have time/didnt feel like crawling under the car and getting all dirty last week...

              discovered the TB leak is where the leak is comming from... couldnt really see that well last night on the side of the highway... hopefully that is the only problem i am gonna swap out the hose and gasket today and see if there is still a problem

              and the TB leak is new... i wasnt driving it knowing about a leak... happend last night
              had to have it towed from auburn to waltham
