a few 2000 coupe questions
ok like it says i got a few questions 1st i was wondering a good body shop in or around toronto to get a parking lot dent out of my door without a repaint,,,(cheap) also when i get to about 140kph she is literally falling appart.. im thinking its alignment or balance im changing to summer tires on saturday but im wondering if there is any inhearant flaws i should know about... and last but not least im wondering if i should take her for a tune, as i have kept all my fluids, engine flush, plugs, filters, etc upto date but she chugs alot and has poor pickup anyways any input would help alot thanks!!

may want to get an alignment but to be honest the max speed limit in ontario is 100km now i am not a saint and may speed a bit a 140km is fast and can happin at that speed. just my thoughts as for it chuging have you repaced the wires and maybe spme fuel injector cleaner

if it still shakes after your wheel change.
might also be your drive shaft.
I know mine used to to it at 200KM/H. Dasilva's suggested it was the end of teh shaft that goes into the tranny.
For a dent removal, just look for a piantless dent removal place.

well she starts to shake at about 80kms but if i get to 140 im afraid to go above it and its fairly consistant... but when i turn slightly to the right it stops until i straighten out again and its a loud humming sound like defening.. well hopefully my wheel change will help i will have the alignment looked at as well as the joints, suspension etc.. and archer im sorry for being a lead foot,, its that hormone in me that makes me feel like crap if someone goes by me.. stupid i know

hmmmmm........ 1 the tune . on a 2000 4.6 you should have coil overs ,wich is ,the coil sits right on top of the spark plug for each hole. as for the chuging , thats a tough 1 . could be your mass air sensor is dirty , air filter dirty ,clogged fuel filter , needs new plugs. ect. lots of variables on that 1,as for the tire issue id have to go with flynt on that 1. could be a bad wheel bearing. driveshaft would be constant. good luck and let us know how you make out. poyryd would be the guy to talk to . he SEEMS to know his stuff. lmao j/k ponyryd
