My car has been sitting in the garage since Friday night. :P

my oil temp gauge doesn't work..stupid cold.

I lost my front lip skirt somewhere in the snow in the last couple days... there's only a little bit hanging down from the drivers side....

Well that's a shame, it really sounds like the clutch is not engaging (assuming the belt is still turning the pulley). Should be a couple hundred for the part from mazda. Not sure if there's anything actually serviceable in it (would have to ask someone else?). On the bright side, you should be able to still blow hot air on the windows, it just won't be dehumidified and will likely frost up the inside of your windows quicker.

Cause Christmas isn't expensive enough. Hey Santa, changed my list. Bring me an ac compressor.

Just go full racecar! Delete it + add pulley + ??? = profits!!!

That really sucks though... AC compressors are not a cheap part

Oh rough, that's even worse :(

Probably a seized bearing then.

^^^Was just going through the workshop manual. The outer bit on the bearing still might be turning (fingers crossed and I haven't smelled any rubber burning). It was just a quick look before work. I'll have to take a better look when I get home and have the father in law help. Hoping this is the case and I can at least drive it back home to T.O. and have Jimmy look over it.

only Mr Wilson needs A/C in winter

Only when I was leaving the car wash yesterday. Had to drive the firt few minutes with my head out the window as the windshield wasn't defrosting. Hoping when I take a look that the plug has just fallen off and needs to be plugged back in.

I don't use defrost

So far my only issue in the cold is the fact that my horn now sounds retarded. It's pretty quiet and sounds even pussier than it normally does.
