So because my old man has been busy the past few years and atm my moms been driving his car and hes driving the truck I drove before I got my grand prix and yesterday he called me and said I needed to look at his car cause mom said it overheated and she stopped and added some coolant. So he said go check it out cause he was sure she got the wrong kind and could have even put it in the washer fluid.
So I go pop the hood and for starters it was pretty much black it was so dirty I know for a fact it hasn't been cleaned under the hood for 40k miles and but I could still see the coolant level cause of course she put some generic blue coolant in there and not dex cool.
so I got to looking around the thing and checked the air filter which was the one it left the car lot with in 06 and I could not belive it there were cigerets band-aids half birds etc... so I had a K&N drop in that I put in there, and I checked the oil if you can even call it that because it was more like black brown water with chunks in it. Turns out the oil hasn't been changed in like 60k so yeah... this car pretty much needs everything and I don't even know where to start but I doubt I'm even going to do anything cause I'm not putting money and work into there car like that when they could have asked me before or done it themselves its a shame to see such a nice 06 get neglected like that though
