OK, I am not sure if any of this is interrelated, but there are three major issues I'm having with my car right now and I'm hopin someone can help me out here:
1. The car has an intermittent problem where reverse will not engage. I have read elsewhere here that this may be a problem with plastic bearings... has anyone had any success fixing this at home with the manual shift cable adjustment?
2. When reverse is not fully engaged, I can still take my key in and out of the ignition. However, sometimes the car will remain "on"- like the radio might still play- when the key is out. I've had this run the batter out if I let it sit for an extended period of time.
3. The door does not want to unlock at times, so I've been keeping it unlocked (thank god nobody wants to steal this thing- the stereo's crap and it depreciates every time I look at it). It will lock but unlocking requires several attempts an it seems that it just kind of randomly "chooses" when to engage and unlock.
Has anyone else had this trifecta of problems?
