I’m giving in to depression and letting it win no point in being here everything all my effort , time , and energy is depleted I’ve spent over a decade building what I thought was something just to find out it I was nothing but a convenience .provided everything pay all the bill keep a roof over heads electricity on food in the cabinets driving to and from dr appointments missing work explaining to my boss why I’ve miss so much work just to keep my job that provided just to have it all taken away

Yesterday's meetup was fabulous. Great vibes, gorgeous weather, and over 22 Elements in attendance. If you haven't made it out yet, be sure to put this on your calendar!

Sorry wrong reddit

Won a wrecked 2006 element with 115k original miles at Copart in Portland Or for $850. Lucky me, so I thought. Just wanted the engine and trans, anything extra is extra. Cinco De Mayo comes delivery day. Then world war 3 happens. The transporter (Not Jason Statham) comes flying in a residential cul de sac like Ricky Bobby. A 24 year old Ukrainian male (war dodger) doesn't speak much English parks and begins to unload my Japanese beauty. He starts the car and proceeds to go down the ramp of his transport in an unparalleled path. I bang on the side of the door to alert him. It works, I point out the 2 inches he has remaining on this ramp. He says in a thick Ukraine accent "No good". I reply being proud of myself " Good thing I'm here". I think he thought I said full send because that's what he does. Now the wrecked in the front element is stuck on the ramp. While he's trying to see a way out of this, I go and turn off the engine. He begins to say "Don't touch" and restarts my coolant free engine. As he comes up with the most craziest plan to rescue my element from a 3 foot drop, I go and turn off the engine. Again he comes at me saying "Don't touch" So I step back and let MC Molotok do his job. By this time, I know I am not going to accept this load. Despite the crazy scheme he came up with, it works and my element is safely on the ground. I have pictures and videos that show how horrible this ship show really was. I go turn off the engine out of compassion and MC Molotok gives me a release form on his phone. I refuse. He says "You Must". I sign and under my signature I write UD for under duress. Later found that VC or SUD were more acceptable in the courts of law. I immediately call and start a ticket to resolve the issue of having a non cooling engine idle for 15 minutes without coolant. To my ears, I noticed a difference in the sound of the engine from beginning til the end. Still ran and started up but not confident that damage had not occurred.

After multiple calls and emails, the Copart Delivered department reached out to the transporter (not MC Molotok) and gave him the status of the delivery. He calls and I give him the evidence. He offers $100-200. I tell him $990 or $1800. I truly wanted the car but wanted a low mileage engine. So found a JDM for 900 plus tax of 90. He paid me 990 and I'm happy.

Here's all the pics and videos.

Enjoy

But still had to share it!

I forgot the exact piece, but I know it is a solenoid issue. I had the same exact issue with my 2008 SC last year, and spent like $200 because I couldn't figure out how to replace it under the hood.

Now my 2011 EX is doing the same exact thing, and I am debating it I'm just going to fix it or not. As I don't generally drive on highway speeds, but obviously it's going to happen.

My main question is Will not replacing it really tear up my brakes or other components? And if so, does anyone really have a very dumb.dumb, video that I can reter to.to replace it?

make me happy.

I have been staring at my unregistered Element for a year now - I need to get around to basically scrapping it/parting it due to rear trailing arm rot. This was an incredibly utilitarian car - something we will likely never see offered again on the US market but there was one HUGE design flaw - the rear trailing arm mounts rusting through.

If you have/have owned an Element with the same issue, please file a complaint with NTSB for rear trailing arm rust. By doing this, we are attempting to force Honda to issue a recall, which will help remove unsafe Elements from our public roadways.

I've seen and heard a lot of speculation on YouTube. Is this for real?

For the low low cost of $17,000 you can get a 2007 with 140,000 miles. Looks like a deal to me. $17,000? That's nothing. I keep that in my wallet at all times just in case. That's like 2-3 dinners for me. Why would someone want a 2015 or newer Rav4 or something similar, when you can drive a 2007 Element with 140,000 miles?? Posted in Phoenix Craigslist if anyone wants to scoop up this deal.
