Good Lord. This is beginning to sound certifiable |

You need to find new mechanics. Why would you pay for parts that made the door worse? Talk to the service manager, tell him to remove the new parts and put the old ones back since they couldn't fix the problem. If that doesn't help, call the area manager, and if no help, move up the food chain. People in Atlanta used to buy Hondas (my wife was one) not because the car was so great, (which it is) but because a guy named Gordon had a repair shop near Peachtree-DeKalb Airport that only worked on Hondas and Accuras. The man did not only hire the best mechanics he could find (and paid commensurately), but he was scrupulously honest. If Gordon said you needed something, you could be sure it was so. The best recommendation if buying a used Honda was a set of service records that showing all the work had been done by Far East Motorworks. People who tell you that bit about "doing it yourself" are wrong. The unexamined assumption behind the statement is you have the time, money and knowledge to be able to do the job yourself and correctly. If you need something done, do some digging around and find out who the best person to do the job is and then expect to pay a bit more for the work to be done right. |

I don't even attempt to work on engines anymore. To complicated and I don't like getting greasy |

Keep older cars, simpler. I have to pull an manifold off my Chevy truck and replace a broken bolt. This will be fun. |

Be careful , the parts house might be in cahoots with local law enforcement and you'll wind up with a tracking device

The last time I was under a vehicle was while replacing a clutch on a 1977 Dodge B100 van with a 318 and 3 on the tree. Laying on the driveway with the transmission resting on my chest... I decided I was too old for this shit and I haven't worked on one since. |

I replaced all the steel brake lines on my truck. I had to make and bend allk the lines. This was the hardest and time consuming job I have ever done. |
