Okay. Here is my newest dilemma.
=====Brakes, in more detail: Background: I recently replaced the drivers side front wheel bearing. There was a broken bold on the caliper, replaced both of those with new ones. The pads and rotor seemed quite fine. Before this, the front end would shake when I'd brake heavy; brake pedal would move almost to the floor before gaining any brake force and then it'd require more pressure. I had the pads and rotors replaced almost exactly a year ago.
After the procedure, I had the front end realigned. The brakes immediately were no longer spongy. Now I've noticed that the pulsing has increased - hinting that a rotor is warped [on the passenger side?]. Question: I suspect that the drivers side brake wasn't really functioning as the pad looked relatively unworn after a year; I haven't inspected the passenger side rotor or pads, in fear of breaking another bolt and being without (nor have I had the time.) When braking the car pulls to the drivers side, and I get a "grip and slip" feeling in the steering and car itself almost like antilock but not as smooth or controlled.
If it's the passenger rotor/pads, should I just replace that side? Should I get new pads for both while I'm at it? Is there any brand of rotors that wont warp [or as badly] for 1997 SC2's?
======= SES Light: Also, The rear oxygen sensor is done for since I suspect transmission fluid got into the connection between it and the computer. I have a new sensor, a socket for the sensor, yet I cannot get it out no matter how much force I can try. I have a picture of the sensor here:
Major thanks, and this time I am awake enough to actually be capable of spelling!
