What is the fix called for the Sunroof going backwards?
(Ive gone twice to get that fixed, with no luck)

What is up with that squeak that I hear when people
get off my car? When someone gets off my car
its sounds like they weight like 500lbs....it squeaks as they get off

I hear crickets chirping, but maybe it's just that I've been awake for nearly 24hrs :confused:
The squeak is the parking brake. Try and see if it still squeaks with the parking brake disengaged. I don't know if the dealer can fix it or not, so let us know.
Ehhh, my sunroof always goes backwards when I open it. The fix would probably be called "unreproducible" by the techs. :)
Are you talking about the sunroof headliner coming off track? I saw some details on that once at .org. If the search still works there, you might try it.

Yeah, I'd probably get "Sunroof? No, thats not available. The sunroof only comes with a car. You'd have to buy a car to get the sunroof".

yes, I got the same story from my dealer for the same squeek. they claim that it's the brake shoe surface (the asbestos part) squeeking against the drum surface.

I'm not in a hurry to fix it myself but the squeek sounds more like the sides of the brake shoes squeeking against unlubricated brake "tables." for those of you that have replaced brake shoes, the "tables" are the little raised bumps on the backing plate. you're supposed to lubricate them.

I'm going to visit the mall today to see if they have the Phoenix coupe model of that exact same series. I have ordered it since January ~3 and it wasn't even here 2 weeks ago. :mad:
