While I don’t think it was directly correlated to the winter as much as mileage, but I’ve replaced two rear wheel bearings this winter. Other than that, nothing else needed except a good wash and some new wiper blades. I’m itching to get my car out. ---

> [@maverick27](#): > > my muffler fell off but it was getting bad before winter. the cold just made it break off easier. one of my automatic seat belt motors wouldn’t stop going up and down so I just disabled it so its always up. my muffler fell off if you would have just left it at that i’d still be loling ---

winter finally killed the civic. it had honda cancer for a while and where part of the rear suspension mounts to the actual car rusted away, making it a death trap/unrepairable. ---

more rust, killed my wipers, scratched up my headlights, salty as fuck, lost a hub cap from sliding off the road and landing in a thankfully fluffy snowbank, nice big leak in my exhaust… but she’s happy now as a few days ago I gave her a pre-spring tune up, installed some Bosch Icon wipers, Bosch Platinum +2 spark plugs, hella xenon headlight bulbs and polished the lenses, and finally replaced the air box with a nice little cold air intake, went right on and didn’t even throw a code, now that little 1.5l is pushing 100hp and she pulls waaaaaaay harder in 1st and 2nd gear, as well as accelerates a tad quicker in 5th so she is much easier to drive on the highway ---
