1987 Acura Integra LS review from North America
"Excellent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Recently replaced the front suspension and front tires, new brakes/rotors all around, The A/C was gone, I brought it back by: Recharging the system and replacing the (defective) thermostatic switch which prevented the compressor from staying on. Now the A/C works fine. I remove rust when it occurs, keep the car waxed. Years back I put a new radiator in, new front axle, I keep it in good tune. Oh, I replaced the original radio two years ago. The car still runs well, is reliable and fun to drive.
General comments?
I will drive it until it turns to dust OR, when parts are no longer available and it becomes impractible. It has been a long term project for me. And I have a great mechanic who has serviced the car for the last fifteen years.
