Oh no...something went wrong with my car - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #48808 7 posts Started by netrata
Ok, I didn't notice anything while driving today except for a bit of shaking near 80 mph. And as I came home, I noticed a dark green sludge on my wheels. I don't know where it came from, and I won't be able to take a look at the car till next week Tuesday (I'll be visiting a neighbor island to see family for the weekend). Anyone have any idea what it could be? Here's some pix of what i'm talking about:

yup, torn boots.....
mine went out before the re-build at the track, things got messy:S
Yeah, i'm trying to see if I can bring the car to a repair shop today so I don't wear it out. It ain't clicking so it should still be good.
