Is my car moody?

Feed her proper nutrients
Maintain her

She never has a headache or moods at "that time of the month"

It used to be the weather but electronics, sensors et al have put paid to this!

Thankfully, no. Not in any of the vehicles I have owned.

Regarding perky and lethargic, it might have more to do with the driver's own mood and driving inputs rather than the vehicle's mood. Of course this is assuming that there are no other underlying issues contributing to the lethargy of the vehicle.

Almost 5 years have gone since my post. The WagonR will be turning 11 and has done 92k kms. It still has a 'mood' - notchy gears or hesitant engine response or be a 'dart' on the road. The other newer car also manifests it in its own way.

So there are days and then, there are days. Instead of wondering, I enjoy the quirkiness.
