I have a 97 accord coupe with about 160K. When locking my power locks, the door lock actuator in the passenger side door makes a loud buzzing sound. I took apart the door panel and looked at the necessary steps in service manual. I have the option to buy a replacement actuator or a new latch with...

A while ago I put a new clutch in my '82 NA 1.6L diesel VW Rabbit. Is it possible I put the flywheel back on wrong? Now that I'm doing the timing belt, I've hit a problem. I have the oil pan off so I can see when the #1 piston is at TDC according to the crank, but there is a mark on the flywheel...

I'm in the process this weekend of replacing the front lower control arms on my wife's 93 v6 xle camry. The old rear rubber bushings (large 2" dia) of each of the existing control arms is torn and I think it is the source of some creaking noise she is hearing. The new control arms came with new...

Someone from rec.autos.driving sent me here - so this is crossposted: I just bought a 1997 Hyundai Accent (5 speed/manual trans, 136k miles) and it's got a few kinks (as I expected, with that many miles). I'd like to have a better idea of what's going on before heading to the mechanic, although...

I bought a used Vision Scope a while back which didn't have any manuals with it. I was wondering if anyone may a have an idea where a guy could get a manual or a copy of one . I've searched everywhere I can think of on the internet without any luck. Although I'm actually a motorcycle/marine...

a cheezy fix is to shove the retainer back up there and put a zip tie below it. I may or may not have done this on my old daily driver VWs a few times <G> nate

Hi there. I have been looking at the new Honda Civic, it's pretty sweet, and the welds and everything are as nice as anything I have ever seen. I just have a question about the "Drive by wire" system that they are supposed to have. What happens if the Engine dies on you? In my current car, my...

Please help! Just rolled over my brother's 2003 Grand Cherokee in the snow. Half over that is. Managed to get it back on its feet, but the wheels no longer turn, in any gear (it's an automatic of course) He needs to get back to work in 2 days... I wondered if it could be a rollover sensor, and...

I bought a set of H1 SilverStars. Installed them without touching the bulbs. After almost 3 months the left bulb blew as soon as the headlamps were turned on. I returned the lamps for a replacement. After about 2 months both bulbs blew simultaneously when turned on. The car is an Acura RSX-S....

What is the best method you have found to clean an IAC sensor on a FORD 4.6l SOHC engine, or is it best to just replace it. Thanks, Stan

Hi Everyone, I have a 1986 F250 7.5l 460 engine with the Duraspark II ignition system. Would a bad ballast resistor cause my truck to not start at all? It turns over fast but never even tries to start. It was working fine and then I started messing around with the wires because my tach stopped...

Just curious, is it normal for a Delco 10SI to make an audible noise while running? I have tried two different units in my '55 Stude and both are somewhat noisy. One is the one that was in the car when I bought it. The other is a reman that I believe to be of dubious heritage, as when I...

My 1994 Aerostar just recently will not start all the time. It began when I let it get almost completely empty. It was hard to start. I put dry gas in it and it started all the time for a few days then one day it was below 1/2 tank and it would not start. Later in the day it started. Now it...

Because I bought a Craftsman and it was a POS. The bladder pops off the stem at below the recommended test pressure! I want a decent one now. Thanks Dean
