So I was leafing through my latest issue of Discover Magazine (October), and saw on Page 76 a large, full-page ad for Harbor Freight that includes what they call a "Super Coupon." The Super Coupon can be used on any single item in the store to receive 20 percent off. It can even be used for...

I test drove a used one with 50,000 miles. I liked it alot,. Are these good vehicles? I had someone tell me to get the 6 cylinder model that the engine was better as well as the mileage. Is this true?

I have a 200-4R tranny in a 1988 Olds and having problems with the lock-up converter. When cold for the first few miles with the selector in the D or D(O) position all is fine, but after that the converter will lock up every time it shifts into second, bogging the engine; no poop and terrible...

Hi, any one out there know what the spark plug gap for a 2000 Toyota Corolla 1.4 vvti is? Thanks in advance...

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

The shop manual for our 2000 Accord 4 cyl shows a block coolant drain plug under and to the left (facing toward) of the oil filter. But the only plugs I see are the engine oil drain plug, and a 10mm allen head bolt directly under the filter. Could it be the allen head bolt, or do some Accords...

I have a 6 cylinder 2000 olds Alero. When I start it from a cold start it idles rough for about 60 seconds and then runs fine. As long as the engine is warm I have no problems. If I try to drive off while it is idleing rough the check engine light will come on and and go off after it starts to...

The thermostat of my 2000 altima reach the stable position and even the heater is working ok. Now if i step on the gas fast, then the thermostat needle comes down, fluctuates and even touch "C". If I step off the gas, then it again comes back to stable state(middle of the meter). if i keep running...

I'm looking to see if anyone else has experience with a similar problem. I have a 2000 Chevy Astro with a power window that only raise one or two inches at a time. After a bit of motion, I need to let the window 'rest' for about 1 minute, then it will again raise one or two inches. This problem...

My heater heats and the ac cools but the dampers don't work. I get air out the floor outlets and the defrost outlets together but never out the dash vents. Switching to different output positions on the heater switch doesn't seem to have any affect. Anyone got a clue? jim

I have a 2000 Bravada with bad upper and lower ball joints. We jacked the vehicle from the frame behind the door and supported it on the lower control arm. Starting first on the driver side we next removed the caliper and bracket that holds the brake pads. The caliper was tied up out of the way. We...

We bought this car about a year ago with 90000 miles on it at auction. Shortly after we began driving it we began to notice a very slight vibration when backing up. I learned that there was apparently a problem with the all wheel drive on these cars and a mechanic suggested draining and refilling...

Short story, I've been driving for almost 50 years and I've never needed or appreciated ABS. My ABS started acting up a couple of years ago, probably due to one or more bad wheel sensors, (a known issue on these cars). I pulled the fuse, the ABS light came on and there were no more intermittent...

I have a 2000 Bravada that has the "hopping" problem during slow speed turns such as parking lots, etc. The transfer case fluid has been changed twice in 2.5 years, the last time being a year ago using the recommended GM fluid. The hopping has gotten worse and a GM dealer told me since I have a...

I was told that to address the "crow hopping" issue on this car to try changing the transfer case fluid. I picked up two liters of "Autotrak 2" at the GM dealers the other day and was getting set to drain the fluid to change it this morning. I noticed on the lower passenger side of the transfer...

We bought this car with 90000 miles on it about a year ago. From the very beginning we started to notice a slight shudder when backing up. We took the car in to a friends place and he changed the blue fluid in the transfer case. He said that there was a problem with the All Wheel Drive function...

Brake job was done on the car. Now once the car is put in gear, and starts down the road, the ABS light comes on at the top of the gauge area, and the TRACTION OFF light comes on at the left of the gauge area. Was a code set by replacing the brake pads & rotors? If so, How do I erase it?

Love my 2000 Regal - never had any problems but I'm a bit puzzled right now. I've just bought a Neo iOn Ipod connector and the manual says my car is meant to have a socket for it to connect to in the trunk!! I cannot see one. I'm guessing it's meant to be an 'optional' CD changer connection but...
