| Car acts like it wants to stall, shifting weird | 26 Aug 2005 15:01 GMT | 11 |
I went over a speed bump perhaps a bit to fast this morning and I immediately had problems with the car shifting into gear (it is an automatic). After coming to a stop and starting again it acts like it wants to stall and then shifts into gear, next stop

My car keeps dying, and it doesn't care where it does it! The coil was changed, and it ran a little better, but a day or so later, started dying once again, and this time the check engine light came on. A friend of mine, did a tune up, replaced the spark plugs, wires and also ...

Hi, I have an 89 Ford Aerostar, and recently I replaced all my vacuum hoses. The auto parts store didn't have the exact same size as my old hoses, but the kid working there told me I could use smaller hoses. I said fine and bought the six feet I needed.

| 1995 cavalier brakes | 25 Aug 2005 23:27 GMT | 21 |
Hi, My 95' Cavalier has 201,000km on it. The rear brakes lock up REAL easy. It's very unsafe. I have replaced both rear drums and adjusted the brakes. That made the lockup not as bad, but still unsafe. The tires will only lock at slow speeds (under 20km/h). But braking from

I'm pretty sure I need to change the gearbox on a Skoda Felicia estate 1.6. Its making a horrible grinding noise which goes away when I press the clutch, it isn't the cv joints (I've checked that) the loud click happens about 2 times every second, and if I raise the front of the car ...
