To my disappointment, chilton nor haynes have a repair manual for
tercels 1995 or later.  I am a newbie, short of forking over money for

Is there an online site where I can get information about the content
of today's automobiles and where their parts are made?  I would like to
share that information with some of my fellow workers who are
fanantical about their Fords.

i have a 1991 corolla with about 140,000 miles on it.
a few months ago a noise started happening and i figured it was just a
plastic piece or something loose underneath the car, but now it's
