I put in a new battery and the problem persists. I hear a "click" sound everytime I turn the key. I have to turn it multiple times then wait a minute. Then turn it again and it starts. It happens every morning. Quite frustrating!! Any idea of what the cause is?

I have a fairly new Chevy truck with a factory radio in it. I like to listen to AM stations but they always pickup engine and AC noise. Is there anything I can install that would help get rid of this? Thanks.

The Hyundai has been properly maintained for the last 5 years. Same owner. The car recently had a new timing chain, tires, brakes and wheel alignment in the last 8 months. It was just broad-sided in a car accident and the two driver side doors need to be replaced. There has been no damage to the frame and it drives well. Are additional repairs warranted on this high mileage car? Is it worth it? Can I expect to get more mileage out of the Hyundai to make these repairs worthwhile?

I bought a 2003 Toyota roughly about a month ago. There were some things wrong with it (headlamp not bolted right,weather stripping) they were fixed. I took the car to my mechanic, who informed me that the car had been in an accident and the L/front fender and hood and been repainted. There are dirt bubbles underneath the paint he pointed out. He put this on his report.

I was not told this at the dealership, the salesman did pull a carfax, but nothing was reported. I have contacted my Attorney, who is looking into it. Any suggestion about what can be done (if any) Or if any of you have had similar situations please advise. Only serious answers please no silliness. Thanks!

The pedal alternates between being slightly sticky and having a slight amount of play. Does it require immediate attention?

I left the roof open and it rained inside the car. They are completely soaked! (and the arm in the middle of the seats, etc.) I'm afraid that if I leave them to dry, it'll take too long and get moldy...

By singling out the most profitable oil company Exxon/Mobil, and not buying their gas, do you think that would drive down prices.

I think if every American bypassed this company and bought gas elsewhere, it would drive down prices. Exxon is the most powerful and has the most to lose. Sure, some of the profits woul;d end up at other stations, but when Exxon has been "hosed" just move onto the next.

I have a 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport and sometimes when I turn it on, it sputters. After the initial sputtering, it evens out and I start driving...it sputters a little bit more then is good until I turn it off. It depends how long I have it off...sometimes it starts right back up and other times it takes a while to start. If it takes a while to start, it sputters...if it starts within a short amount of time, it usually does not sputter. What could it be?

overdrive off, a button still works to change the rpm of engine but it still feels like it takes to long to shift. could this be a simple problem or one that needs a pro to look at it.

I was driving up a steep hill and all of a sudden the check engine light came on and both the speedometer and odometer stopped working. Everything else is fine though. Any ideas on what would need to be looked into? It's been like this for a while now and I need to get it fixed.

Thanks a bunch for any help.
