I have an 05 Titan, with a KnN intake system on it. My check engine light came on after 3 months of use with no problems. I put 500 miles with the intake easily if not more, then out of the blue my check engine light comes on. I've called KnN numerous times and the solutions they gave me only worked temporarily, so I was told to just send it back. I put my stock intake back on and my light has went away, so I know its not my truck. Has anybody encountered this with either their truck or one they worked on? Also, should I just put the intake back on and take it in for service and see what they tell me?

We have a 2000 Ford focus SE. The windshield wipers stop working while driving in the rain. We looked it up on the internet and found there had been a recall on the wiper motor. When we called our local ford co. where the car was purchased, they told us there had never been a recall on the ford focus at all. Its all over the internet that it has been recalled for many things, and these sites even list the parts # and the date of the recalls. We called a toll
free # for the ford co. that is supposed to give you a list of recalls based on your vin#. When we called this #, the recording said the same thing. No recall for this car. In the meantime, we are stuck with a car that we can't drive when it's raining. My wife was taking my 6 yr. old grandson to school when it first happened. She couldn't see anything. she slowly got into the turn lane and just had to stop and wait for them to come back on. The finally did, but they cut off 8 more times before she could get back home.

Rearender Law? If someone pulls directly in front of you and hits their brakes and you hit them because you didnt have time to stop that quick. Whose fault is it? I hear that its always the rearenders fault but how could you be expected to stop if they pull in front of you and hit their brakes. Whose insurance should pay for the damages? And who gets the ticket from the cops?

The paint is not directly noticable because it is similar in color. But I can feel the roughness on the tank etc. And there are a few small drips on the leather seat that are very noticable. Aside from my seething anger and what I'd like to do to the guy, I'd just like to get the paint off if I can.

My Dodge 2002 Stratus front passenger window is stuck all the way down and won't roll up. It is a power window, and it just won't roll up. It has done this before but has always rolled up within an hour. This happend last nite and it has been 12 hrs since and still won't roll up. I checked the fuses and it's not that because only the front passenger window is stuck the other windows are still functional. I don't want to take it into town to find out it is something that I possibly fix at home. Plus I would have to travel into town which is 15 miles away from me. It just got done snowing where I live and is about 30-40 degrees right now. So I would like to find an alternative to going to a mechanic.

3.4L
noticed a slight antifreeze leak coming from somewhere under the engine. The closest engine componant to the leaking area that I can Identify is the crankshaft pulley. I recently had my a/c compressor replaced and there was no coolant leak before then.
are there hoses that run between the engine and the frame?

I have 1994 Pontiac Bonneville SE and am looking for a way to give it more power without paying a gob of money. its got a 3.8L engine and only 175hp. cars today like a 4 cylinder nissan altima with a 2.5L engine beat it. Besides little gadgets on ebay, what else can i do? I also think there is also a rev limiter on it, because in park, it does not go past 4000 rpm. is there one in the computer? where is it and how can i get rid of it? thanks

I'm an intelligent woman, so I hate to admit this, but Im pretty much clueless when it comes to car repair. Every time I go into a mechanic shop, whether it be for a simple oil change or a flat tire, there's always something else that needs to be fixed. I've very skeptical of the easy sale of something that I dont really need, but also nervous that I may really need it (the repair)! Has anyone out there actually caught this or have advice for me to be able to detect it without having to go throught the trouble to get a second opinion?

i just recently brought a nissan 06 sentra. Its a nice car but i want something bigger (the new 07 chevy impala). I am looking to keep my new sentra for a year in order to show a consistency in payments to make my payment history look good. After that year when i go to trade my sentra in for the next car, will the money i have already paid for the sentra go to the cost of the next car? How does it all work?

Why do we have to wear our seatbelts and these crazy motorcycle people don't have to wear helmets? It really should be up to us the drive if we have to wear seatbelts. It's our lives isn't it!

The battery isn't dead, because when I turn the key, the radio and heater come on. But when I try to start the engine, it just makes this weird clicking noise and won't start. Any advice?
