code 401 in the book reads as follows (exhaust gas recirculation flow insufficient) what does this mean and where can the sensor for this problem be located. the car had been parked for three weeks prior to this lite coming on. the obd11 reader puts the light out but it comes back on after about 30k's.

My mom's car insurance covers me...but they are threatening to take me off her insurance over something stupid.

Does anybody have any idea of how much more expensive it is if I get my own car insurance under my name instead?

I'm 23, male, in Ontario, Canada.

(Not trying to do it here!)

I have no idea how to handle it best. I don't need a new car, it's paid off, should I sell it to the dealer from whom I bought it? I don't really want to deal with classifieds...etc...

I have a 1991 Chevy Caprice and after I drive for a certain limit of time the car will not turn back on after being turned off. This happened to me and my neighbor seen me in trouble so he came over and banged on the bottom of the fuel cell while I started it. It started right up but it does the same immediately after I shut it off. He told me the fuel pump is old and going out. The fuel filter was changed less than 2,000 miles ago. Is this true that I will need a new fuel pump soon or could it be the relay to the fuel pump???

I've been getting condensation on the inside of my car windshield that's causing the seatbelts to mold (gross, I know) and I was told it's a broken heating core. What is a heating core? Can I get the problem fixed at Jiffy Lube or something like that?

I wonder why people would buy a Toyota when you can keep your money in US.And don't tell me Toyota's are more US than GM,Ford or Chrysler.Almost half of Toyota's are imported and because the Jap goverment and Toyota work together to keep the Yen undervalued they make a $4500avg gain on each vehicle imported.Compared to US car companies they employee only a fraction of US workers(about 350000 to 40000).Their quality has been declining with transmission and engine problems,so why do you buy them?

I bought the Amp and Speakers for $1200 altogether but I don't remember what they were seperatly. How much can I get out of it?

My car is at 102,000. The manual makes no mention of the belt needing changed. Ever? My last car, a Honda CR-V did make mention of it, got the belt changed and 10,000 miles later a teenager cutting school slid on some snow and totalled it :-(. Do I need to do anything now?
