I've a 99 camry LE, with 77000 miles on it. The check engine light started showing up yesterday. The funny thing is that the alarm also went off yesterday right before i saw the check engine light. I was surprised when i heard the alarm go off. Since i did know what the reason was, i left it alone. But when i started the car, may be one hour later, i saw the check engine light. What do you think could be the problem? How much would it cost to do a diagnostic check? Please help me. I don't want to get ripped off.

thanks
john

When they could just use an adjustable spanner or two to remove the stretcher bars and let them crash at a set of points., like Cumbria.

I understand that driving a lot of short trips is hard on a vehicle. About 10 months ago I started taking the bus to work and it is about 2 miles from my house to the Park & Ride. Recently, I have noticed that sometimes my car will not start and today I was idling at the red light and the car just shut off. I was able to start it again but I'm really nervous.

I was thinking of driving it longer in the mornings and afternoons but was curious if (1) that would improve the situation without taking it to the mechanic and (2) how long a trip is long enough. If it matters, I have a 2001 Mercedes CLK320 with approximately 84K miles.

Thanks in advance!

If I've prepaid my auto insurance policy for 6 months, and then move to a state that that company doesn't service, will my policy still be in effect, or will I need to go with a different carrier?

Hey-

My husband and I have a squeaky clean record on the road and with everything else. However I noticed if we want to rent a vehicle for a vacation I have to pay 25.00 extra a day. I am married and own a home....does any of this matter? Are there any loop holes? Thanks!

2001 Volvo S40 1.9t. Slow to start up for a while until this morning when the engine wouldn't even turn over. Just heard a rapid clicking noise (lights and stereo worked). Jumped the car and it ran fine, turned it off and it would not start back up. Put in a new battery, car started up but still slow. Now (with new battery) car starts right away sometimes and slow other times. Car is tuned up regularly and was last tuned in JAN '07. What could be the cause of the starting problems?
