i changed my girlfriends front brake pads and rotors on a 98 grand am, i also bled them. But we don't think her brakes are really any better and she doesn't have a "full brake pedal" either? What else would prevent her brakes from working really well? thank you

hi everyone i need urgent help we have a GMC sonoma truck and the truck isnt able to pass gas to the gas filter, a neighbor told us it was dirty so we changed it and put a new one, and it wont start, it makes a noise like its going to but it doesnt its not totally dead at all, so we suspect its gas not flowing through

but now the neighbor says we have to find some sort of gas flow button to make the gas flow again normally, because when the filter is dirty GMC trucks just wont run, anyway we dont knwo where this restart button is located can anyone suggest where we should look, we are pretty sure that this is teh problem and around here if we go to a mechanic we will be charged an arm/leg, anyway its a 1999 GMC SONOMA 2 WHEEL DRIVE PICK UP TRUCK,any advice would be appreciated Thanks in advance for your help, :) by the way we looked through the manual and there was nothing there,

This has happened twice to me in the last month. It is always right after it is started up, and driven for approximately 5 minutes or so. It's almost as if I have to let the car warm up for a few minutes, and it's not even cold outside. I took it too a repair shop that specializes in Volvos after the first time, but nothing was found wrong. They even commented, saying that I bought a great car. Any answers are appreciated.

My '94 Isuzu trooper has started sounding a little bit like a diesel when I turned it on. It is also very loud and makes a weird noise everytime I press on the accelerator. Also, when I turn my car off and get out, I can smell a lot of carbon dioxide. Is this a muffler problem or something else?

I have seen Bass simulators that mount under car seats and reproduce the bass thump without the noise. What are they called and where do you find them?

I have a 1992 Honda 250 xr dirtbike. I have recently crashed it and there was some damage done to the exhaust that i had to weld. the compression feels very low when i try and kick start it and it is very hard to get it started unless i push start it. there is no more cracks in the exhaust pipe, but it is noticeably louder and has much less power than it did before i crashed. what can i do for better performance?

Last year my power steering gearbox was leaking from the shaft seal on the bottom. So, I removed the gearbox and put in a new seal and reinstalled. Now, I have no power steering.
Although, I don't have a pressure tester for the pump, it seems to be pumping great. I opened the pressure hose and it is pouring out. And if I disconnect the return hose it pours out great. So, I believe the pump is good.
I jacked up the car, started the engine and turned the wheel lock to lock 50x or more with and with out the engine running. The wheel will turn by itself to the right when the engine is running and jacked up. But, it's still hard to turn to the right with the wheels on the ground even though it is easier to.
I don't know what to do now. There is no bleeder valve anywhere. The car is a 59 Plymouth Fury. Anyone with experience or knowledge of this?
Thanks

This is really bothering me! I have an '01 Celica GT-S and I replaced my old tires because of what I thought was road noise from the tires. At 55+ MPH the noise is almost unbearable. When I change lanes to the left, the noise goes away until I begin to track straight ahead... and when I change lanes right it becomes excessively loud again and slightly deadens when I track straight. I recently installed some BFGoodrich G-Force Sport tires thinking that the problem was my old and worn Yokohama AVS ES100's to no avail. The noise still remains (but is not as bad)... The tires balance is perfect, and my car doesn't pull to the left or right. What is the deal? Do I need an alignment? I hate to say it but I haven't had an alignment since '03. Help!

Yes, I have been in contact with the company. All efforts have been useless. I live in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York and was wondering if anyone knows of a good scooter mechanic in my area. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. I thank you all in advance for your assistance.

I feel like such a goofball, but I cannot find the starter on my Aurora for anything. Please, someone tell me where it is and how to get to it so that I can change it. I bought the replacement starter used so no help there. Also, I have already checked with parts stores.THANK YOU

I want to buy a new matrix. But, my friend told me to wait until dealers start to sell 2008 model because they will always decrease the price of the 2007 model ; so. I can buy a 2007 model cheaper.

Is it true?
or when do you think is the best time to buy a new car?

She is 19 yrs old and has put me literally thru hell. If I dont help her to buy a car, she will be here forever and not have a way to work. I am trying to help her get out on her own.
My risk is going to be big if I help her out.
She probably will run the tires off the car, so it has to be reliable.
She may move in with a boyfriend and let him drive the tires off the car
She may quit her job and leave me with the payments
She may wreck the car and not make the payments
She has a history of doing really ignorant things. Should I help her with the car?
I tried to help her get a car loan and they will not finance a car since she has literally worked her 1st job at Walmart for 3 days.
We live in rural america and she has no other way to get to work.
