I have a Sony EXM 302 car stereo amp, it's also 2-channel bridge-able and says Mosfet on it. I can't figure out where to tell how powerful it is. I want to run it to a 15", probably on the mono to bridge it? anyone know? The 15" is 400max, best on 300watt says the Powerbase brand speaker.

I am getting repeating DTCs, P0172 mainly, about right bank too rich.
I seems to happen right after I get a strange high gear shift.
Can't tell exactly what is happening, but it feels like it is shifting from OD to 4th and back within 1 sec. Then the chk light and traction control light come on. The DTCs don't seem to relate to anything. But then that studder could be the engine.

Does this sound like a tranny issue? Mine is nearing 107,000 mi which is suppose to be the cutoff for Honda fixing a tranny issue.

1) Why is it, that for a CONGESTION charge, if you have a low/ zero emmision car, you don't have to pay as much or anything?
Shouldn't it be a Low Carbon Charge?

2) Do people just pay the fare anyway? I was talkin to a taxi driver when we went down there (we live in Durham) and he said at the start it was quieter, but now people just pay it.
Is that right?

The car has had the fuel pump replaced, along with the fuel filter, after which time the car started to stall out at idle. I then had the distributer replaced along with the spark plugs. What could be some of the problems? What posible sensors could be fouling out? As there is no check engine light on.

well i got pulled over because the cop could not see my license plate....lame huh? and i had it just was bent back into the grill so he went on and asked for insurance, and shame on me i dint have it :( (i know, i know..) that was my fault and i saw the ticket coming for that,but not for the muffle is just an after market muffler, and its so obvious that there are cars and trucks out on this same town that are as loud or even more, so they took the car and im concerned about the wrecking or damaging the car when they towed it(car has a body kit and new paint job), IF thats the case who is to blame? and should i do something about the fee for the muffler? and what would be a good statement.

i also need insurance now and am 20 yrs old, its really expensive everywhere i looked.

My a/c does not always blow cold air this summer so I got some r134a and a hose w/gauge from AutoZone (great price).

The air was set to max and on the highest setting. The gauge reading was normal (35-40), but then after a few minutes I saw it climb to 70 as the compressor cycled off. I thought when on max, the compressor did not cycle off???

Does this indicate a problem with the compressor or something other than just freon?
