Cars & Transportation - 18 May 2007

I know there are some manuals in the library that might give some rough idea how to do it.

If I go to a electronic shop they would charge me 100 $. My stereo costs 250$ . Does it worth to go and ask professionals? Is it dangerous to do it myself? Do you know any websites that can help me how to install that stuff?

What actually might go wrong ?

thanks

What makes me wonder is how a lot of the Chrysler 300C and the Crossfire are built and designed from Benz components, the 300C being formed with a lot of E-Class sedan hardware and the Crossfire using many components from the SLK. If the Benz side of things is no more, will Chrysler have to give up on the 300C and the Crossfire? That would suck.

My Mazda 6 currently displays fuel economy as litres per 100 miles (l/100mi). Whilst I can manually convert this into MPG, is there a way to adjust the display on the car to automatically show MPG rather than l/100mi?

The default setting when I got the car (from new) was l/100mi and it's pretty useless as all economy figures these days are calculated in MPG.

Any ideas please?

I have a 2003 Volvo S40.I started heating a ticking noise when my air conditioning was on. I turned off the AC to make sure that that was the source of the noise, and sure enough, it is. The ticking noise becomes faster as the fan speed increases. Is it the fan itself? Is it the motor? Any ideas on reapir costs?

What are some symptoms of the thermostat being stuck open? Last fall while it was still warm, the temp slowly climbed to 230F then settled back to its normal operating temp. it now operates within temp on the gauge, but i get no real strong heat like a GM should be providing. I suspect the stat is stuck open after having been stuck closed and if this is the case, do I replace it since im good with my wrenches and sockets, or do i not want to fool with it and have a garage do the work?

Thanks ahead of time as always.

I have seen other riders strap there helmet to the side of their bikes while riding but it seems that my bike doesn't have that option. Maybe there is something I can buy.

That's really only worth 7.4K. I want to trade it in for something better. No matter which new car I pick, the price is gonna set me back. But won't I be in a better position with a nicer vehicle?

A friend came by to visit one night. He parked his bike in front of 1 of my 3 garage doors. He sleeps in because 2nd shift. I went to leave.... and didn't want to hit his motorcycle. I moved it... rather dropped it! It is scuffed... the windshield. Scuffed the item similar to front quarter panel.... Most likely can be buffed.... I feel I am 80% at fault. He really doesn't want to take my cash... How can I repay him.

I currently have social,domestic,pleasure and connection with the businesses of the policy holder insurance on my car.I am aware this covers me to drive to my place of work,should I be asked to go and help out at another establishment for them am I then covered to drive there.
I was told that I was covered aslong as I wasnt carrying passengers for them,this was told to me by my boss.
I am unsure of this though as I have no form of business insurance
