What is the estimated cost to replace the front pads and rotors on a 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier? The car was squeaking and this is what Midas said needed to be replaced.

What would be the cost to do it yourself, and how difficult would it be?

My engine started making a "tapping" sound last night on the way home from work. We checked the oil and water and they were fine. Being a female, of course I don't know a lot about cars, so I don't know what else might make this sound under my hood. Help!!! It's an older car, 1992 Pontiac Sunbird and it has always ran great. I don't want to sink a lot of money into it (can't), so who can suggest what might be wrong?

When I turn the key, it takes a long time to crank, but if I pause for 5 seconds, it starts right up. It seems that if the engine’s warm, I can gently accelerate, but if it’s cold, the engine stalls as soon as I tap the gas, and then it continues to stall and won’t stop. According to my friendly neighborhood mechanic, the problem is that the engine isn’t receiving fuel, so we replaced the fuel filter, dumped some cleaner in the gas tank, and reset the electrical system, but nothing made a difference. Also the problem started with it taking a long time to crank, but it had no trouble with stalling or accelerating until the morning when it pretty much died. My mechanic is stumped.

I know you've seen these trucks driving around. Usually it's a white bobtail truck or some other white vehicle. Almost always in black print it will say fish on the side or back. Why? It's weird to me.

I'm looking into a job on a survey vessel and the only thing I'm worried about is being so uncomfortable that I can't enjoy my job. There is no specific vessel that I would be working on, so I'm just looking for general information. Also if anyone has anything they would like to share concerning living on an oceanic survey or research vessel I'd love to hear it.

I'll confess. I was going above the speed limit a few days ago and I was caught. I was in a hurry, and I shouldn't have. I was pulled over and told I was going 63 in a 55 mph zone. I didn't argue. Well, on my way to work I noticed that he had written the ticket to say I was going 53 in a 40 mph zone which definatly was not true since the thruway was 55 and didn't hit 40 until AFTER the railroad tracks. Where he had caught me was BEFORE. At work, I had my mother check it out to make sure I was right. I was. She found the guy on the side of the road pulling over other people and told him how he had made a mistake. Well, should this get thrown out now? Calling the office this morning and found out he CHANGED it. Can he do that? I have the original ticket which still states it was 53 in a 40 mph zone. . .Should I continue to fight it or just give up?
