My mom drives a 92 corola I think. My friend changed her fan belt when it was squeeking, and it stopped. That was six months ago and now there is another squeeking. could it be the fan belt again, or is there another belt that squeeks?

Will 30-31 inch tires fit on a stock grand cherokee (no lift). Will there be brush at all? No i dont plan on off-roading or mudding it. I believe stock wheels are 15/6. I know lifting it 2 inches would probably be best, but i would just like to know if its possible. Thanks for your time.

OK i have an 83 camaro berlinetta 5.0 V8 I was having problems with it dieing on me.. It would start chugging real bad then die. ussualy when i gave it gas. I took it to the shop and they said it was the clugged exhaust and cat that was making it do this.they fix the exhaust and they take it for two test drives and it needs towed back both times. saying that it would just die while driving, now they are telling me that the starter needs replaced because it is not disengagin correctly or something? Could the starter be the cause of its intermitent dieing problem?

My Cadillac catera 1998 car key broke. I paid $180 for a new key with a special chip in it from a lock smith. The key came from a cadillac dealer. The code in the key has been programmed. The security system is functioning however the starter will not turn over. I've disconnected the battery to reset the system with no luck. Does anyone know of a fuse or relay that could be causing the problem? And does anyone know where it is located?

It will start usually when it has been sitting there for a while. But if I ride and get off when I turn the key it does not sound like my fuel pump is coming on. It takes about 20 to 30 min. to get it started if the battery does not die first. Does this sound like a fuel pump problem or something else?

The feed pipe (where you put the transmission fluid in) threads into the side of the transmission's oil pan. The leak is in the pipe itself, on the top, about six inches from where it threads in. It drips constantly. Is there some kind of gunk that will stop it? Otherwise, I've thought of wrapping some light metal (tin can) around it and securing it with radiator clamps. Any suggestions?

I know the automatic knuckle coupler was adopted in the US for safety reasons. Why isn't a similar coupler used in the UK as well?

I have a 2001 Dodge Stratus. The mechanic of this new garage I just used told me I needed to replace my back brake pads and rotors in about 2000 miles. My car has NEVER been to the point where there was metal on metal. Why would you need to replace rotors if they have never been given the opportunity to be damaged?

I have a 1999 2x4 Jeep Cherokee, automatic transmission, 94k miles.


When I first get in my jeep and start driving it, the transmission struggles getting from 1st gear to 2nd. This usually only happens when I FIRST START driving my jeep, but after it's been driving for a while it shifts smoothly.

The problem seems to be getting worse...as it's been going on for almost 3 months now.
my brother thinks it is the TPS sensor. trans fluid has been checked and is fine.

what could be wrong with my jeep???

Right, I know this may seem daft. I know it is possible to Charter a train from certain Railway Companies for Private functions, weddings, Charity events, or Sporting Events, but does anone know how much it actually costs assuming all goes to plan? Is there a set number of people/customers, does it depend on the time of year eg. Season. Maybe more expensive near a Bank Holiday or over a weekend or even if you a particular wanting a Steam train for a 50th Birthday or wedding Anniversary etc.

Any information will be helpful!
