I wondered what the law says about how long a garage must guarantee the repair work that they have carried out on a vehicle. For example, if a timing belt and tensioner was replaced but the pulleys weren't and some time afterwards the pulleys failed, wouldn't that be the mechanics fault?

Hello all,
I have a 90,BMW 525i.I live in bahrain,where there is no issues on emissions and like to remove the clogged catalystic convertor.I got opinions from two mechanics(exhaust mechanics).One says we can replace the C.Convertor by two plain pipes.The other says to replace the C.Convertor by a muffler which will protect the other two mufflers in the exhaust system.
I like my car to be silent while running.Your advices are highly apprecaited.

...after one and a half months the brakes started rubbing again. What could the problem be? Why is it such an elusive problem that the dealership can't fix it right the first time?

I have a BP Turbo engine w/tranny that i have still have not used and i got myself a 92 626. My deal is would it be wise to put this engine in my car or should i get the KLZE engine instead. The car is a shell (no engine no tranny). A few thing i wanted to know before i make my choice is, which has a better supply of mods, what are a fewest mods i should do to the engine to get the best dyno/track time results, which has the better turbo selection, how much boost can each engine handle, tranny choices and if i should get nether of them and go with somthing different. Plz Help, also if anyone has any info on price on engine mods, turbo, tranny, exhaust systems plz tell, I'm not an mechanic so simplify the stats. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

How reliable are they? Do they give you a lot of problems? I've never had one but I want one so bad!

Is there a way to clean the catalytic converter in a 95 mazda millenia?

2007-03-17 21:24:49 · 7 answers · asked by RIchey W 1 in Mazda

A few weeks ago in my Millenia I was driving it and then all of a sudden i pressed the gas and it acted as if it didn't wanna move. You press the gas and it has no power at all. The fuel filter has been replaced, the mass air flow sensor, and the spark plugs anyone know what the problem could be? Any one care to chat about the subject my yahoo messenger id is richey5703.

I drive about an hour to school every morning (all highway). If I go over 80mph all the way there, the car will sputter/jerk when I come to a stop at the exit. If I get on the gas real hard when I take off from the exit (get the RPMs up), the sputtering is corrected. If I don't get the RPMs up, the sputtering continues and is evident in Park, Neutral, and Drive. Could this be a transmission solenoid even if it sputtering is occurring in Park and Neutral? The sputtering will not occur if I keep it under 80mph, but usually I am in a hurry to get to class. I am no expert on cars, but I believe it has something to do with the oil blowing up into the valves and causing them to stick leading to improper combustion. I feel that the increased RPMs upon hard acceleration from the stop frees the valves. Does my theory even make sense? I have tried fuel system cleaner and change the oil every 5 weeks/3,000miles. I have tried Lucas oil stabilizer. Besides this issue, the car runs great. Any ideas?

Overnight, my Pickup has lost GO power at take offs, it hesitates and does so even if I have the accelerator floored.

Once on the freeway/speeds, it feels just fine to problem-runs great.

I first thought it might be the TORQE converter. was not
Then i got TWO different COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS- nothing found!

Checked: timming, EGR, Cap/Rotor/plugs/wires, Fuel filter, all wires top to bottom, O2 sensor, Cat-converter, transmission flushed, checked almost everything.

It's a 305 5.0 L V8, Auto, TBI-throttle body injection. i think my fuel pump might be the problem, or throtle position sensor? i don't what else to think, i will return to my mechanic on thursday... any opinions or knowledge would be nice thanks people.

Pleas feel free to ask me questions, i will be checking and answer at "Add details"

Driving is fine until the engine warms up. Then it starts running really rough. It's bad enough it sometimes dies when i sit at a stoplight. I can accelerate(roughly) and when I let off the gas it seems to run smooth for a second. I've changed the spark plugs and added fuel system cleaner to the gas. Nothing has changed. Please help.

Hello,

I am trying to decide whether I should buy a 1987 Alfa Romeo Milano/75 for $1500 CDN (roughly $1250 USD). This is most likely the "platinum" version. I have heard that there are problems with reliability (brakes, electrical). I am a student and although I have plenty of money to perform regular maintenance I am not going to be able to bare too many expensive replacements.

I know that this mostly depends on how well the previous owner has taken care of the car but does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

I was expecting this new 2008 Viper with an extra 80 HP to have a HEMI, but I guess now.

Has Dodge tweeked the SRT-10 engine to the point where adding a HEMI wouldnt work without redoing the enitre engine? Or that the SRT-10 engine creates more power on it's own than it would with a HEMI?
