Car Makes - October 2007

It seems my new beetle breaks down more than it should. I drove a much cheaper Ford Escort before and it never broke down. In the two years I have had it I have given VW dealerships more than3k in repair. It seems the warranty is always "not going to cover this" or has run out. Do you have problems with your new beetle too? Or do I just have bad luck?

What is that logo for Acura's cars? I was talking with some friends the other day; one said that it was just an "A" while another said it was actually some sort of engineering tool.

So doesa anyone know for sure? Please provide a link of evidence as well.

None of the interior lights in my '98 Grand Caravan come on when I open any of the doors (including truck).

I can turn them on manually by pressing the individual light or turning them all on with the dash control but not by opening the door. Any thoughts on what would be causing this issue and how to repair it?

Thank You,
-Jim

This issue is causing overdrive to go off and gives it shift shock and hard shifting in lower gears. No slippage of tranny. It has fluid.

I need the "NISSAN" letters that are on the front of the rack (the "air dam"). Someone told me that I would have to purchase the entire air dam @ $200 because the decals aren't sold separately. Is this true?

I need to change my headlight bulb on my 1999 Oldsmobile Alero. I got the bulb but it didn't come with instructions. So if anyone can help that would be great. Thanks everyone.

I have been trying to figure out why I keep blowing the ECMB fuse on my sons 1990 G20 van. It blows as soon as it is replaced. I checked all visible wires for shorts. One of the injector wires was flattened by the air cleaner. But Insulation was not broken. I can't find anything else. Do I need to check all wires under the wire looms? I replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel pump relay. The fuel pump does run when the key is on. I tried pulling the connectors off of the fuel pump relay and the oil pressure switch. Still blows. Pulled connectors off of other sensors. Still blows. Removed the connectors from the computer. Fuse doesn't blow. The computer was just laying along side the drivers seat. Could it be a bad computer blowing the ECMB fuse? Or is it just a problem within the fuel pump circuit? I disconnected the harness leading to the fuel pump. The connector is underneath the van coming out of the engine compartment. So that eliminates any short from there to the fuel pump.

The check engine light came on about a week ago and the car revs up to 6k rpms at only 70 mph. I'm thinking its stuck in 1st gear but when i try to change it to anything but drive it does not change. It sounds really bad like its struggling when i drive it...

I have no idea how to fix ANYHING under the hood but could do anything simple if told how..

Has anyone else had this issue? I really dont want to buy a new tranny. The car only has 85k miles on it. Any help? the more detailed the better... :)

Ok...this is weird. I have a 98 Nissan Maxima and it was raining last Friday. I put the defrost on and instead of clearing up the windshield, it started to make it worse and fog up the whole car.
When the defrost or now even the heater go on. The vents will actually start blowing steam out because of the cold, so now the car is like a sauna. It also smells like coolant. Anyone got any ideas??? I guess I will need to take it to the car shop, but I'm curious to find out what happened.
