I have trouble with a loud groaning noise coming from somewhere in the front of the car when both the AC and the CD player is on. It's worse when accelerating through the first couple of gears. This is in a 2004 Pontiac Sunfire. Is this normal?

I have a 2003 Ford Explorer that I need serviced at its 60,000 mile mark. Rather than taking it to the dealer and getting cleaned out, I was wondering if anyone knew a reputable mechanic in the Pensacola area that wouldn't rip me off and do a great job.

I recently bought a Dodge Stratus R/T. I know that it's engine, along with most of the rest of the car, is actually built by Mitsubishi, and has the same 3.0 V6 as the Eclipse GT, but don't know and can't find out if performance parts for the Eclipse will work on my car. I'm not looking to do too much to my car, just a few things to increase hp, etc.

I have a petreol powered car and need to replace its worn out turbo, I happen to have a turbo from a diesel cat gathering dust. Research so far shows that the diesel turbo will produce 8 psi of boost without modification whereas the turbo on my produced 5 psi before I modified it to run at around 8 psi.
I ask the question because petrol cars reach higher revs and reach them faster than diesels.So would the tubo be spinning faster than it is designed to if used on a petrol engine?

The temp gage went all the way to "H" but the engine didn't die. Is it O.K. to drive it to the service station which is a mile away or should I have it towed? If I drive it that distance will I ruin the engine?

1) Parking brake light not always coming on, or has a slight delay,
when brake is engaged. Sometimes have to do it a second time.
Appears to be working, though. I've drifted back and vehicle stops when engaged.
2) Driver's side seat belt not staying latched. Slips out. Spring appears to be broken. Is this something I could fix myself or does the entire seat belt assembly have to be replaced?
Thanks!

I need to replace my front pads on my Olds Silhouette (92K mi & plan to keep her for a few more years if she can make it). The rotors are perfectly smooth (no grooves), thin and would be under specs if turned, but good enough for another round before they need to be replaced. I'm not sure which type of pad to choose. I've been told, on a thinner rotor, semi-metal pad would eat away the rotor faster than a ceramic pad and vice versa. I'm looking at either Akebono ceramics or GM semi-metallic pad ... any advice is greatly appreciated?

I am restoring a 62 Chevy Truck. I have looked in catalogs for this particular part and cannot find it. I am looking for the hinge/bracket that the glove box door attaches to. The cardboard glove box also slides into 3 clips on this bracket. I can find the glove box and all other parts to it except this bracket. Is there any special heading to look under, or is there any special catalog that has more items than usual?

Thanks
