Heya guys...I was wondering if anyone had some decent advice, or suggestions on what to do in this situation.

I own a Chrysler 300M, which is now on it's third heart transplant (getting a new engine). I purchased the auto from my parents at the cost of the maintenance of a blown engine. After it was replaced, within a month each, the car was back in the shop for another engine because there were problems with each of them put in.

When the car gets back to me this time, I want to get rid of it...it's too much of a hassle. Luckily, each problem the engine was under warranty, so I didn't have to put out any extra money.

How can I rid myself of this car? I feel like it would be wrong to privately sell this pos., but the value of it (if it's functioning), is about 8k. Now I live in the city so I don't technically need a car, but I'd hate to lose the trade-in value to a dealership I suppose....any suggestions?

Sometimes, when it is cold, it can take more than a minute to engage in reverse. I haven't noticed any change in forward shifitng. It is full of fluid, and has been changed on schedule.

My car is 5 years old and when I use my left turn signal it blinks really fast, about three times as fast as what it normally does. Do you know why that is? How do I fix it?

About 6 months ago the "check engine" light was on, but I didn't fix it yet because I'm low on budget. Just now I went for a smog check and get this code P0420. The guy told me to replace the whole thingy for about $1000. Do I have another option?

I have removed the door panel. Does anyone know which wires to short out on the switch block to raise the window as it might be the switch issue. Any suggestions gratefully received.
Going on holiday shortly and need to get it closed as a short term fix and then spend some time when I get back.

I'm fixing a ladies 89 Silverado. The calipers are held in with 3/8" allen bolts. The outside of the bolts are round. The top bolt is stripped. Someone used too small of an allen to get it out, so they bent the squeal tab back on the brake pad.

I used a grinder and made 2 flat spots on the bolt to try and get it out with a crescent wrench, didn't work.

I drilled a 1/4" hole through the head and put a 1/4" grade 8 bolt in there to pry it out but that didn't work.

I have a 220 arc welder and a 110 mig.

Any ideas how to get this bolt out? My jeep has been sitting in her driveway for 3 days now, while I have her truck.

Everything just stopped working all together. The car still starts and drives fine but the speedometer stopped working and the dash message is "fuel computer data error". Odometer stopped working as well as the AC, the rear mount brake light,and license plate lights.

These are the codes that my mechanic came up with

BODY:
B2524
B2519
U1262
B2562
B1249
B2513
B1676
B1244

ABS --> code: vehicle is not responding, electri-system malfunction

ENGINE:
P0500
PV1039
P1038

The thing is that I don't know what to do next, I looked under the dash and my Front Electronic Module # is XF2T-13C788-AB

I called an online retailer, but the guy confused me even more by telling me that there is more than one computer in my car, so I don't know what to do next. The mechanic I originally took it to wants $1000 just to start working on the Van. I can't afford paying that, so I need you guys' help or at least the websites of some good mechanics who can help me. Thanks
