Maintenance & Repairs - October 2006

It's starting to get cold and my shocks are starting to creak alot. They look fine. And after I drive for a while they're as smooth as when I first bought em'. Is this normal or should I have it checked out.

Can anyone help me determine what could be the culprit? Yes, the air blows fine, on all levels. Yes, I do have plenty of anitfreeze/coolant, and No, there is no leaking or dampness on the passenger side. So, I don't think it is the heating core. I just don't get it. Can there be a fuse out or something?

How many miles do you think you could get out of that. It has 100,000 on it right now. Also I am a new driver so how many years do you think it will take me to get to the point where the engine will just die?

I need to find out how many oxygen sensors a chevrolet lumina, 1995 have and where are they found. Would I need to disconnect the catalytic converter to get to it?
Also, can the car be run without the oxygen sensors. What would happen?
Thanks

It's a 1992 (yes I know) 1.6 GLXi with alloy wheels. Someone has just knicked one of the hexagonal parts that screw onto the outside of the wheel (they have the Mitsubishi logo on).

Anyone know a) what they're called and b)can I easily get a replacement - i.e. are they standard?

Thanks. And before any bright spark says get a new car this one still goes like a bomb after 135,000 miles and has never once let me down.
