I have a 1989 Toyota Celica convertible and the weatherstrip for the roof rail is worn out and rain comes into the car. I cannot find a new one, and Toyota has discontinued the item. How can I repair it? I am pretty handy, but I don't feel like making a mold for the whole peice. Is there a quick and easy way? Thanks!

I have problems with a Tahoe I just bought a month ago. (Texas) When I first took it b/c it would not start right away and they ended up doing something else. They wanted me to pay for the parts. So i told them I would not pay and they did not fix the problem. So I'm gonna go today b/c it's not working right. Could I just get another car? And will I end up paying for the repairs??

I have a 1995 Geo Metro, lol. Anyway, when I'm driving it, it feels like the car is fish-tailing in the back end. The steering wheel still appears to be aligned with the wheels, though. It's like the car is swaying back and forth in the back end. It's kinda scary. Does anyone know what this is? The front end seems fine.

Recently bought a 2007 Ford Fusion. Want to keep it looking good for years. What's the best product for protecting the dash board and interior plastics from cracking and damage? Some people say Armor All can cause cracking.

Used to use something in a green bottle called Formula 2000 or something similar, for my Buick, and it did a fine job of keeping the dash looking good. Does that exist any longer?

I have checked all the fuses in the main and auxiliary fuse boxes. The only one which was blown was the ECU which I replaced. Everything works fine apart from the speedo - the LCD display lights with total mileage and odometer which allowed me to reset to zero but the miles do not clock up, nor does the speedo needle move. Help would be greatly appreciated.

I am considering buying a car. It drives good, is clean, and appears to have been well maintained by its current owner, but he doesn't have a lot of information about this issue. The needle that reads the car's tempature doesn't work or doesn't work correctly. Sometimes is reads and stays hot-and sometimes it reads and stays cold. There are no funny noises from the engine and no other gauges indicate any type of issues. Everything looks good under the hood. I was wondering how serious of an issue this could be or not. thanks.

The car starts ok when cold and if left for only a few minutes. If left for about 30 minutes it will not start until it is cold. I have changed the coil, leads and plugs but no luck. Anyone got any ideas. It is early fuel injection 1050 cc model.
