I have a 95 Buick Park Avenue. Every time I start it, the brake warning light shows up on the dash. Along with the annoying ding-ding-ding sound. The brakes and emergency brake are both fine and working good. But the light still comes on and the sound continues the entire time the vehicle is running. Is there anything I can do? Whether it be fixing or disabling a wire or removing a fuse, etc? I can't stand to drive with that annoying sound any more!!! PLEEEZ HELP!!!

I usually park my car under the tress and notice for months that there are hard, glue-like stuff on my windshield. I'm positive that they fell from the trees. Now, when I try to take it off, its really hard to do. If I try to take clean it with a knife, it leaves nasty marks. [ Imagine that a used gum is stuck under your shoe for few weeks and you're trying to take it off].

Any suggestions or ideas as to how I can get rid of this stuff please?

The engine coolant appears to be at the right level, the gage usually reads 90 all the time but today it shot up 5 or 10 notches after about 15 minutes of driving. I've already checked the engine coolant. What else can I check that might be causing it?

I have a 2005 Hyundai Elantra. I have waited over 10,000 miles to get the oil changed this time. We use the car heavily and my husband drives it like a maniac. It is running terribly and doesn't start as quick as it used to. Should I have something special done like getting it flushed or something when I get the oil changed? Thanks

I am in school to be an auto tech, but almost everyone I talk to is not happy with the industry. I hear many complaints from techs about always having to learn new complicated stuff with no pay raise, getting screwed on comebacks, warranties, having to spend thousands on tools, etc. I would like to hear from auto techs or people who have decided to get out of the business. Thanks for your time.

I remember it came in a small-ish tub with a plastic screw-on lid, it was very thick, almost like jelly, (Jello for all you Americans out there reading this), but it wasn't even wobbly,.. it was green as well if I remember correctly, sometimes purple. Any ideas what it was called?

I have a new G6, approx 1 yr old, and the breaks have been squeaking for the past 6 months. They are new breaks and I've taken it in twice to see if they can stop the noise. They told me there's nothing they can do to stop the noise and it's driving me crazy, no pun intended. Any suggestions?

In August 2006 my a.c. was recharged and dye was added. In spring 2007, it was blowing warm. Took car in and they saw no leaks. They recharged it and it worked fine, now 5 weeks later it is blowing warm again. To lose freon this quickly, doesn't the a.c. have to have a leak?

I was told by someone that you can buy a can of clearcoat and spray it on an aluminum engine to prevent corrosion. He said to have it running while applying to keep out of moving parts. Just wondering if any mechanics out there know if it's safe for my engine? Could it heat up and damage? Would it affect the belts and other moving parts?
