Maintenance & Repairs - August 2007

I have a 94 Saturn SC1, and it just started making a weird sound like the muffler was going......only thing is, the sound isn't coming from the back of the car, it's sounds like it's coming from the right front area and once it's warmed up and driven a bit, the sound isn't as loud. I checked to see if there were any holes under the car around the muffler and I couldn't find any, nor did I notice anything loose, but I'm not a mechanic so I could've missed something. Any ideas what it might be?

I purchased a convertable that used to belong to a smoker. I didn't realize it at the time, because the test drive was accomplished with the top down! When the top goes up, the cigarette smell is really apparent.

I have already replaced the entire in-dash climate control module to no avail. What else should I check?

The A/C works great on fan levels 4 and 5 but the fan does not operate at all on the first 3 settings. Also, the Recirculate button often turns itself off to the Outside Air mode.

I have 2004 Honda CR-V(LX) 4 wheel drive with 90,000 miles.
Lately, I've noticed some dragging when I turn the wheel or back up the car while turning the wheel. It happens in low speed.
Similar symptom happens when I apply brake on about 40 mph.
My mechanic told me it's warped brake and needed to replace 2 front rotors, 2 rear rotors and new pads since he could not cut the rotors.(I've never had brake done and It has about 90,000 miles on it)
Can I have a second opinion ? I'd appreciate your advice.

I left the windows cracked open overnight, but no difference in the morning, still very strong smell when you get inside the car. It is behind driver’s seat spilled into the carpet for about 18 hours now.

I saw a sign in front of a grocery store that says.Customers who complain are our best freinds because it helps us to improve our business.Did they ever talk you into something that you don't need just like a salesperson and should they be reminded to give respect to what the customer request?

My service engine soon light came on my 1997 nissan 200sx and I had the vehicle scanned at Autozone in which the code for throttle position sensor came up on the scanner. I bought the part and attempted to change it. I had a difficult time changing it myself and decided to have a mechanic change it the next day. The next morning when I started the car to go to work the light wasn't on anymore. So now I have been driving the car for a couple of days and the light still hasn't came on. Does this mean that the fault code fixed itself or should I drive the car a few more days to see if the fault reappears before getting my money back for the part that I purchased.
