I have a Sentra 05. A few months ago, I thought the acceleration randomly died and started working, and last week, I realized that whenever I turn on the lights (whether half with just turn signals or on the headlights), my acceleration is sooo slow, like I barely have my foot on the pedal, even when I floor it. When I have my lights off, the acceleration is fine.

Also, the brake light STAYS lit and the rear brake lights (which are supposed to only use half power or less whenever you aren't pushing on the brake) are at full brightness whenever the lights are turned on.

Also, when I put my foot on the brake and the lights are off, the dash lights up. WHAT'S GOING ON?

Whoever answers at least the acceleration issue, or the lights issues (both of them) will get a $10 Gift Card to whatever store they like online (I'll e-mail it to you). So please help me out! If you answer them BOTH, I will give you a $25 American Express Cash Card.

1996 Saab 2.0L Turbo

Car has had code (P0133) once at around 59,000 miles and once as of 70,000 (last week).

The car drives great, it shows no signs of anything off.

I don't want to replace a sensor if it is fine, but I am thinking it went bad with age.

My Ford escort is a 2002 or 2004. It has 197,000 miles so I do understand it is goign to have some problems. Well, my car shakes really bad, and it shakes REALLY bad when I'm at idle at a stoplight in Drive. WHen I put it into park, it stops some. It shakes even worse when I turn on the heat and AC. What i mean by shake, is that it seems that the engine is shaking badly and like, my steering wheel and whole front end just vibrates. My service engine soon light came on a week and half ago, I took it in and the dude replaced my fuel filter. It seemed to not shake as bad right after, but then slowly through the week it shook more and more and now my light is on again! Anybody know what could be causing this? So far my mechanic isnt finding the real problem!!!

i have a Plymouth neon 2001 and a few weeks ago i discovered a hole in the muffler so i asked my dad to change it for me, he did and i think he put a one with a bigger tip and it makes a lot of noise, that bothers me a lot, is there a way to make the muffler not make that sound without having to change it?

I have a 2004 Dodge Neon and it is leaking oil bad. I checked under the car to see if the filter was tight and the drain plug was there. They were fine. I noticed it is coming from the back right side. Oil is collecting on top of my tranny. I'm also burning more gas than usual. There is no blue smoke or smell of oil coming out of the tail pipe. Any suggestions? Or cost?

I drive an '01 Dodge Stratus and after researching the symptoms, it seems that the thermostat is stuck open. I realize that some auto work requires a professional, but some things (changing oil, replacing spark plugs, etc.) any guy can handle.

So, where does replacing a thermostat fall? I've heard its pretty expensive to get it replaced by a technician. Should I cut out the middle man and just do it myself?

Anybody have any resource for how to do work like this?

The heat in my car is broken right now. I have to get it fixed, but it looks like it may be expensive, so I'm hoping that these little portable heaters that plug into a car's cigarette lighter will at least help in the meantime. I'm FROZEN by the time I get to work, especially since I have to put the defroster on which makes it even colder, and the windows still take a long time to defrost. I figured (I'm hoping) a portable car heater could at least help a bit. Can anyone who's actually used one of these portable car heaters tell me whether or not it worked for you and why/why not? Thanks!
