Maintenance & Repairs

I have a 2001 Cavalier, and the first two fan speeds for the heater do not work. It only works on the last two. Will this be a really expensive repair?

I recently noticed oil spots on the driveway under the front drive side, close to the inner wall of the tire. The spots are small, maybe an inch in diameter and whatever is, it's water resistant b/c the spots don't get as wet as the non spotted area when it rains. There isn't a puddle or any significant amount of 'stuff' for me to try to check what it is...Any ideas?

I replaced the battery in my Nissan Sentra and got the car to start up immediately. Upon trying to restart the car after making it home it will not fire up. There was a lot of corrosion on the terminals, of which I removed. After this the car started up again, however, the next time I tried again it wouldn't start (engine would not crank). I've been having to remove the connection at the positive terminal then reseat it to get the batery to start the car. I've had to do this each time I start the car. Does it sound like the connection at the positive terminal is not secure? Or could I have other electrical problems with the car?

For the past couple of weeks there have been little oil spots on the driveway where I park my '96 Cadillac Councours. I didn't drive it for a few days and now there is a huge puddle under the car. Anybody have any ideas where it's coming from and how I can fix it? Thanks!

drivers side and onto the floor mat (in my car)?

At first I thought "maybe" it was the antifreeze (cause it's yellow) but I don't know that the antifreeze is on the driver's side of the car (since the container for antifreeze is on the passenger's side).

I need to know just what it is that I need to get fixed (and maybe even how costly it might be...is that a minor fix?).

I"m trying to lift up my car and i'm not really sure where to place the jack stands. There are holes along the frame and control arm that might work. But i'm not sure and don't want to bend the frame or damage anything. The owners manuel only says to use the pinch weld for lifting. But nothing about jack stands.

I have a 2007 Hyundai Accent and I hit a curb while turning in the snow somewhere between 15 and 20mph and now the steering wheel does not always line up with the direction of the wheels. Also does anyone have any idea how much this might cost to repair?

hi,
I used to have a 1995 Cavalier, until about 2.5 years ago when I bought this 2004 model.
That Cavalier I had before, was standard, and I was saying I'd say about 650 to ask much as 750km on a full tank of gas. (60L)
The engine is I believe the same. 2.0L 4 Cyl engine. In fact I think now its' also an "ecotec' so is that supposed to be even MORE efficient in the 2004 model.
I get about not more than 500 maybe 550km's on a full tank now.
Not sure why this is happening.
- 58000 km on it.
-Regularly get oil changes -every about 5000 km from GM dealer
-have good tires, all season - original tires I think they should be good until about 75,000 km, still lots of tread. check the air pressure regularly.
-I don't idle my car for long times
- i don't rev my engine too much and 'take it easy' driving, keep rpm around 2 to 3000rpm.
-regularly put in fuel injector cleaner about every 10000 km
- do u think changing fuel filter would help, would i need to do this? anything else ??

After filling the oil to the full level and driving half hour, oil meter keeps a little fluctuating from full to empty point, with warning light on and beeps. The oil level seems to be good and do not drops fast. Also check the car after parking and find no oil drops or flowes onto the ground. It shows less evidence for oil leakage.I am not sure what the problem is and how to fix it. Thanks for your answers.

I got rear ended at a stoplight today, I was not at fault, weather was terrible, he just skidded into me. I think I'm fine, car is a bit scratched but no biggie. I figured everything was fine until I realized after driving for awhile my turn signals aren't working, right or left. They are not flashing when I'm driving so no one can tell if I'm turning. And the little right/left arrows inside of the car on the dash that flash and make the tick-tick-tick noise aren't working either.

This question isn't about insurance, or injuries, or how he should pay for it, or how dumb I am not to have gotten his information or called the cops (I know, I know, I'm an idiot, but I was very frazzled) that part is over and done with, there's nothing I can do about it now. So please no tsk-tsking.

All I want to know is a ballpark number on what could be wrong and how much to fix it. Is it an expensive re-wiring job, especially since I can't see the lights working inside either?

Thanks in advance.

not even warm enough. Also, the engine takes a longer time than usual to warm up even after driving for a while. If left idling the temperature barely reaches 1/4. Could it be the thermostat (stuck open or something) ? Also, does a cooler than normal running engine consume more gas ? The car is a '90 Honda civic SW. Your answer is appreciated.

My car is overheating. Before I just start replacing parts I was wondering if anyone could give me a good place to start. My car starts rough but smooths out after about 1 minute. I noticed that my floorboards were wet. I have a little heat for a second then no heat come from heater. The car is not consuming coolant. It runs for about 15 minutes then the temperature skyrockets, the fan comes on and the resevior boils over. The radiator and lower radiator hose remain cool. I replaced the thermostat. What does it sound like? A water pump, heater core, head gasket, air lock? Please let me know if you have had similar experience. Thanks!
