1998 and forward Buick caliper slides by
Does anyone know exactly what Allen wrench fits the slide pins for
1998 and up Buicks?
I thought it was a 45 Torx, but, alas, not so.
It is a larger Allen wrench.
I went to change the front struts and found the brakes condom thin.
At least, I don't have to look for something to do tomorrow.

Hyundai Azera by
Have read a couple of blurbs that this new Hyundai is the 'budget Lexus', a
really
quality car at a bargain price.
Have any of you taken a close look, or perhaps even purchased one?
J.D. Power and others have claimed that Hyundai has vaulted past some of the
competition in terms of quality. It...

Turbocharger for Toyota sedans by
There seem to be aftermarket turbocharger application kits for a number
of cars including VW, Honda, etc.
But I haven't seen any for the Camry series. Maybe I have just not looked
far enough.
I would seem to me that a low boost turbo application could improve the
power available from one of...

Those days when nothing works by
Was planning to go out of town the other day, and my battery in the 97
Dodge Custom Van was dead
as hell. In my haste, I checked all the interior lights, etc, and put the

The next morning, the charge indicator on the charger indicated low, but I

You were a big help on that passkey information recently. The strobe from
the passkey

Opinions---Jaguar by
A family member just bought a 1999 Jaguar. It is the Vanden Plaz signature,
but I am not sure
what else it is. Says it is a straight 6 cylinder. Has 40,000 miles and
paid less than $15,000.
The question is, what is he likely to encounter with this car?
Old Jaguars were trouble, with frequent...

Air conditioning vs DRL by
At one point, it was suggested that disabling DRL's was a fuel saving issue,
and calculations
show that for a large numbers of cars and miles driven, there is a finite
savings in fuel. This
might be statistically and regulatorially significant when combined with
other techniques which
yield small...

one that had problems with cracked blocks, premature wear, etc.

PING::Ian by
Ian,
Can you give us some clues as to exactly how the TDM (theft deterrent
module) works on GM cars?
Several of us want to remove these rather troublesome devices on our project
cars.
In particular:
(1) is the passkey recognition system the only input which trips the TDM, or
are there others? (The...

Blower resistor on Dodge by
I just had the second blower voltage divider fail on my van, and thought I
would post about
this.
This divider provides the multiple fan speeds, and is installed in the air
conditioner intake
plenum.
When I first bought the car, the connector had burned through, and the
resistor was damaged.
