    VVT solenoid actuator oil leak UPDATE

    How wide? The old window crank clips go back to the 60's. many of the vacuum lines and trans lines have a clip but different. Any chance it could have been on your magnet when you got it out of your tool box? Reminds me of my youth when we would put a very special and important looking bolt in...

    How to open trunk without key and dead BCM?

    Getting a key made is best but as stated, you can take the center console between the seats out and reach back into the trunk and if you make a firm bend in a rod you can hook onto the green emergency release latch handle. It glows in the dark if you shine a light back there

    P1101 P0101 codes

    I think he talking about the rubber boots around the mass air flow going to the trottle body. Just make sure they are sliped on correctly and the rubber is not folded or bunched up.

    Rear bumper key hole covers

    I agree that anything looks better than nothing but abs continues to off gas and one day the primer and paint will just release. A much better product is around the corner.

    Rear bumper key hole covers

    Dont waste time or money on the key hole covers sold on ebay Good idea poorly executed. Made from brittle abs that even if they fit and worked dont take paint well. They are cheap but not flexable and the tabs snap right off. Another member is working on making some that will work and will come...

    Help! Fault Codes P0171 and P0174.....

    Thats crazy. The manifold bolts are first and the easiest. Look to see that your hoses are all in place and tight on the mass air flow. Ill check the 06 part number for you. Did you just install the volant?. I Did you oil the filters ? Thats usually the cause if too much oil is put on some of...
