    radiator surge tank float doesn't float

    Thats a bypass but not recommended. As these cars only get damage to the engineering nes when they are run hot, watching cooling level is very important. Tgey also can develop acsmall keak in the return hose that is hardly seen and over time will loose enough coolant to run hot.

    Help! Fuse location for alarm system

    I dont think its the alarm. Its been stated the car constantly looks for the fob plus several other features than run off and on that drain the battery. A tender is what most people do to fix the issue.

    Help! Power steering

    The pumps do fail i have new oem ones for sale . But even when they fail the car should not be that hard to steer. The rack and pinion has a power assist built in.

    Trunk Relay

    If they are talking about the soft touch its crazy to try and clean it when i have new ones factory for 50$. to remove all the trim and panels to clean is a waste of money. I highly doubt tgat would cause your problem. Yes you can clean them but you remove the coating on the contacts so they...

    Trunk Relay

    Well id like to know what trunk switch the dealer supposedly cleaned. The trunk latch is riveted together and you really cannot take it apart. There is no way to see corrision inside without grinding it apart with no way to put it back together. They do fail but they also can be reset with a...
