Toyota Matrix, Yaris hatchback - is there some kind of aftermarket cargo conceal cover available? The kind of plastic panel that would mount above the cargo compartment so that a curious eye can't see what's in there? TIA, Bubba

I have a 1978 Firedbird...350..4 bbl..auto. The starter will not turn over the engine and 'clicks'. I checked the battery cable connections, connections on the starter etc. The battery is new and still does it even when a jump from another vehicle is applied.

I tokk my Windstar to have the fogging window problem checked. Turns out the cabin air filter was very dirty and needed changing. Not something I even considered. When I was still working, 15 years, lowly Fords didn't have such "accessories". Amazing how much more air the heater produces now...

I have a Daewoo Tacuma and the central locking lights are staying on. The sidelights that flash as you turn remotely lock/unlock it. sometimes it can take 10 minutes of clicking to get the damn things off. Any ideas as to what it is?

Hey all, I'm hoping someone can assist me with a recent problem. I have a 2004 Scion xB 5-spd manual with 150k miles on it. Recently I have noticed a whine when driving. Usually the whine manifests itself when I'm traveling above 60mph. I initially thought it could be a wheel bearing or...

I have a 97 Lexus ES300 with 114K miles on it. I have a CEL with P0420 code, catalyst efficiency below threshold. I have replaced the cat twice with aftermarket ones. In both cases, the CEL came back after a couple of months with the same code. So looks like the previous ones were garbage. In...

I have a 95 Mercury Villager that just recently started making a weird noise that is higher pitched and seems like it's coming from the wheel well. It stops making the noise, however, when I break. I would almost describe the noise as sounding like chains jingling, kind of. Sorry, it's the best...

As I understand it, "Drive By Wire" means that there is a throttle position sensor which is read by an ECU or other electronic device which then changes the position(s) of throttle plate(s) in accordance without any mechanical link whatsoever between the gas pedal and the metering device. This is...

A little while back, I was browsing these news groups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam",but like most of us, but I...

OK. I'll try to keep this short. For almost 2 years now my 1994 Cherokee 4.0 automatic has had this unfixable problem involving the throttle position sensor. Basically the Jeep drive just fine and smoothly but once you drive 10-15 minutes in the city or drive the highway and come to a stop off the...

Hi a buddy has a 1999 Mustang GT 4.6L that keeps drawing on the battery and dying when left for more than a day. The draw is significant enough that when you touch the negative cable to the battery, it arcs. Current draw on a dvom is ~5 amps. Thinking the alternator was to blame by ther humm it...

Hi I have a problem. My 92 Buick Roadmaster has ABS. The front wheel on the passanger side was diagnosed with a defective speed sensor. I read on the newsgroups that it most likely needs to be cleaned and that it isn't really defective. I have tried to remove it and have succeded in...
