The heated driver's seat in my '05 has quit working. When I push the button, the light on the dash shows that the heat is on but nothing happens. Someone posted in the Explorer Forum saying they had this problem and the dealer told them it would cost around $1000 to fix. If true, it sounds like...

2000 EG Oil Pressure sending unit - Stuck? by Bill
The oil pressure gauge (I know it really is an idiot light with a needle), appears to be stuck at the bottom until the engine warms a bit, then it "pops" to the proper position. Does this behavior indicate a bad sending unit?

AWD front end crunching noise by bill
1996 AWD V-8 with 150,000 miles. Makes a clicking/crunching noise; can hear it especially well when coming to a stop and there's no engine noise. I'm thinking U-joints? Never replaced anything on the front end except shocks and brakes. Is this a big job? What's it going to cost me? Thanks, Bill
