'92 BMW 535 problems by
Ulf
After owning my '92 BMW 535 for a couple of weeks now I've noticed a few
issues. First, there's a vibration in the steering wheel under soft to
moderate braking between 40 - 70 mph. It isn't noticeable if I brake
hard or outside the speed interval mentioned. The car also has a very

choosing a company for windshield replacement by
[email protected]
My son's 97 Subaru Impreza has a cracked windshield. Too big to
repair, it needs to be replaced.
A little googling showed me several companies that will come out and do
the replacement, with quotes in the $250 range. (The companies are
windshield.net, Autoglass National, and 89 Glass. I'm sure...

How I solved my (slightly) high NOx emissions problem by
[email protected]
I have a 1996 Mazda Protiege that was BARELY failing my state's
emissions test (reading 3.12; my state allows 3.00 max). The car had
been recently tuned up, so I knew the usual culprits (EGR valve,
timing, etc) were not the problem.
I figured I could pass the test if I could get my engine temp up...

Air filters and milage by
Don Stauffer
I keep hearing how a dirty filter greatly reduces milage.
I can see how this is true for really old engines, before emission
controls and EFI. In those days, carbs used venturi pressure and vented
float chamber to atmosphere. Then a reduction in the air pressure at
carb intake caused by pressure...

why doesn't low oil *level* activate the idiot light? by
Ted Johnson
I think we all agree that:
o low oil *pressure* is bad, and...
o low oil *level* is bad
----
So... why is it that (on most cars), the idiot light doesn't measure
both of these?
Ie, why is it that case that (in most cars) the "Oil!" idiot light
only light up when oil *pressure* is low?

Re-blown 94 4runner head gasket warranties? by
[email protected]
Apparently the head gastket fix on the recalled 4runners isn't all one
might hope as the used '93 I just bought blew almost immediately. The
local toyota dealer informed me that it was replaced once under the
recall and they will not cover it again. It has 124K miles on it so I
am guessing this...

Window glass not flush with moulding - 1989 Ford Probe by

For those familiar with '89-'92 Ford Probes, the power window
regulators will fail (not if, but when) due to plastic pullies. These
are frameless door windows (like Camaros). I finally went ahead and
replaced both (failed) door regulator/motor assemblies with new
aftermarket parts. After installing...
