For the past few weeks I've been hearing a new noise from my engine, and
I'd pretty much...

D-C might become just D and C.

Yep, but as you may have noticed GM is offering a 100k mile warranty. I

No, it's not using Google as your home page that's the problem. Google
has some software called "Google Desktop". It indexes your hard drive
