I changed my oil 2 days ago and had my catera run hot on me later that night. When I looked under the hood I saw that I was low on coolant, I added the missing...
what you have is unfortunately common in Cateras, its a leaking oil cooler. since the oil is in higher pressure you notice it more in the coolant but...
my 2000 had a bad compressor too, it was making horrible noises and not cooling properly. I searched around and ended up having my loyal mechanic do the job,...
Thanks, I was really hoping it was the oil cooler and not a head gasket.I have a 98 with 57k miles on it. I'm out of warranty and there is no way I'm going to...

Hi guys, I bypassed the oil cooler by cutting the lines and then joining the lines with hose to seal any leakage. I then had a high pressure hose with the...
I noticed in the book it says the outside lights are the brights and the inside lights are the low beams. Well on mine its the other way around!! When I have...
I believe all low-beams are on the outside with high-beams inside and have been since the dual headlamp concept originated. Industry standard. My 2001 cat...
