I just noticed my dome light blinking patterns when car is not running. Is this a warning of some sort? I know it hasn't done this before. Could someone...

I don't understand the desire to waste money on synthetic oil. You can change oil and filter twice or 3 times for what one synthetic change costs. If you...

I agree with your points. However, as a part-time aircraft mechanic(A&P), I have seen the damage synthetics (Mobil 1) did to aircraft engines, also saw damage...

Hello, I have a problem with my 12V VR6 Golf in that it refuses to start, sometimes. I have changed the plugs but this made no difference. When I go to start...

I would agree except that he says it turns over. Fouled plugs? I'm voting coilpack on this one. I guess it could be a flakey ignition switch that sends power...

Stand in front of the car, looking between the motor and the radiator. Count from the left, 3 intake runners. Look down, there is the air pump. Check the...
I would start at the vacuum lines connected to the fuel pressure regulator (on the right next to the intake manifold runners). There should be about a single...

Hi Guys, Thanks for your thoughts on this, It is a really odd problem. Yesterday it buggered me about when I needed it to work, but come the evening and social...
I don't have my ETKA disc loaded at work, so I cannot provide a part number. You can determine if your pump works by listening for the high pitched whine when...
Okay, I finally got my secondary air flow problem fixed and cleared the engine codes using an AutoXray OBD II scanner. I took my car to inspection and failed,...

No, nothing is wired to the dome light except the switches in the doors and of course, the one on the light itself. When the switches in the doors 'short',...
