It only takes a few months for my headlights to start yellowing again after a polish. 500grit 1000grit 2000 then 2 buffing agents. but i don't know what to use to prevent the oxidizing. any tips?

She somehow managed to break the fuel door release button. She did not think to gather any of the pieces other than the plastic top. So I'm missing the spring, and whatever else was in there. At this point, I do not have an easy way to open the fuel door without going into the trunk. Any...

Anti-Theft light on my dash dings and flashes if i open the door. Car is off In Park Getting in, or leaving. Fuse or battery issue? Can i reset it?

Coolant system 'was' flushed and bled about 3 months ago. Everything was fine. -The car heats up fast,5 min of suburb driving --Low coolant Message ---Engine Temp Message ----Coolant boils out of the resivoir -----Temp needle bounces back down, and seems to run fine. -------At stop, refill...

Sometimes at stops, the car is lunging forward at idle. I just had it in for an oil change. Dunno if that is related at all. It's a little scary, but i can control it. any ideas? I know this may be a little vague.

I am aware that i dont want the 4.6 SOHC that most stores will try to give you. I am looking for examples just to be sure. advance auto parts? oreily? autozone? I am not even sure i need a tstat replaced, but it's a $10 part, so no big deal. Last mechanic that tried to use their flushing...

I went and got gas, get back in my car, and the engine just clicks and doesnt turn over. I had a similar issue a while back. I was just sitting in the car with the engine off, then the console shot up error messages for "Traction System" and" CHarger System". The last time the mechanic said...

Anything other than factory fit into the center caps for the chrome directionals. If i could find some center caps for under $30 a pop that would be sweet. I would even go with factory ones if i had a reliable source part(F5LC-1A096-BC)i think. I'm not going to bother with Max at 5-star...

I've been stalking a few blackwoods for a couple months. Prices are starting to hit under 20k pretty steadily now. This was kind of a hit-or-miss lincoln for some of you, but i find it quite appealing. It's spacious like a towncar, but it's huge like America's Ego. Most have low mileage too...

Driver seat: the whole thing. tan Drivers seat, bottom only? Heated seat element: back , bottom, and both? just a general idea would be most helpful.

Timing Chain Tensioner. They told me $4500 to get my car running again... They said 21 hours to fix this. Everything in my car works fine, it just wont start. Do i have any options? I am very upset.

Ok, this story has taken a rather interesting turn. This has all been done at MIDAS. -Dropped the car off Friday night(10/14) to have them grind the new brake rotors back down..for the second time. -They called 10am saturday(10/15) to tell me it was done. I told them i was out of town for the...

So my mark is when i drive in luxury and style, but i am in the market for a late year 4th gen firebird. I haven't really found a community like this one for the firebird market. anyone know a similar place that i can shoot some questions etc? Most places are just mod sites. Buyers guide or...

The Mark is my daily driver. I do about 15 miles of rush hour a day. My rotors are warped about every 3 months... Midas keeps telling me to go easy on the brakes. Easy on the brakes? this car is heavy, and it needs to stop....

My HVAC is blowing all sorts of junk around these days. i am curious if there is some sort of filter or filtering system i could check/modify. I get the lil foam fuzzy's flying out, as well as a fair amount of dust. So something must have degraded in there.
