I have had one fail. What gets me with discussions like this is the sillyness of it. You have all the tools out. The car is up in the air, you have the part.You have one off and have gotten the hang of it. Do it. Mine cost me 13.00 each on ebay. It is silly not to spend the extra time just to replace the other side and be done with it. We aren't talking a huge amount of cash here. Penny wise and dollar foolish makes you drive into a tree.

When I had mine made (I supplied the blanks) the dealer asked me for a reggy or title. i started pulling out the title and he said that was good enough. He didnt look at it but since I had it with me he figured it was right. Another nice thing about the dealer.... you know instantly if it works or not.

Computer coded keys are the dealership. There are online places that do it but i don't trust them. Online dealer swill usually tell you to go to a local dealer as it is faster.

Blu got a top hat

Problem solved.

I know there are a few justy people here... I am going to have to replace the Justys belt soon. the FSM specifies a specific tool. I can find it on the net for 80-100 bucks. That is alot of money for a one-time tool. What are peoples cheats for this, or can I borrow one?

It will go away no mattter which sent you used. i say they all are locker room scent

Never underestimate the ability of a human being to get around a saftey device. nipper

Sometimes it puts up a fight. I broke one by doing it on the car.

This was actually my first thought. All those fuel pump problems were not all fuel pumps. Vapor lock doesn't exist on fuel injected cars as the fuel is constantly circulating keeping it relativly cool. There is also the fuel pressure regulator as a possibility nipper

In all i do not remember if they are bolts or screws

I did this. Lay down and look up at the fog light .There are two screws that hold the bracket on the car. They will put up a fight. The other way is the three screws that fasten the light to the bracket, but they can be a challange to put back on with the light fastened to the car.

Why does everyone blame the poor innocint fuel pump. Next time it happens remove the gas cap and see if the car starts. If not you need to put a fuel pressure gauge on the system. nipper

I had this, it is the oil pump seal. Very bad fix it as it can pump all the oil out very fast. You dont say the miles but do everything while you are in there. nipper

Lysol in the air intake under the hood. I have this smell every spring and it kills it. nipper

If you are doing it at home, i suggest doing both sides as they are equally worn. When mine were done we used a big hammer and brute force.

Inner tierods are almost impossible to see wear on, and your tests are all wrong anyway You need to have someone turn the steering wheel while watching the tie rods. Balljoint jack up the car and use a leverage arm. Put it so that it pots upper force on the tire and watch the ball joints for play. You are due for struts. As struts age you get used to them so they feel fine. Mine did too untill i took a highspeed gentleish curve on a highway. In the right the car felt fine. In the left the car was scary. The car felt fine at low speeds (this was high speed, not er um 55). Sounds travel. The paly is normal depending upon how much there is. Inner CV;s make vibrations, outers make noise. What happens when you go from drive to reverse or visa versa.

He said he was doing as per the FSM Evacuating & Charging" 3) The charging procedure described in this section begins by charging liquid refrigerant into the high pressure side of the system with the engine OFF. The procedure is completed by charging refrigerant VAPOR into the low pressure side of the system with the engine running.

You are using a silly 1 lb can from the store. The dealer useses a can that is the size and stronger then a propane tank. No dealer uses 1 b cans. You want to blow your hand off go right ahead. If they do use a 1lb can it is always on the low side. Every other instructions you will find on the net will tellyou IT IS DANGEROUS. Every site, INCLUDING (usually) the can will tell you not to connect to the high side. Just because the manual syas X it is NOT safe to assume the dealer is using the same equipment. They use a very expensive recycling machine that evacacutes refregeriant, cleans it, filters it then pressurizes it in a propane size tank. I have an AC license. You want to blow up the can go right ahead, you have been warned.

WTF Are you sure you read that right? You never ever never ever add anything to the system on the high side. This is very dangerous. You can blow up the can or worse. Coolant is always added to the low side. http://www.aa1car.com/library/ac_recharging.htm

yes

The parts to replace the entire assembly are under 30.oo so just easier to get the new parts

Not random. The aerodynamics on the rear of the captures all the road salt and it sits there.

Seafoam. If you like your neighbors go somewhere unpopulated to do it. If you hate them point your tailpipe at them.

I was a litttle surprised as to the size of the hole I had to grind out to get to bare metal. I used a dremel tool and used duplicolor rust conversion spray. My body filler work aint pretty, but the sticker helps hide a lot of sins.
