Re: What did you do to your car today?

Spent numerous hours on an oil change on my wife's Saturn Vue. Last place she took over torqued the drain bolt and filter. Had to use spline connectors and get new bolt.

Battery Replacement - Positive Terminal Won't Tighten

Hello, I'm new to this forum and am hoping I can find some help on a recent issue with replacing my 2003 SLE's battery.

The car has been sitting for some time (had A/C issue and broken mirror) as I haven't had time to properly address issues with the car and had been driving another vehicle. Now ...
