Re: Sun shade removal and install question

There are 4 tabs on the sunshade. I opened the sun roof all the way back and snapped in the 4 tabs of the shade to the inside track, but when I close the sunroof It does not close all the way, it seems that the shade blocks it from closing all the way. Is this the proper way to re-install the shade ...

Sun shade removal and install question

I removed the sun shade to replace the fabric but I can't seem to re-position it in place. Any one know of a fix or how to put it back to it's place.

Re: Tranny does not shift into gear!! Please help!!!

Total cost parts and labour was $3900.00 with a 3 year warranty on parts and labour. The tranny now shifts a lot smoother than before and the steering is effortless. Did I ...

Re: Second o2 sensor location?

I had the local speed shop install it. When I left the shop the ses light came on. I figured it had to be the 02 sensor after the cat. The downpipe was installed directly to the resonator. I figured the mechanic removed the sensor before deleting the cat. I just need to know where to look so I can ...

Re: Should SSEi's have vented coolant reservoir cap?

If your original cap does not quite fit well, just wrap some electrical tape on the threaded part on top of the reservoir and then screw on the cap, it should fit nice and tight.
