information possible based on your specific vehicle. Please know this is not an auto response message system. We are
full time Automotive technicians, who field cases as they come in. If you do not receive a prompt response, this means we have stepped away momentarily
or are working on your case as well as many others. Please be patient as we work through this. May I ask your name?

Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
The car's ability to crank over does not depend on whether or not it has gas in the tank. Since the dash lights light up, this suggests you have power so we can rule out the fact that there is...
This can be caused by a few things such as low transmission fluid (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/transmission-fluid-service), a transmission vacuum leak or a faulty transmission control solenoid. Modern automatic transmissions use pressurized hydraulic fluid to change gears. Every time a gear change is...
Its doubtful that the crankshaft sensor is to blame. The crankshaft sensor is used by the powertrain control module (PCM) to determine injector pulse and ignition timing, not fuel pump operation. The camshaft sensor is used to computer fuel injector...
The OEM (dealer) parts are sold separately, that is you have to buy the ball joint and the control arm individually, if you desire both parts. In the aftermarket, you can buy a complete assembly, that is a control arm...
Hi there. It would probably benefit you to obtain a second opinion. Although the power steering system can take time to prime and replace a hose, that estimate of labor is rather high; but expected by a dealership. If you'd...
With the information that you have provided, I would surmise that you are describing the signs of an engine misfire (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/engine-is-misfiring-inspection). Pulling the diagnostic codes with a code reader will probably show codes that relate to a misfire, and could...
You should use OEM (dealer supplied) parts in this vehicle. There is no substitute for the OEM parts in terms of fit, function and quality. Sachs shocks may be made in Germany. If they are made in Germany, they might...
Hi there. A rough idling engine can be caused by a number of issues, some of them are serious while others tend to be minor, but the symptoms remain pretty much the same. The car will feel rough and bouncy...
The coil in your application has a power wire (red), a ground wire (black), and a PCM pulse command wire (5 volt pulse; Blue w/Red stripe for cylinder No. 3) that operates the coil’s internal switching transistor. Using an oscilloscope,...
