Check the coolant. If at the right level try replaceing the thermostat.

Hope This Helps.

Yes that is possible, excessive engine movement from bad/broken mounts put added pulling load on the wiring harness to the engine, it can pull connectors loose and break wiring inside of its insulator, bend a piece of wire over and over and it breaks, the same applies here.

Change spark plug at cylinder 4

For the V-8...18436572...Hope this helps.

PROBLEM COULD BE IN THE ELECTRONIC LEVEL CONTROL HEIGHT SENSOR IN THE CONTROL ARM. LET GARAGE CHECK IT OUT.IT TAKES DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT TO CHECK OUT ELECTRONIC CONTROL SUSPENSION SYSTEM.

Take a passenger along and have the person pinpoint the noise and go from there

did you blow your back air shocks there should be a switch in trunk to reset air shocks when you lift your car make sure you turn this switch off if you dont you could blow your air shocks there not cheap to fix unsure the exact price

Hi,

I suspect that the multifunction switch is shorted. That contains the turn signal switch. Sometimes, manipulating the turn signal lever will replicate the problem, helping to narrow it down.
The brake light circuit runs through the turn signal switch, so yes, that all makes perfect sense. It's not an awful job, a good mechanic will have that replaced in under an hour.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

You have to get involved, and get a close look at
where the leak is

If it was a head gasket,it is doubtful you would
still be driving it, without some really serious
drivability issues

Maybe a water pump or hose

have codes scanned for light missfire look at plug is it fouled ,smells like gas or black if so replace plug and coil pack

occasional sticking of the thermostat may be the culprit if it has not been replaced or may be seizing up

Hi, if the window works using one switch but not another, the problem is usually in the switch that isn't working. Now, if the switches were taken out during the previous repair, the problem COULD be a loose connector; however, it should not have been necessary to access the switches for the repair you described. These switches are usually available in the aftermarket and can be purchased online. The switches are fairly easy to replace. If you will provide your model and year, I can probably give you specific instructions on how to check or replace the switch. Please specify which switch is NOT working, is it the driver's switch or the passenger's switch?
Thanks for using FixYa!

why change the starter motor when its a flat battery ,put battery on charge and see what happens

at the bottom of the radiator the will be a valve there either white or black find it then open it but dont take it out all the way then remover the radiator cap and with your garden hose slowly run water though there.

Hello: You can go to www.helminc.com and get a owners manual, service manual.

Hello, It sounds like you have a bad sensor. If you put air in tire and have not driven the car the drive it first (about three miles) The sensors are part of the valve steam. To activate them you have to drive the car.

Hello, The spark plugs are located on top of the engine under the ignition module assembly. On the driver side of the engine there is a electrical connector, disconnect it. there are 8 10MM bolts, remove them, Gently pull straight up, wiggle it while pulling up, the 4 front plugs are under neath. The boots may stay on the plugs pull them off and put them back on the module assembly. That was for the front plugs. The procedure for the rear is the same except you will need to remove the bracket and valve for the secondary AIR system to allow room to remove the ignition module assembly. Spark plug gap is .050 of an inch. Spark plug torque is 15 lbs, ft. Hope this helps

Welcome to FixYa.com Though we here at FixYa can help lead you to the right direction and most of the time walk you through the repair, but transmission problems are the hardest. I can tell you what has happen to these cars when overdrive goes out. It would be easier to have the transmission checked out by a professional to ensure the best quality repair. How many miles on car ? Have you regularly changed the filter and fluid at the specified times ruffly 45,000.00 miles ? Does reverse bang hard into gear ? Regards, Lee Davidian

Do this right and find a running engine in the same car with the same 8th digit of your serial number. Do not trust one removed from any car to purchase. To many hackers out there that change numbers for a sale
This way you get an engine you heard that ran and it will be the right one the first time

look under your back seat
