Stuck doors or broken connection

it says on all tranny sticks,"check fluid while running in park"

If you have removed the retainer nuts, it will come off. The wiper arms slide on to a splined shaft (so they won't slip when operated) and the often get corroded on (you may see a "whitish" powder around the spline. There are several things to try. 1.) Just grab and wiggle it as you gently pull. 2.) pry it up gently with a tool like a screw driver while wiggling and pulling (be careful - the glass windshield is not far away.) 3.) put a few drops of penetrating oil on the exposed spline where you removed the retaining nut and let it soak for 30 minutes, then start over with number one. When it does break free, be ready as it may pop off rather emphatically. You can avoid this next time if you put a very fine coat of anti-sieze grease on the splines before you re-assemble it. They do come off - really :-)

EGR valve , either the valve is malfunctioning, or the electronic control is...

I had a Dodge Dynasty that did the same. The car would start after nine times of trying. My problem was a defective computer You can try and remove the connector and clean both sides to make a better connection. If not a computer may be in your future..

Well-- no mechanic or us here, will guess at any vehicle issues It simply is not possible Since they just worked on it ,take it back Could be you had two issues So do not assume they caused the second one, at least give them a chance to find the problem That is why the auto industry has a bad name & is disliked for 50 years,because you have to be there & build a relationship & understand their issues in trying to help your car (not you) your car

Always a possibility

I believe this model heater core is located at the lower passenger side of the dash and can be removed without removing the dash. Check your firewall side under the hood for the heater hoses and it will give you an idea of where its located on the inside of the car. Hope this helps Chris

Just one plug? Check the plug and the wire to it. Replace and see if that works. Have the wires or plugs been replaced on the other cylinders in the past 12,000 miles? Go ahead...do it now before it gets to minus zero outside. Good luck.

Sounds like the tach is either bad and should be replaced or there is a short or loose connection to or from it. Check the wires in and out of it. If it's in the dash, though, it won't be easy to get to. Good luck.

The heater resistor pack has gone it is housed near the matrix.

the filter is located on top of the fuel tank. you will have to lower the tank to replace it. if your changing it due to a running symptom then you should check the fuel pressure and volume with a gage. as this can cause a running problem.

thank you I will ask some to check it

Hi Joyce , i would have the OBD codes read by a mechanic , this will tell you exactly what sensor/switch is at fault , this will save you time and money as there are a few things that could cause the problem you're experiencing , keep me posted if you wish
