Rack and Pionion may be binding up. Double check power steering fluid.

P1529 is a fault code???________________careucar.com

The max charge voltage is usually around 14.5 volts, so 14.4 is not high.Its possible the battery has a dead cell and that is causing the acid problem.You might want to check with the dealer on what the max voltage is for your car.

look on driver side rear fender for canister if its not located under the hood.

I'd take it to a few shops that do front end alignments and get a couple of estimates. Usually both strut springs do not fail at the same time. The struts are just shocks so thats out. Not much can drop both sides at the same time.Have you actually measured the sides to see if the front is lower ? Or has a panel or object dropped and is now very close to the ground while the car is still more or less at normal height ??

1st start by listening for vacuum leaks in hoses and your air intake manifold. 2nd run some Lucas Oil gas treament through your gas system to clean fuel injectors, revive seals, and etc. If that does not work, try replacing your fuel filter(The fuel filter is located under the rear seat in a compartment above the fuel tank. Also, a filter sock at the base of the fuel pump located in the fuel tank) as well as your fuel pump which is right there with your fuel filter. Hope this gets you at least started on the right path.

Check Bulletins on that issue--- both from a dealer &the aftermarket ---to see of there is an issue with gasketsTry a repair shops data base for thatCall Jasper Engines & Transmissions if in the US

Hi there:This code can also be related to the MAF or mass air flow sensor. Lets test it before we try anything new.Testing and Inspection:MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR (MAF SENSOR)This hot film type air flow sensor is composed of a hot film sensor, housing, and a metering duct (hybrid, sensor element). The mass airflow rate is measured by detection of heat transfer from a hot film probe. A change in the mass air flow rate will cause a change in the amount of heat being transferred from the hot film probe surface to the air flow. This results in a change in temperature of the hot film probe and a change of resistance.Circuit Diagram:Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

There should be a top hose and a bottom hose. Each will have two spring clamps -- one on each end. It should be pretty obvious where each hose connects, as it should only go on one way. I'm not trying to over-simplify it.With the radiator in place, you should be able to see, from under the car, the bottom hose connecting to the block, and likewise on top.

You will need to raise the car up off the ground and support it with jack stands and crawl under the passenger side to see the AC condensation drain tube at the bottom of the engine bulkhead/firewall. If it is clogged with bits of leaves you will need to remove the AC blower motor and clean out the enclosure that motor sits in and clean the drain while the motor and squirrel cage blower wheel are removed..

Its whats called an error code in my opinion.... Here's what to do...locate your ECM ,pull the plug spray with QD cleaner ....and reinsert..... 99 to 1 your light will go away....oh u may have disconnect the battery after wards to actually turn it off but that should work...hope that helps

The light might not be working due to a simple short on fuse or could be something else. Bring it to a shop if you can't fix it.if you need a VAG diagnostic tool you can click here VAG diagnostic toolshope it can help you and good luck

heater core may be busted or coolant is leaking under hood

Duplicate question - - the code is for a problem with the throttle position sensor.

So go to a dealers parts counterthey will show you a picture of it on a computer screen

Sounds like there's either a short on the fan motor or on the wiring. Try and disconect the fan and see if the fuse blows then when you switch it on (of course being disconnected it wont spin). If it blows again it could be 'wire chafing' See... http://www.croberts.com/chaf.htmIf it doesnt blow then it probobly is the fan motor itself shorting out.Just be aware just moving the wiring might move the shorting wire away from it's short as it were and the problem may seem miracilsly fixed but that maybe temporary untill the bare wire touches something again.SAFETY NOTEUSING THE FUSE OF THE CORRECT RATING SEEMS SILLY TO SOME PEOPLE... BUT IT IS THE WEAK POINT THAT MELTS *BEFORE* FIRE STARTS.REST ASSURED THE FUSE IS DOING IT'S JOB HERE, DON'T BYPASS IT!

PO442- Main Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)Failed Exhaust ConverterShould have gone at least 12 to 14 yearsI suspect the car wasn't having a happy life formany yearsYou need to change spark plugs every 3 years, O2 Sensors at 100,000 and get a more poractivepreventative maintenance scheduleThe main reason for converter failure is a rich fuelmixture & spark plugs,oxygen sensors,air filters,vacuum leaks & more drive fuel trim rich

you need to have a talk with mechanic and again get codes obd.what is loud ??????rapping noises??? exhaust ????.

You may have a defective starter solenoid, this is the common symptom, a click and no engine turn over. Have a shop diagnose this before any parts are replaced but i feel sure the starter solenoid is the problem here. The solenoid is mounted to the top of the starter motor which is bolted into the transmission's bell housing.

starter brashes worn out , or one channel on shaft blown up , 3th solenoid not function properly main cable loose .in crease the earth negative battery to the engine body.and try.
