could be clutter items on rail burnt up motor (coins, paper, etc) same thing on my 2001 tahoe

Recharge the battery. While it only requires a bit of power for the headlights, it takes a fully-charged battery to turn the starter-motor, to start the engine.

On my old Cavalier it was under the dash on the passenger side. It took me about 30 minutes to make sure what I was doing, but once I found it, it was fairly easy to do. From the info I just found it would seem its under the hood on the passenger side, which is a LOT easier to access: Sparky Answers

sounds like the needle bearings inside the disconnect are bad. most generally the outer bearing that rides on the cv axle. bearing detonates and the axle drops just enough to misalign the engagment. bearings are replaceable.

Most likely on the output shaft housing. It is most likely electronic and is usually the very furthest back electronic connector on the transmission. Since you did not provide the engine and whither it is 2WD or 4WD, I can't provide more exacting information.

here are 8 reasons a vehicle over heats. coolant level is low, you have a leak in cooling system, the cooling system may have trapped air inside, the radiator cooling fan is not working, radiator core has become plugged, bad thermostat, or bad water pump, or Your radiator cap needs to be replaced. Good-Day! this is mostly all problems with over heating. if it is a bad head gasket, you will see white smoke from tail pipe. thats because coolant is entering cylinders. as for the radiator cap have a parts store pressure test the cooling system, if they do it.

Sounds like the shift cable needs adjusting on the transmission. It will be on the driver's side, heavy black cable sheath with an adjuster. Adjust it a few turn in one direction then check to see if it gets better or worse. Fine tune as needed

Either under hood or in side of drivers door

check fuses.

this may seem wild , but it sounds as if the instrument panel is not properly seated in the connector . pulling the panel is not difficult 4 screws in the dash panel and 4 screws in the instrument panel and pull straight out . clean the contacts completely with electrical contact cleaner and push the panel back in place . put all screws in tightly

Problem with the actuater.either needed to be adjusted or replaced.Actuater is visible and located on the gearbox it self .

take it to a shop so they pull any trouble codes

Not enough information... what kind of car and where on the dash is the switch located?

Could be bearings, tires or any kind of front end problem. That's something that has to be seen visually and cannot be evaluated online. Visit a reputable tire or alignment shop.

Try switching speakers, check short when wires flex at door hinge, change balance, etc.

your fan control switch needs to be replaced-Denny

It could be a fuse (check to see if the right side mirror adjusts.) I have found that there are some problems with the wire loom between the door and the door jam; if you have any problems with your automatic windows or door locking switches then I would check the connections in the loom. The problem (I feel) is that these wires are too short and begin to crack with heat and age of the vehicle. Unless you can do this work yourself, and after you check the fuse, live with the problem or adjust it by hand. The cost of someone fixing it (if it is the loom) is costly for a 2001 vehicle.

Is the head warped or can you actually see the crack.If so it would be cheaper to replace the head.If you weld the head, then it will have to be milled to make sure you have a flat surface.Find a salvage yard with a engine with a bad block.Make sure valve are the same size

You might want to check your car battery as this might be the reason. Otherwise maybe you might have to replace your altenator.

The air suspension system should stay up for several days without going completely down, which probably means that you have a small leak which is quite common even on relatively new air bags or struts.

A general rule of thumb is that if the compressor isn't kicking on several times during a drive then they are good to go. The air bags are a pain to change, so most people don't change them until they are really bad.
