Depending on the year and make of the car you might be able to get the dealership to order a new key based on the vin number. Be prepared to show proof that you own it hop this helps good luck.

the tensioner for the timing belt is a hydraulic tensioner and automatically keeps the belt under tension. Because it is hydraulic it can leak oil which gets on the belt and will destroy it.. For this engine to get maximum life out of the belt, it is recommended to replace the crank shaft seal and the cam shaft seals and the hydraulic tensioner. All idler pulleys should be replaced as well as the bearings do a lot of work . If you want a good long lasting job I suggest an accredited shop that does a lot of your make of engine and spend the money now as it will save in the long run.. The noise is more than likely a idler bearing on the way out.

If it is overheating within minutes of starting, your probably having a head gasket problem. continuing to drive it overheating will ony cause more damage to the cylinder head or block. A cracked head is not cheap.

sounds like the oil level might be low my truck does the same thing when its low on oil if oil is level is fine then the pump might be going bad

You need to see the dealer for information on the radio code. Also sue O'Reilly auto for improper installation of the new battery.

You need to see the dealer to sort this out. But ask why they didn't keep the system powered up wnen the battery is replaced, that avoids this problem as no memory or function is lost. Shame on whimever did this battery r and r

The licence plate doesn't have a fuse, it comes on when you put your lights on, if you have your park lights on and the plate light isn't working then generally it's just a bulb, see what you can find, cheers good luck

It could be possible,If you are getting alot of fluid it is the power steering pump leaking,Is the fluid level low.

Sounds like your heater core has sprung a leak and needs replacing. Verify if the wetness is plain water or coolant. Engine coolant circulates through the heater core (just like a small radiator) and gives up a small amount of heat, which the blower fan picks up and blows out the heater vents. Replacing the heater core is quite easy, or a total nightmare, depending on manufacturer's design-when you have to remove the dash from the vehicle to get at the core-that's what I mean by a nightmare. Check a repair manual for your car to see how difficult the procedure is. Good luck.

Can you list the code here so I can see then.thanks

Ok, how do you know they do not work ?
