what have u done yet? did u check your fuses

yahoo group for villager quest owners has files on this and part numbers. front ones break.

Could be a vac leak, or a dirty throttle body, or a faulty idle air control valve. The computer controls idle speed by regulating the amount of air into the intake. Could also be something pulling on the throttle cable such as the cruise control.

P0325 - Knock Sensor Circuit MalfunctionPossible causes- Faulty knock sensor- Knock sensor circuit short to ground- Knock sensor circuit short to power- Knock sensor circuit open- Faulty Engine Control Module (very unlikely). P0139 - O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response Bank 1 Sensor 2Possible causes- Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 harness is open or shorted - Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 circuit poor electrical connection - Faulty Rear Heated Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 - Inappropriate fuel pressure - Faulty fuel injectors - Intake air leaks may be faulty - Exhaust gas leaks

HelloThe Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.

Did they replace the spring hardware too ?

get the injector pump checked or take an injector out to see if there is any fuel getting to it if not new pump

Orings for the hoses, or to rebuild the compressor ?

Is the cooling system full ?Is the cooling fan coming on when the engine reaches 230 degrees ?How soon after you start the engine does it overheat, and does it boil over in the overflow tank ?

If you have no reverse then you have a failed transmission and it will need to be removed and rebuilt or replaced with a factory reman unit.

You say that the hoses have a lot of pressure and are extremely hot. That's telling me that the coolant is not circulating. I would recommend changing the thermostat first, since it's the cheapest and more likely to get worn out first. A thermostat opens once the coolant gets to a certain temperature and builds up pressure, allowing coolant to flow. Either that or the pump. Just to verify, is the fan working? Hope that helps.

I have addressed this already

It is an automatic system, so if it is not working you have a defective part. The system control module needs to be scanned to see what the problem might be and then diagnosed based on what shows on the scan.

I think you should take it to a repair shop, to have itproperly diagnosed & repairedYour asking what someone thinks--how would we do that?Your then asking, if you should try something else,AFTERyou were told what the code was,(a misfire on cylinder #5)Now you see why I don't think it is within your ability to resolve?

Hi. Welcome to Fixya! Try to reset the computer box of your car. Unplug the positive terminal of your battery. Let it sit for 10 mins then plug it back in. Try to test again the issue. Let me know if you need more help.Cheers! If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/elixirjose_00375ea24bd8141b

Check to see that the fan works take the connector off and get a set of wires with alligator clips connect each lead or wire up to one of the two conectors on the back of the fan once both are hooked up clear the area and connect to the battery if the fan runs its good check the relay for the cooling fan should find the placement of it in your manual bout 5 or 6 dollars @ your local auto store!!

go to the villager quest yahoo group site for assistance. It is just a motor with cables so something is restricting travel. Does it flip up to vent postiion ok?
