    I just bought a used 4-runner. It has after market rims on it. The problem I have is it has those anti theft lug nuts on it,But the car came from auction and the special lug nut wrench made to remove those security lug nuts is not any where to be found.How can I find a wrench to remove them? Or is there a way to get them off without one? I'll just put regular lug nuts on if I can get these off.

  • SQUEAKY FAN BELT

    I have a squeaky fan belt. I put belt dressing on it and it got worse. I read somewhere that brake fluid will remove the squeak because it penetrates and softens the belt. Any recommendations

    Turned off my car heater yesterday and it stays off. I don't seem to have a fuse for it and fuses all look ok. Why would it do that? Possibly the off switch is broken but it seems to move okay. Didn't have any problems when I turned it off - did not have to force it. Just curious.

  • Re: Car Shakes at high speeds, and brake pedal shakes when i push it to stop

    I have a '93 Pontiac Grand Am, about 130,000 miles. When im driving on the highway and reach about 65-70mph my car shakes violently, it shakes alot more when i turn to the right, and when i turn to the left it doesnt shake as much.
    Also, when i push the brake pedal the pedal and the car shakes, the faster i go and push the brakes the harder the pedal and car will shake. When im pulling up to a Red light at slow speeds i push the brakes and it feels like there a lump or something on the brake pad and everytime it like goes over it the pedal shakes and the car kinda jerks. Please Help :)

    I just replaced the back suspension air bags in my Lincoln towncar, the problem I have is that It now does not go up automatically as it used to. I can't find out what's wrong.

  • Honda Civic LX - Overheating

    3 Comments: Join In!

    I have a '94 Honda Civic with 165K miles. It starts to overheat when driving but when then the gauge goes down when stopped. All fluids have been topped off and the thermostat replaced, but still does it. Non-Honda dealer said that they think the head ga$ket could have problems and is plugging up the combustion chamber not allowing the coolant to flow through the engine. I asked about the radiator, but no response. Am I getting my chain yanked or could this be a legitimate explanation for what is going on? I've never had problems with the car in the past and it's been running perfectly fine until today. HELP!!! I can't afford a new car!
