  • Jaguar Stud Removal

    My friend has a Jaguar. While he was trying to remove the top of the engine, he broke the head of one of the studs. He told me that there is a tool to fix it, but it has a patent on it and he can't find who has it.

    Do you know of anyone who has this tool.

  • transmission - '97 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    11 Comments: Join In!

    I have a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo (V8) with about 75,000 miles on it. Lately, I've noticed
    a hesitation in the shift sequence of the automatic transmission when I get to 40-45 mph.
    In addition, when I take my foot off the gas at about 50-55 mph, the vehicle seems to decelerate
    too quickly -- almost as if it were towing something. As it decelerates, I've noticed that the rpms
    decrease, then spike momentarily. It is almost as if I'm downshifting in a manual transmission.
    Any advice?

  • At times car won't start for hours plus airbag light is on!

    I have a 1999 Daewoo Lanos automatic. I brought this car used about 20 months ago. It has only 36,000+ miles. About 3 weeks ago, when starting the car, at times it just clicks and won't start. On two occasions it would not start at all, it just clicked but the next day it would start after 5 to 10 tries.
    I took it back to the dealership where I purchased it and they can't find anything wrong with it also though they have not hooked it up to any device to find out what the problem could be. They are just saying that the car start up when they try it. They are telling me they do have anyone that can work on this foreign car(I brought this car from a Buick dealership and they even sold me a service warranty on a car that they don't even know how to repair, so I think I got screwed). I called two Daewoo dealership in my area and they won't work on my car because I did not buy it new from them. But you are probably saying how absurd, she must be stretching the truth. But the senario is, Daewoo has filed bankruptcy and the Daewoo dealers can not get parts and they will only service the cars purchased from them and told me to take it back to the dealer where I purchased my car.
