    Airbag Recall

    These are photographs of the passenger and driver side airbag units after the new inflators were installed. Do these appear to be the final inflators for the recall? I would like to know before I put everything back together.

    Fumoto Valves for engine block coolant drains

    Has anyone installed the Fumoto valves for draining coolant from the engine block? If so what is the correct size to order. I have found it to be a bad experience. If no one has installed the valves does anyone have a suggestion to avoid the mess and taking a coolant shower? AJK

    I noticed after driven to full temperature and turning off engine after a short while I can hear a hissing sound from the engine coolant tank cap. The seal looks good and the cap is tightened correctly (click,click). Is this normal or do I have a bad cap. AJK

    Coolant and Electrolysis

    I tested the coolant with a multimeter set on DC 20 scale and get a reading higher than .1.

    Is this true regarding the engine management system?

    I copied this statement from a post I found when doing a search about the oil pump belt. "External pump is driven by a crankshaft belt which could fail and I am sure the engine monitoring system would shut down the engine immediately due to no oil pressure." Is it true that the engine...

    Replacing Trunk Latch

    If your remote doesn't release the trunk latch but the manual cable release works there could be something broken in the latch.
