This is the last odo pic from Vger, my '00 Voyager and source of my username, taken Jan 1st. 19 miles later the tranny grenaded (it was on borrowed time), and she went to the scrapyard.

Not mine but too funny!

FL here too. Crazy pollen! Car lives outside. With a decent wax job and otherwise clean car (i.e. no driving through rain, puddles, or mud since last wash), a California car duster has worked well for me to get the pollen off. I hit it at least every couple of days but it only takes 2 minutes max.

I had to replace the vents and passenger door motors on my '00 Voyager. Don't bother with the Dorman vent motors, they are junk -- I made that mistake. Pay once and buy OEM.

You need to put a guage on the low side before adding refrigerant. If reads high, adding more refrigerant will not help and could cause further damage.

Sounds like the below ( linky here ) : What does it mean when the low-side is high, and the high-side is low? a weak ac compressor shows as insuficient change from side to side The compressor lowers the low-side pressure and raises the high-side to remove heat from the vehicle. A damaged...

Captured this recently.

Same thing happened to me recently on my '00 Voyager w/the 3.0. Turned out to be a dirty sender. Blew it out with some compressed air and problem solved.
