Yep. Definately the bearings. I took my car to a tire shop to get some stuff done and I got everything done except an alignment due to my bearings on the front drivers side. Also the axle on the front passenger needs replacing, badly, so that's gonna be an expensive job. Money money money makees...

I noticed that car has been making very loud to moderately loud noises while im on the road. I dont know if it has to do with my engine having a 5W-30 synthetic oil in this 95-106 degree weather during the day or if its something else. Also I noticed my breaks werent working as good as they were...

I notice that sometimes when my car sits overnight and I use it in the morning or whenever that my gas meter shows that I have a little less gas than the night before. I don't have a gas leak underneath at all so im puzzled. Is my gas cap wearing and causing some fuel to evaporate out overnight?

Car thats in my sig. '87 Camry, 2.0L 4-cyl. 16v. Just wanted to do some nice cleaning since it wasnt taken care of too well, I believe, before I got it.

I added a bottle of Regane to the fuel about 140 miles ago but I only noticed a slight improvement with the way the car ran until today. It actually suprised me a bit. Does it usually take Regane that long to actually kick in? And when I changed my oil about 500 miles ago with PP I added a pint...

I just refilled yesterday. I calculated 34 mpg to my usual 32. I picked up an application for Shell's "Drive For 5" gas cards while I was at it.

I wouldnt have a clue unless it was something obvious. I wish I was knowledgeable like the rest of you.

Picked up 5W-30 PP for $15 and changed my oil. It just about fixed my cold start problems. So far atleast. The car cranks up and sounds ready to go on one try. Hopefully itll stay that way.

I filled up with a little over 7 gallons at Shell yesterday and, even though my gauge gets innacurate at some point, it seems the gas gauge isnt goin' down as fast as it would with Exxon or Chevron. I'll see what my gas mileage is compared to when I get inbetween 32 and 33 mpg with Chevron and...

I tried shout last night and I believe I sprayed areas that I wasnt suppose to. It degreased the engine and other areas that had buildup and all really good. But some areas were still dirty like hoses and other parts. And about me spraying wrong areas, afterwards my didnt start for a while. Then...

Originally Posted By: fdcg27 Your best bet might be to simply purchase the entire piece from a junkyard car, if you can find one. Does the A/C work on the higher settings? If so, you have a resistor problem in the switch. If not, it is probably not going to be inexpensive to simply fix the...

Thanks. I didn't want to waste my time buying freon if that wasnt the problem. Ill get that checked out either this saturday or next monday. I really need my a/c working so my 7 mnth son wont be sweating all the time when he rides with me.

I get paid this week and I was going to take my car to the shop so they can check out the problem and have it fixed. What I notice is that the a/c nor heater turns on when I press the two lowest settings. It only turns on for high and very high. The heater works perfectly fine(well the two...

Yesterday I went to an Exxon at a close neighboring city and paid $2.62. The Chevron about a half mile away was $2.61. Their prices are always lower than my cities. I paid $2.69 at an Exxon in my city. Highest price in my town is $2.78(ripoff really the rest of the Shell's are cheaper) at a...

Or would a half quart of PHM be ok?
