Hi there. Some airbag light issues are related to wiring problems under seats that are constantly moving. This is more of an issue with side impact airbags than any other type of airbag but it would still trigger the error...
Hi there. The temperatures you've indicated are a bit higher than they should be. In most cases, this is due to a radiator that is wearing out or not having the correct ratio of coolant to distilled water inside the...
Hello, thank you for writing in. Modern vehicles do not use freon on the air conditioning systems. They use a new type of refrigerant that is far less harmful to humans and the environment. If you used actual freon instead...
You can certainly use transmission stop leak, however depending on how bad the leak is or the amount of pressure coming from the leak, this may be only a temporary fix. I would suggest having a professional from YourMechanic come...
Hello, thank you for writing in. To get an official quote, you will want to contact our service department. I can tell you that replacing the oxygen sensor can cost from $100-200. The evap canister can be more expensive, but...
It is possible that your starter could be overheating somehow while you are driving. Perhaps the gear does not disengage from the flexplate causing the starter gear to spin all the time. I would recommend having the starter replaced if...
This may be a sign of a faulty MAP sensor as the vehicle responds adversely to a load put on the motor (i.e. putting it in gear, turning on AC or engaging the brakes). The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor...
Hi there. When the wheel stops spinning or is sticking while accelerating, it's usually caused by one of three problems. Either the ABS system is malfunctioning, the brake caliper is sticking or the wheel bearing is damaged. Either of these...
Hi there. It really depends on where the chirping noise is coming from and when it occurs that would determine if this is related to the recent service you had completed. In most cases, if the noise occurs when you...
Hi there. In many cases, this is cause by an obstruction of fluid inside the hydraulic lines of the transmission. Flushing the transmission fluid and changing the filter may resolve the problem. However, it's also possible that a shift solenoid...
Hi there. Typically engine overheating and issues you are describing are caused by damage that may have occurred during the overheating period. For example, if the engine cylinder heads got too hot, it's possible that the head gasket may have...
Hi there. Usually an issue as you've described is not caused by a battery issue. Typically when a car hesitates as you begin to accelerate it's due to a fuel delivery problem. In many cases it can be caused by...
The compressor should be checked for free operation (when the car is off) to make sure that the compressor is not seized or binding. If the compressor turns freely, there is something wrong with the "idle up" function on the...
Hi there. It's quite possible that the engine jump start may have triggered an error code or LIMP MODE to activate. In some cases, a jump may cause a situation where the relay or ignition system is overloaded; and as...
A seized a/c compressor can certainly make the engine difficult to start, if not start at all. To describe it in simple terms, the a/c compressor is similar to a mini engine. It can have chambers similar to engine cylinders...
Hi there. Unfortunately, we don't have the ability to receive photos to diagnose a problem or identify a part on this platform. If you were involved in an accident, and the part is on the outside of the vehicle (like...
P1684 indicates that the engine control unit / powertrain control module memory was cleared at some point within the last 50 ignition cycles - start/drive/turn off. If the battery was replaced or disconnected, it can leave this fault code in...
Hi there. It is quite possible that you have an exposed electrical wire or a short somewhere in the electrical system that is the root source of your starting issue. A fuse or relay will continue to break when the...
The problem sounds like you either have worn bearings or brakes. This will cause loss of power and noise would stop when vehicle is not moving. Have the front brakes and bearings checked by a mechanic like one from YourMechanic...
