Q: engine has developed a high pitched whine sound

Each door has an individual Lock knob directly above the door handle. Push this knob towards the front of the vehicle to lock that door, or push it towards the back of the vehicle to unlock that door.

That's interesting. I didn't know it that 35,000 dollars went out there. I have customers with the fancy Teslas and they paid like 85,000 up for their cars. That's too much money. If it's 35,000 dollars and it's getting an...

Hello, I would not recommend that you replace only the head gasket, because of the scoring on the cylinder walls that will still remain. This could lead to a loss of compression over time and cause the engine to run...

When you suspect a vacuum leak on the engine it may be a cracked hose or a gasket leak. The best way to find it is to use a hose to your ear and move around the engine intake and...

If prior to the work, no diagnostic trouble code was set (i.e., check engine light was not on) identifying a fault with the crankshaft position sensor, then the likelihood is they caused the problem. In any event, once the "cause"...
