It sounds like you are experiencing several different issues. If the engine hasn't ran since the transmission fluid was added, I would drain and refill the engine with new oil. The issue with not cranking could be your battery. A...
The data you are seeking, documenting relative frequency of failure of all the various powertrain components, is maintained by the scan tool manufacturers examples of which are Actron and Innova. These companies, as well as other scan tool makers, compile...
Hello. There appears to be three different locations for the control module depending on the chassis. The 4wd control module will either be found behind a kick panel on the passenger side, inside the dash, accessible by opening the glove...
Hi, thank you for writing in. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), the codes that can be downloaded and read when your Check Engine Light comes on, do not identify the exact parts that need replacement. DTC's are simply "good clues" that...
Hi there. The black wire behind the dash is your ground wire, which should have been connected to a bolt or screw that contacts the bare metal of the car's chassis. If this is not connected, the stereo will not...
This may be a result of a faulty oxygen sensor reading as a result of your exhaust system (presumably your catalytic converter) not operating effectively. As you may know the oxygen sensors which are part of your emissions system read...
Hi there. Unfortunately, this appears to be another auto parts store misdiagnosis issue. The charging system of your vehicle is much more than just the battery. It is likely that a different component such as the battery cables, battery temperature...
Hello. The symptoms you are experiencing can be caused by a variety of issues. The first thing I would check is the pressure of the system, as a system that is low on refrigerant may not produce cold air. I...
Thanks for writing in about the squeaking sound coming form your 2007 Porsche Boxster. Typically this type of noise is related to a loose alternator or serpentine belt, but commonly appears during acceleration as opposed to deceleration as you're...
Hello. I think you may have a problem with the cold start valve not dumping the proper amount of fuel to allow the car to start and remain running on a cold start. The distributor should be checked as well...
Hi there - to respond to your specific question, the answer is to use a higher temperature brake pad material (like a ceramic or carbon brake pad) - rather than a different rotor for your rather heavy vehicle. The brakes...
Hello - regarding the transmission "sticking in Park", worn or sticking shifter linkage could be preventing the transmission from shifting into Reverse. A simple way to test this is to move the gearshift lever from Park to Neutral, then from...
Be sure any engine immobilizer system (security system) is not activated, thus preventing the car from starting. "New" batteries are not necessarily fully charged when you buy them over the counter. Consequently, it has to be confirmed that the battery...
An engine is stalling inspection will reveal the cause. When the vehicle is cold, the mixture has to be enriched in order for the engine to run initially. That enrichment signal is sent (to the fuel injectors) if the appropriate...
Depending on whether or not any fluid was spilled or if you have a leak somewhere, this may cause the car to smell a bit like transmission fluid. Assuming you did not spill and you do not have any leaks,...
Hi There, Generally, the check engine light comes on when something fairly serious is going on with the vehicle. This can happen for many different reasons such as a faulty mass air flow sensor, a faulty O2 sensor, a bad...
Hello. For specific part numbers I would refer to to the Hyundai Motors website. From there you should be able to locate your region, which should offer some sort of technical support or contact through an email or separate website....
Hi there. With having the code P2006 present, check the intake wiring to the runner control and see if there is a good connection. Also, the runners in the intake could be clogged and needs cleaned out. A leaking or...
Hey there. This is one of the toughest decisions in starting a classic car restoration project. Rust is relentless. The absolute "best way" to deal with rust is to disassemble the car, have it media blasted, or acid-dipped, then immediately...
Unfortunately, the information you provided about your Dodge Durango is very limited, and I will be unable to make a proper diagnosis at this time. I would recommend enlisting the assistance of a certified mechanic and including as much information...
